24. β where the β-relaxation occurs at 1 Hz. While the present aging temperature for xylitol fulfills this condition, in glycerol and PC this may not be the case (see [6] for information on the β-relaxation in these materials). However, Struick mainly treated polymers and his arguments are based on the interpretation of the β-relaxation as motions of side-groups or parts of chain segments. Thus most likely they cannot be generalized to non-polymeric glass formers, where the β-relaxation mostly is believed to be of intermolecular origin.

60. For comparing relaxation times from different evaluations, it is helpful to plot the average relaxation times instead of the fit parameters τ. For the CD-function, the average relaxation time is given by 〈τ〉 = τβ. For the HN function 〈τ〉 is not defined. As the HN function in the present case of xylitol is rather close to a CD function (small parameter α), 〈τ〉 ≈ τβ was used.
