Abstract

We review the properties of simple diatomic molecular glasses as explored by nuclear magnetic resonance techniques and measurements of the dielectric susceptibility. We focus on the behavior of classical molecular rotors formed by solid N2–Ar mixtures and discuss the time dependent behavior in terms of replica symmetry breaking theories.
