Non-Abelian band topology in noninteracting metals

Electron energy bands of crystalline solids generically exhibit degeneracies called band-structure nodes. Here, we introduce non-Abelian topological charges that characterize line nodes inside the momentum space of crystalline metals with space-time invers ...

A Moment‐Based Kinetic Model for Efficient Numerical Implementation

Paolo Ricci, Rogério Manuel Cabete De Jesus Jorge, Baptiste Jimmy Frei

A drift-kinetic and a gyrokinetic model able to describe the plasma dynamics in the tokamak periphery are presented, which take into account electromagnetic fluctuations at all relevant scales, allowing for comparable amplitudes of background and fluctuati ...

Force measurement of a gas-assisted atomization using an impulse probe

Farzad Vakili Farahani

The main objective of this study was to develop further insight into the mass flux characterization of an effervescent atomization. The spray is injected through an industrial effervescent nozzle, and is measured using a newly developed coupled PDPA + IS m ...

Non-reciprocal magnons in non-centrosymmetric MnSi

Gregory Scott Tucker

Using two cold-neutron triple-axis spectrometers we have succeeded in fully mapping out the field-dependent evolution of the non-reciprocal magnon dispersion relations in all magnetic phases of MnSi. The non-reciprocal nature of the dispersion manifests it ...

What Waterfalls and Kitchen Sinks have in Common: A Comparison between Vertical and Horizontal Supported Jets

In plunging jets and at hydraulic jumps, large amounts of air bubbles are entrained at the impingement of the liquid jet and receiving body (BIN, 1993; ERVINE, 1998; CHANSON, 2009a). Air is entrapped and advected into a turbulent shear layer with strong in ...

Hydraulic performance evaluation of a micro-turbine with counter rotating runners by experimental investigation and numerical simulation

François Avellan, Elena Vagnoni, Cécile Münch-Alligné, Loïc Andolfatto

The development of energy recovery systems on existing water utility networks is a new challenge for increasing the sustainability of electricity generation mix. The concept of the new micro-turbine with counter rotating runners braces this goal by allowin ...

Experimental study of viscoplastic avalanches striking a water body using PIV techniques.

Zhenzhu Meng

A recurrent problem in avalanche engineering is related to impulse waves induced by snow avalanches striking a water basin. We took a first step toward the avalanche dynamics when falling into water by using a viscoplastic material that mimics avalanches. ...

Dirac nodal lines and flat-band surface state in the functional oxide RuO2

Arnaud Magrez, Helmuth Berger, Philippe Bugnon, Simon Karl Moser

The efficiency and stability of RuO2 in electrocatalysis has made this material a subject of intense fundamental and industrial interest. The surface functionality is rooted in its electronic and magnetic properties, determined by a complex interplay of la ...

Depth-averaged momentum equation for gravity currents with varying density: coefficient in pressure term

Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sara Venuleo

Gravity currents are often modelled by means of shallow water equations (SWEs). In these models, simplifications such as the consideration of a constant layer-averaged density are common. This note presents the complete and general derivation of a 2D depth ...
