Starting from a classical Budyko-Sellers-Ghil energy balance model for the average surface temperature of the Earth, a nonautonomous version is designed by allowing the solar irradiance and the cloud cover coefficients to vary with time in…

Conventional phase-field models often drive solid-solid interfaces to coalesce when in close proximity. This feature limits their use for processes like diffusion bonding, where the interfaces might need to remain distinct under certain…
Within the framework of thermofield dynamics, we construct a thermalized coherent thermal state, which is a general type of the coherent state with the thermal effects and can be presumably produced experimentally. The wavefunction and the…
Most of our current understanding of phase separation is based on ideas that disregard correlaions. Here we illuminate unexpected effects of correlations on the structure and thermodynamics of interfaces and in turn phase separation, which…
A new approach to the Helmholtz spectrum for arbitrarily shaped boundaries and a rather general class of boundary conditions is introduced. We derive the boundary induced change of the density of states in terms of the free Green's function…
