Mean-field theory of temperature cycling experiments in spin-glasses
We study analytically the effect of temperature cyclings in mean-field
spin-glasses. In accordance with real experiments, we obtain a strong
reinitialization of the dynamics on decreasing the temperature combined with
memory effects when the original high temperature is restored. The same
calculation applied to mean-field models of structural glasses shows no such
reinitialization, again in accordance with experiments. In this context, we
derive some relations between experimentally accessible quantities and propose
new experimental protocols. Finally, we briefly discuss the effect of field
cyclings during isothermal aging.Comment: Some misprints corrected, references updated, final version to apper

Slow dynamics and aging in spin-glasses
Contribution presented by Eric Vincent in the Conference `Complex Behaviour
of Glassy Systems', Sitges, Barcelona, Spain, June, 1996. It contains a review
of the experimental results on Slow dynamics and aging in spin-glasses. It also
presents their comparison with recent theoretical developments in the
description of the out of equilibrium dynamics of disordered systems; namely,
the trap model and the mean-field theory.Comment: 35 pages, 12 figures, macro lmamult.sty (included
