We consider a multiscale strategy addressing the disparate scales in the Landau-Lifschitz equations in micromagnetism. At the microscopic scale, the dynamics of magnetic moments are driven by a high frequency field. On the macroscopic scale we are interest ...
We discuss grand canonical simulations based on density-functional theory to study the thermodynamic properties of electrochemical interfaces of metallic electrodes in aqueous environments. Water is represented using implicit solvation, here via the self-c ...
Overprediction of fine-particle ammonium-sulfate molar ratios (R) by thermodynamic models is suggested as evidence for interactions with organic constituents that inhibit the equilibration of gas-phase ammonia with aerosol sulfate and questions the equilib ...
Max-stable random fields are very appropriate for the statistical modelling of spatial extremes. Hence, integrals of functions of max-stable random fields over a given region can play a key role in the assessment of the risk of natural disasters, meaning t ...
Disparities between the measured concentrations of ice-nucleating particles (INPs) and in-cloud ice crystal number concentrations (ICNCs) have led to the hypothesis that mechanisms other than primary nucleation form ice in the atmosphere. Here, we model th ...
The effects of plasma shaping, in particular of the triangularity delta, on plasma turbulence, in terms of relative density fluctuations, have been studied in the TCV tokamak. It has been found that for inner wall limited L-mode plasmas, negative triangula ...
The rapid rise of organic-inorganic lead halide perovskites has amazed the photovoltaic community. As the efficiency race continues for this revolutionary class of light-harvesting materials, many questions on the structural, electronic and optical propert ...
Monte Carlo simulations are the foundational technique for predicting thermodynamic properties of open systems where the process of interest involves the exchange of particles. Thus, they have been used extensively to computationally evaluate the adsorptio ...
There is still lack of knowledge about the aerosols physics and chemistry and consequently their impact on climate and health. The complexity of involved chemical interactions makes the characterization of these particles with experimental studies challeng ...
This article describes the realization of a novel approach to short pulse (∼1 ns) reflectometry (SPR) recently implemented in the tokamak configuration variable tokamak. Taking advantage of a fast arbitrary waveform generator and vector-network-analyzer ex ...
