A general description of proton form factors is presented, in the whole kinematical region. The existing data and selected phenomenological models are briefly discussed.
A brief summary of recent developments in mathematical diffraction theory is given. Particular emphasis is placed on systems with aperiodic order and continuous spectral components. We restrict ourselves to some key results and refer to the…
This is not in any way meant to be a complete survey on positive curvature. Rather it is a short essay on the fascinating changes in the landscape surrounding positive curvature. In particular, details and many results and references are…
After sketching recent advances and subtleties in classical relativistically covariant field theories, we give in this short Note some indications as to how the deformation quantization approach can be used to solve or at least give a…
This paper focuses on rotational phenomena of rigid body kinematics. It discusses them in a group-theoretic approach as completely as possible, using methods and notations as intuitive as possible. With a review of current literature, this…
We review the models developed and techniques used in recent years to study the kinetics of phase ordering in a class of complex fluids, namely, ternary microemulsions and micellar solutions.
We describe the percolation model and some of the principal results and open problems in percolation theory. We also discuss briefly the spectacular recent progress by Lawler, Schramm, Smirnov and Werner towards understanding the phase…
Introduction to the theory of decoherence. Contents: 1. The phenomenon of decoherence: superpositions, superselection rules, decoherence by "measurements". 2. Observables as a derivable concept. 3. The measurement problem. 4. Density…
I partially review our current knowledge on microquasars, making special emphasis on radio interferometric observations, and I comment on emerging trends in this field of astrophysics.
Direct comparison is made of the steady-sates and coarsening dynamics in a local system and its nonlocal generalization. The example system is the surface of a solid film in a strong electric field; the morphological evolution of the…
We introduce the special issue on the Statistical Mechanics of Climate published on the Journal of Statistical Physics by presenting an informal discussion of some theoretical aspects of climate dynamics that make it a topic of great…
For the first time the phenomenon of cellular structure coarsening are consistently analysed from the positions of kinetic, hydrodynamic and stochastodynamic theories of nonequilibrium statistical systems. Thereby micro-, meso- and…
The present material covers the features of large scale ring dynamics in perturbed flows that were not addressed in part 1 (astro-ph/1606.00759); this includes an extensive coverage of all kinds of ring modes dynamics (except density waves…
The new version will be updated soon.
An interface description and numerical simulations of model A kinetics are used for the first time to investigate the intra-surface kinetics of phase ordering on corrugated surfaces. Geometrical dynamical equations are derived for the…
The study of synchronization of coupled systems is currently undergoing a major surge fueled by recent discoveries of new forms of collective dynamics and the development of techniques to characterize a myriad of new patterns of network…
We comment on the recent paper "Magnetic Percolation and the Phase Diagram of the disordered RKKY model." D.J. Priour and S. Das Sarma, Phys Rev. Lett.{\bf 97}, 127201 (2006); cond-mat/0606532)
In this paper we study research trends in condensed matter physics. Trends are analyzed by means of the the number of publications in the different sub-fields as function of the years. We found that many research topics have a similar…
These lecture notes are meant to provide a pedagogical introduction, and present the latest theoretical and experimental developments on the physics of vortices in type II superconductors.
This article is an invitation. It is, first, an invitation to consider as a subject worthy of attention the wide range of situations where small discrete elements, either bubbles, droplets or solid particles, are embedded in turbulent…
