The shear response of soft solids can be modeled with linear elasticity, provided the forcing is slow and weak. Both of these approximations must break down when the material loses rigidity, such as in foams and emulsions at their…

Bad metals display transport behavior that differs from what is commonly seen in ordinary metals. One of the most significant differences is a resistivity that is linear in temperature and rises to well above the Ioffe-Regel limit (where…

The departure from ideal gas behavior is described by several known equations of state (EoS), developed from a combination of theoretical considerations and experimental correlations. In this work a different approach is proposed, in which…
As a model of composite materials, a bundle of many fibers with stochastically distributed breaking thresholds for the individual fibers is considered. The bundle is loaded until complete failure to capture the failure scenario of composite…
In production processes, e.g. J/Psi -> omega-pi-pi or pbar-p -> 3pi, the sigma and fo(980) overlap in the same partial wave. The conjecture of Extended Unitarity (EU) states that the pi-pi pair should have the same phase variation as pi-pi…

The nuclear collective response is investigated in the framework of a doorway picture in which the spreading width of the collective motion is described as a coupling to more and more complex configurations. It is shown that this coupling…
Strange matter is believed to exist in the cores of neutron stars based on simple kinematics. If this is true, then hyperon-nucleon interactions will play a significant part in the neutron star equation of state (EOS). Yet, compared to…
