We propose a theory based on simple physical arguments that describes a non equilibrium steady-state by a temperature-like parameter (an "effective temperature"). We show how one can predict the effective temperature as a function of the…
The contact interaction is often used in modeling ultracold atomic gases, although it leads to pathological behavior arising from the divergence of the many-body wavefunction when two particles coalesce. This makes it difficult to use this…

Glasses have a large excess of low-frequency vibrational modes in comparison with continuous elastic body, the so-called Boson Peak, which appears to correlate with several crucial properties of glasses, such as transport or fragility. I…
