Abstract
Combining the intermediate scattering function of the center of mass and that of individual atoms obtained by molecular dynamics simulation, we devise a method of analyzing the contribution of the internal motion in the relaxation process. We apply the analysis to the relaxation process of a model diatomic molecular system in the supercooled state and show that the rotational motion gives rise to the slow relaxation compatible with the Johari–Goldstein process.
