We analyze the dynamics of crystal surfaces in the presence of electromigration. From a phase field model with a migration force which depends on the local geometry, we derive a step model with additional contributions in the kinetic…

Diffusion can be strongly affected by ballistic flights (long jumps) as well as long-lived sticking trajectories (long sticks). Using statistical inference techniques in the spirit of Granger causality, we investigate the appearance of long…

We predict that oblique breathers can be generated by a flow of two-component Bose-Einstein condensate past a polarized obstacle which attracts one component of the condensate and repels the other one. The breather exists if intra-species…
