A challenge of molecular self-assembly is to understand how to design particles that self-assemble into a desired structure and not any of a potentially large number of undesired structures. Here we use simulation to show that a strategy of…

Many-body long-range interacting systems can remain approximately in a quasi-stationary state far-from-thermodynamic equilibrium. These states are typically characterized by a pair of counter-propagating density clusters, or by a single…
