We propose a generic uncertainty relationship for cross-diffusion (quasi-soliton) waves triggered by local instabilities through Thermo-Hydro-Mechano-Chemical (THMC) coupling and cross-scale feedbacks. Cross-diffusion waves nucleate when…

Recently, Squire & Hopkins (2017) showed any coupled dust-gas mixture is subject to a class of linear 'resonant drag instabilities' (RDI). These can drive large dust-to-gas ratio fluctuations even at arbitrarily small dust-to-gas mass…

Simple states, such as isobaric analog states or giant resonances, embedded into continuum are typical for mesoscopic many-body quantum systems. Due to the coupling to compound states in the same energy range, a simple mode acquires a…

Approximate symmetries abound in Nature. If these symmetries are also spontaneously broken, the would-be Goldstone modes acquire a small mass, or inverse correlation length, and are referred to as pseudo-Goldstones. At nonzero temperature,…
