The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

The elastic properties, elastic models and elastic perspectives of metallic glasses (2012, methodology): “The comparison of the change of quadrupole frequency induced by minor tuning of Co concentration shows the change and evolution of cluster symmetry of the Al-centered icosahedral clusters, which is the predominant structural building block according to the structure model [89,90,267].”
Atomic-level structure and structure–property relationship in metallic glasses (2011, methodology): “[152] and their observations of efficient packing of quasi-equivalent solute-centered clusters partly corroborates the hypothetical structural model proposed by Miracle [221].”
Recent Advancements in Bulk Metallic Glasses and Their Applications: A Review (2018, background): “the local structural units beyond the nearest-neighbour short-range order—is the medium range order (MRO) reported by Miracle.(5) In this model “solute-centered atomic clusters” are assumed as the local structural elements that are idealized as spheres and via efficient pack-”
