Order-disorder structural transitions are a common occurrence for a number of everyday systems and play an important role in the vortex matter of a superconductor however their structure can be complex to understand. Here, the authors combine surface and bulk vortex imaging techniques to investigate the structural properties of the vortex glass phase in a type II superconductor and demonstrate the physics is relevant to other glass systems.
