The size-dependent liquid-vapor surface tension controls phase change, wetting, and transport at nanoscales, yet its first curvature correction, the Tolman length, remains difficult to determine. We develop a thermodynamic and…

Separating turbulent fluctuations from coherent large-scale background flows is a longstanding challenge in the analysis of numerical simulations and astronomical observations. Traditional approaches commonly rely on decomposition-based…

We investigate the statistical accuracy of temporally interpolated spatiotemporal flow sequences between sparse, decorrelated snapshots of turbulent flow fields using conditional Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DDPMs). The…

We report on the observation of gravity-capillary wave turbulence on the surface of a fluid in a high-gravity environment. By using a large-diameter centrifuge, the effective gravity acceleration is tuned up to 20 times the Earth gravity.…

We present a new set of analytic models for the expansion of HII regions powered by UV photoionisation from massive stars and compare them to a new suite of radiative magnetohydrodynamic simulations of turbulent, self-gravitating molecular…
