Selected issues of the concept of spontaneous collapse are discussed, with the emphasis on the gravity-related model. We point out that without spontaneous collapses the Schr\"odinger cat states would macroscopically violate the standard…

A detailed analysis of the dynamics of unstable modes present in the linearized Navier-Stokes-Fourier system in the presence of a gravitational field is carried out. The transition between the non-dissipative and dissipative regimes is…

In the present article we carry out a molecular dynamics study of the core-softened system and show that the existence of the water-like anomalies in this system depends on the trajectory in $P-\rho-T$ space along which the behavior of the…

We study the collapse of an attractive atomic Bose-Einstein condensate prepared in the uniform potential of an optical-box trap. We characterise the critical point for collapse and the collapse dynamics, observing universal behaviour in…

The "melting" of self-formed rigid structures made of a small number of interacting classical particles confined in an irregular two-dimensional space is investigated using Monte Carlo simulations. It is shown that the interplay of…
