In this paper we study the metastable behavior of one of the simplest disordered spin system, the random field Curie-Weiss model. We will show how the potential theoretic approach can be used to prove sharp estimates on capacities and…
We propose a logical qubit based on the Blume-Capel model: a higher spin generalization of the Ising chain and which allows for an on-site anisotropy preserving rotational invariance around the Ising axis. We show that such a spin-3/2…
In simulations of the 2D Ising model, we examine heterogeneous nucleation induced by a small impurity consisting of a line of $l$ fixed spins. As $l$ increases, we identify a limit of stability beyond which the metastable phase is not…

A representation without explicit use of the isospin formalism is developed for the precise study of few-nucleon systems, and the advantages of the proposed approach are demonstrated. Using the example of three-nucleon systems with central…
The rates of activated processes, such as escape from a metastable state and nucleation, are exponentially sensitive to an externally applied field. We describe how this applies to modulation by high-frequency fields and illustrate it with…
