At the interface with solids, liquid molecules tend to adopt a particular structural arrangement, which depends on the local interplay of forces between the solid and the liquid. As a result, this interfacial liquid does not behave like bulk liquid, often ...

The size of a series of typical substituents has been probed by dynamic NMR measurements of the barriers to aryl-aryl rotation of the corresponding biphenyls. The resulting B values are meaningful because only mono-ortho substituted compounds were investig ...
We investigate the properties of the Heisenberg S = 1 chain with bilinear and biquadratic interactions in a magnetic field using the density-matrix renormalization-group, Bethe ansatz, and field-theoretical considerations. In a large region of the paramete ...
The growth kinetics advantage of twinned aluminum dendrites over regular ones is still an unsolved problem of solidification. Although it is linked to the tip geometry, the influence of a coherent (1 1 1) twin plane on a < 1 1 0 > twinned dendrite tip is u ...
Liquid-phase sintering (LPS) is an industrial process used to consolidate materials composed of two different kinds of metallic and/or ceramic powders. At constant temperature, the amount of the present liquid-phase is constant. However, the shape of parti ...
We introduce a novel tuning mechanism for optofluidic devices by embedding pressure driven actuator inside microfluidic chips. Multiple tunable optofluidic devices remotely controlled by the pressure of air or liquid were demonstrated. ...
Molecular-dynamics simulations are presented for two correlation functions formed with the partial density fluctuations of binary hard-sphere mixtures in order to explore the effects of mixing on the evolution of glassy dynamics upon compressing the liquid ...
The charge "belonging" to a given atom in a condensed system is not a measurable quantity, and can be defined only by means of some arbitrary model and/or theory: the static dipole (or multipole) associated with a given molecule in a molecular solid or liq ...
The immense diversity of microbial life found in the vadose zone reflects the extremely heterogeneous and highly dynamic aquatic and chemical environments formed within soil pore spaces. The notion of planktonian free swimming microbes is unrealistic under ...
While studies of solidification microstructures have focused mainly on the tips of the dendrites, the last stage solidification is equally important from the point of view of defect formation (porosity, hot tearing), mechanical strength build-up and precip ...
