Metastable fluids exhibit heterogeneous dynamics as well as heterogeneous structure [1]. These dynamical and structural heterogeneities play an important role in the understanding of the glass transition and crystallization. Simulations suggest that these heterogeneities in dynamics and structure are linked, but the direct experimental proof is still lacking [2]. Using space- and time-resolved dynamic light scattering and time-resolved multi angle static light scattering [3], we study the dynamics and structure in a model system of colloidal hard spheres during crystallization and vitrification. For the first time, direct correlation between the temporal evolution of the dynamical heterogeneities and the structural heterogeneities was obtained from an analysis of the subensemble resolved particle dynamics and the evolution of the static structure factor.
