The jamming of bi-disperse soft core disks is considered, using a variety of different protocols to produce the jammed state. In agreement with other works, we find that cooling and compression can lead to a broad range of jamming packing…
Low-frequency axial oscillations (5-50 kHz) stand out as a pervasive feature observed in many types of Hall thrusters. While it is widely recognized that the ionization effects play the central role in this mode, as manifested via the large…
Magnetic whirls in chiral magnets, so-called skyrmions, can be manipulated by ultrasmall current densities. Here we study both analytically and numerically the interactions of a single skyrmion in two dimensions with a small hole in the…
We show that the Hall scale in a weakly ionized plasma depends on the fractional ionization of the medium and, Hall MHD description becomes important whenever the ion-neutral collision frequency is comparable to the ion-gyration frequency,…
We study role of the Hall diffusion in the magnetic star-disc interaction. In a simplified steady state configuration, the total torque is calculated in terms of the fastness parameter and a new term because of the Hall diffusion. We show…

We investigate the dynamics of a point-like active particle suspended in fluid flow through a straight channel. For this particle-fluid system, we derive a constant of motion for a general unidirectional fluid flow, and apply it to an…
Recent advances in understanding of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence call for revisions in the picture of particle acceleration. We make use of the recently established scaling of slow and fast MHD modes in strong and weak MHD…
The spin Hall effect is a phenomenon that an electric field induces a spin Hall current. In this Letter, we examine the inverse effect that, in a ferromagnetic conductor, a charge Hall current is induced by a spin motive force, or a…
Chiral fermionic quasiparticles emerge in certain quantum condensed matter systems such as Weyl semimetals, topological insulators, and spin-orbit coupled noncentrosymmetric metals. Here, a comprehensive theory of the chiral anomaly-induced…

In certain circumstances, chiral (parity-violating) medium can be described hydrodynamically as a chiral fluid with microscopic quantum anomalies. Possible examples of such systems include strongly coupled quark-gluon plasma, liquid helium…
The Hall effect has been studied in a series of AuFe samples in the re-entrant concentration range, as well as in the spin glass range. The data demonstrate that the degree of canting of the local spins strongly modifies the anomalous Hall…
Employing theory and numerical simulations, we demonstrate discontinuous force thinning due to the motion of an external probe in a host medium, which we approximate as structureless. When the driving of the probe exceeds a critical force,…
When an electron moves in a smoothly varying non-collinear magnetic structure, its spin-orientation adapts constantly, thereby inducing forces that act on both the magnetic structure and the electron. These forces may be described by…
