Pablo Rodriguez-Lopez 1 Thorsten Emig 1 Ehsan Noruzifar 2 Roya Zandi 3 Physical Review A, American Physical Society, 2015, pp.012516 Modifications of Casimir-Polder interactions due to confinement inside a cylindrical cavity and due to curvature in- and outside the cavity are studied. We consider a perfectly conducting cylindrical shell with a single particle (atom or […]

Angelika Knothe 1, 2 Thierry Jolicoeur 2 Physical Review B : Condensed matter and materials physics, American Physical Society, 2015, 92, pp.165110 Monolayer graphene at neutrality in the quantum Hall regime has many competing ground states with various types of ordering. The outcome of this competition is modified by the presence of the sample boundaries.

Satya N. Majumdar 1 Sanjib Sabhapandit 2 Gregory Schehr 1 Physical Review E : Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft Matter Physics, American Physical Society, 2015, 91, pp.052131 A stochastic process, when subject to resetting to its initial condition at a constant rate, generically reaches a non-equilibrium steady state. We study analytically how the steady state is

Andrea De Luca 1 Alberto Rosso 1 Physical Review Letters, American Physical Society, 2015, 115, pp.080401 Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) is to date the most effective technique to increase the nuclear polarization up to a factor $100,000$ opening disruptive perspectives for medical applications. In DNP, the nuclear spins are driven to an – out of

Andrey Y. Lokhov 1 Marc Mézard 2, 1 Lenka Zdeborová 3 Physical Review E, American Physical Society, 2015, 91, pp.012811 Understanding and quantifying the dynamics of disordered out-of-equilibrium models is an important problem in many branches of science. Using the dynamic cavity method on time trajectories, we construct a general procedure for deriving the dynamic

Jie Lin 1 Thomas Gueudré 2 Alberto Rosso 3 Matthieu Wyart 4 Physical Review Letters, American Physical Society, 2015, 115, pp.168001 Failure of amorphous solids is fundamental to various phenomena, including landslides and earthquakes. Recent experiments indicate that highly plastic regions form elongated structures that are especially apparent near the maximal shear stress $\Sigma_{\max}$ where

Jerome Dubail 1 Raoul Santachiara 2 Thorsten Emig 3, 2 EPL, European Physical Society/EDP Sciences/Società Italiana di Fisica/IOP Publishing, 2015, 112, pp.66004 To study the critical Casimir force between chemically structured boundaries immersed in a binary mixture at its demixing transition, we consider a strip of Ising spins subject to alternating fixed spin boundary conditions.
