However, recent investigations from our group to examine structural recovery in thermosensitive colloidal dispersions have shown contrasting results between the colloidal and the molecular glasses.  To address the question, we resort to model calculations of structural recovery in a molecular glass under constant volume (isochoric) conditions following temperature only- and simultaneous volume- and temperature-jumps, which are closer to the volume fraction-jump conditions used in the thermosensitive-colloidal experiments.  The signatures of "intrinsic isotherms" and "asymmetry of approach" in the current isochoric model predictions are quite different from those in the classical isobaric conditions while the "memory" signatures remain essentially the same.  The determining interplay of thermodynamic phase variables in colloidal and molecular systems might be very different or at least their correlations are yet to be ascertained.
