We generalize the model of transition-metal nanocluster growth in aqueous solution, proposed recently [Phys. Rev. E \textbf{87}, 022132 (2013)]. In order to model time evolution of the system, kinetic equations describing time dependence of…
It is shown that the homogeneous cooling state (HCS) for a heavy impurity particle in a granular fluid supports two distinct phases. The order parameter $\phi$ is the mean square velocity of the impurity particle relative to that of a fluid…
We consider a variation of the Hastings-Levitov model HL(0) for random growth in which the growing cluster consists of two competing regions. We allow the size of successive particles to depend both on the region in which the particle is…
This model describes cluster aggregation in a stirred colloidal solution Interacting clusters compete for growth in this 'winner-takes-all' model; for finite assemblies, the largest cluster always wins, i.e. there is a uniform sediment. In…
