The helical absolute equilibrium of a compressible adiabatic flow presents not only the polarization between the two purely helical modes of opposite chiralities but also that between the vortical and acoustic modes, deviating from the…

Thermally bistable fluid tends to self-organize into clouds of hot and cold material, which are internally uniform and separated by thin conduction fronts. The evolution of these clouds has been studied for isobaric systems, but when…
We discuss the general framework for a perfect continuum medium in cosmology and show that an interesting generalization of the fluids normally used is for the medium to have rigidity and, hence, be analogous to an elastic solid. Such…
New tridimensional plasma structures, that are oscillatory and classified as non-separable ballooning modes, can emerge in inhomogeneous plasmas and undergo resonant mode-particle interactions, e.g., with a minority population, that can…

Viscosity, the resistance of a liquid to flow, is driven by atomic-scale friction but its microscopic origin remains poorly understood. We use a theoretical framework based on nonaffine linear response to decompose the viscosity of metallic…
