A gradient of a single salt in a solution generates an electric field, but not a current. Recent theoretical work by one of us [Phys. Rev. Lett. 24, 248004 (2020)] showed that the Nernst-Planck equations imply that crossed gradients of two…

Electron tomography has become a commonly used tool to investigate the three-dimensional (3D) structure of nanomaterials, including colloidal nanoparticle assemblies. However, electron microscopy is typically carried out under high vacuum…

Paints and coatings often feature interfacial defects due to disturbances during the deposition process which, if they persist until solidification, worsen the product quality. In this article, we investigate the stability of a thin liquid…

We propose a novel approach for deformation-aware neural networks that learn the weighting and synthesis of dense volumetric deformation fields. Our method specifically targets the space-time representation of physical surfaces from liquid…

A wide range of techniques can be considered for segmentation of images of nanostructured surfaces. Manually segmenting these images is time-consuming and results in a user-dependent segmentation bias, while there is currently no consensus…

Liquids in contact with solids are submitted to intermolecular forces making liquids heterogeneous and, in a mechanical model, the stress tensor is not any more spherical as in homogeneous bulks. The aim of this article is to show that a…

We investigate a number of complex patterns driven by the electro-convection instability in a planarly aligned layer of a nematic liquid crystal. They are traced back to various secondary instabilities of the ideal roll patterns bifurcating…

Matter at intermediate baryon densities and low temperatures is notoriously hard to tackle theoretically. Whereas lattice methods cannot cover more than rather small densities, perturbative methods are only applicable at much higher…

When salts are added to water, the viscosity generally increases suggesting the ions increase the strength of the water's hydrogen-bond network. However, infrared pump-probe measurements on electrolyte solutions have found that ions have no…

The increased sensitivity of future radio telescopes will result in requirements for higher dynamic range within the image as well as better resolution and immunity to interference. In this paper we propose a new matrix formulation of the…

The investigation of fragile and potentially inhomogeneous forms of ferromagnetic order under extreme conditions, such as low temperatures and high pressures, is of central interest for areas such as geophysics, correlated electron systems,…

We present a general formalism to treat slowly rotating general relativistic superfluid neutron stars. As a first approximation, their matter content can be described in terms of a two-fluid model, where one fluid is the neutron superfluid,…
