English We present a rheology and light scattering study of the dynamical properties of dense emulsions at volume fractions ranging from viscous liquid to deeply jammed states. From temporally and spatially revolved dynamic light scattering we obtain detailed information about the internal dynamics. Our measurements thus allow a direct study of heterogeneous nature of the relaxation processes involved in jammed assembly of emulsion droplets.
