Application of a trace formula to the spectra of flat three-dimensional dielectric resonators

S. Bittner 1, E. Bogomolny 2, B. Dietz 3, M. Miski-Oglu 3, A. Richter 1, 4 Physical Review E 85 (2012) 026203 The length spectra of flat three-dimensional dielectric resonators of circular shape were determined from a microwave experiment. They were compared to a semiclassical trace formula obtained within a two-dimensional model based on the effective index of refraction approximation and a good agreement was found.

Aging of rotational diffusion in colloidal gels and glasses

S. Jabbari-Farouji 1, 2, G. H. Wegdam 2, Daniel Bonn 3 Physical Review E 86 (2012) 041401 We study the rotational diffusion of aging Laponite suspensions for a wide range of concentrations using depolarized dynamic light scattering. The measured orientational correlation functions undergo an ergodic to non-ergodic transition that is characterized by a concentration-dependent ergodicity-breaking time. We find that the relaxation times

A two-dimensional one component plasma and a test charge : polarization effects and effective potential

G. Téllez 1, E. Trizac 2 Journal of Statistical Physics 146 (2012) 832-849 We study the effective interactions between a test charge Q and a one-component plasma, i.e. a complex made up of mobile point particles with charge q, and a uniform oppositely charged background. The background has the form of a flat disk, in which the mobile charges
