Abstract: We present molecular dynamics simulation results of quenches into the unstable region of a two-dimensional Lennard-Jones system. The evolution of the system from the non-equilibrium state into equilibrium was analyzed with a dynamical block analysis. This can lead to a new approach in the study of non-equilibrium phenomena. We show that with such an analysis one can obtain results on the dynamic evolution as the system evolves, consistent with those obtained from and analysis of the pair-distribution function, structure factor and excess energy. The simulations were carried out on the parallel computer of the condensed matter theory group at the University of Mainz.
