ABSTRACT = {The processes of glass-transition and crystallization of chalcogenide glass As<sub>40</sub>Se<sub>30</sub>Te<sub>30</sub> 
with 5 at.% silver were analyzed using differential scanning calorimetry. The values of 
glass-transition temperatures and activation energy were determined. Two crystallization 
processes were also detected and three-dimensional growth. Using non-isoconversional 
models the activation energies for both processes amounted to 112(2) kJ/mol and 97(2) 
kJ/mol. Isoconversional models were used to track changes in activation energy. The 
presence of Te significantly affects the thermal parameters as well as the structure of the 
glass while the presence of Ag does not significantly change the degree of connectivity of 
the As<sub>40</sub>Se<sub>30</sub>Te<sub>30</sub> glass matrix.},
