Many glasses exhibit fractional power law (FPL) between the mean atomic volume v<sub>a</sub> and the first diffraction peak position q<sub>1</sub>, i.e. [Formula: see text] with d ≃ 2.5 deviating from the space dimension D = 3, under compression or composition change. What structural change causes such FPL and whether the FPL and d are universal remain controversial. Here our simulations show that the FPL holds in both two- and three-dimensional glasses under compression when the particle intera ...[more]
