A kinetic flux-splitting procedure used in conjunction with local thermodynamic equilibrium in a finite volume allows us to investigate numerically discrete-velocity gas flows. The procedure, outlined for a general discrete-velocity gas, is…
We study the non-equilibrium dynamics of cold atoms held in an optical lattice potential. The expansion of an initially confined atom cloud occurs in two phases: an initial quadratic expansion followed by a ballistic behaviour at long…

We experimentally investigate the impact of a flat, horizontal disk onto a boiling liquid, i.e., a liquid in thermal equilibrium with its vapor phase. We observe exceptionally high impact pressures deviating strongly from the inertial…
