Stochastic particle transport by deep-water irregular breaking waves
Correct prediction of particle transport by surface waves is crucial in many practical applications such as search and rescue or salvage operations and pollution tracking and clean-up efforts. Recent results by Deike et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 829, 2017, ...
Cambridge2023Size dependence of second-harmonic scattering from nanoparticles: Disentangling surface and electrostatic contributions
Sylvie Roke, Arianna Marchioro, Bingxin Chu
Polarimetric angle-resolved second-harmonic scattering (AR-SHS) is an all-optical tool enabling the study of unlabeled interfaces of nano-sized particles in an aqueous solution. As the second harmonic signal is modulated by interference between nonlinear c ...
AIP Publishing2023Influence of Sphericity on Surface Termination of Icosahedral Colloidal Clusters
Colloids self-organize into icosahedral clusters composed of a Mackay core and an anti-Mackay shell under spherical confinement to minimize the free energy. This study explores the variation of surface arrangements of colloids in icosahedral clusters, focu ...
Weinheim2023Continuous monitoring of morphological changes from sediment augmentation by field measurements and flume experiments
Giovanni De Cesare, Christian Mörtl
In this study, we present results from continuous field monitoring and a flume ex-periment of a sediment augmentation measure in a residual flow reach of the Swiss midlands. A straight morphological channel with fixed bed material was constructed to repres ...
2023One-Shot Approach for Enforcing Piecewise Linearity on Hybrid Functionals: Application to Band Gap Predictions
Alfredo Pasquarello, Stefano Falletta, Jing Yang
We present an efficient procedure for constructing nonempirical hybrid functionals to accurately predict band gaps of extended systems. We determine mixing parameters by enforcing the generalized Koopmans’ condition on localized electron states, which are ...
2022Work fluctuations in the active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle model
We study the large deviations of the power injected by the active force for an active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle (AOUP), free or in a confining potential. For the free-particle case, we compute the rate function analytically in d-dimensions from a saddle- ...
IOP Publishing Ltd2021Roadmap on quantum nanotechnologies
Quantum phenomena are typically observable at length and time scales smaller than those of our everyday experience, often involving individual particles or excitations. The past few decades have seen a revolution in the ability to structure matter at the n ...
2021Implementation of energy transfer technique in ORB5 to study collisionless wave-particle interactions in phase-space
Laurent Villard, Emmanuel Lanti, Alberto Bottino, Noé Thomas Elie Ohana, Emanuele Poli
A new diagnostic has been developed to investigate the wave-particle interaction in the phase-space in gyrokinetic particle-in-cell codes. Keeping information about energy transfer terms in the velocity space, the technique has been implemented and tested ...
ELSEVIER2021Topology and broken Hermiticity
Topology and symmetry have emerged as compelling guiding principles to predict and harness the propagation of waves in natural and artificial materials. Be it for quantum particles (such as electrons) or classical waves (such as light, sound or mechanical ...
2020Persistent random walks of charged particles across magnetic field lines
Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Marcelo Baquero Ruiz, Fabian Manke
We investigate the time evolution of the mean location and variance of a charged particle subject to random collisions that are Poisson distributed. The particle moves on a plane and is subject to a magnetic field applied perpendicular to the plane, so it ...
