We examine the stability of ringlike configurations of N charges on a plane interacting through the potential $V(z_1,...,z_N)=\sum_i |z_i|^2-\sum_{i<j} ln|z_i-z_j|^2$. We interpret the equilibrium distributions in terms of a shell model and…

A many-electron conducting system undergoes free acceleration in response to a macroscopic field. The Drude weight $D$---also called charge stiffness---measures the adiabatic (inverse) inertia of the electrons; the $D$ formal expression…

Electrically charged systems bound by a strong gravitational force can sustain a huge amount of electric charge (up to 10^20C) against Coulomb repulsion. General relativistically such systems form a stable hydrostatic configuration both in…
