Consider sequential packing of unit balls in a large cube, as in the Renyi car-parking model, but in any dimension and with Poisson input. We show after suitable rescaling that the spatial distribution of packed balls tends to that of a…
Simulation within the grand canonical ensemble is the method of choice for accurate studies of first order vapour-liquid phase transitions in model fluids. Such simulations typically employ sampling that is biased with respect to the…
Radiation by the atoms of a resonant medium is a cooperative process in which the medium participates as a whole. In two previous papers \cite{PG00,GP00}, we treated this problem for the case of a medium having slab geometry, which, under…
Agglomeration is an industrially relevant process for the production of bulk materials in which the product properties depend on the morphology of the agglomerates, e.g., on the distribution of size and shape descriptors. Thus, accurate…
We create a spatially homogeneous field inside of a ring cavity by combining two transverse modes generated by a single laser through modulation. The interference term between the two modes averages out because of the frequency difference…
We present an algorithm to simulate random sequential adsorption (random "parking") of discs on constant-curvature surfaces: the plane, sphere, hyperboloid, and projective plane, all embedded in three-dimensional space. We simulate complete…
The study on the relationship between the spheres and voids in packing system suggests that the edge effect at the interface between the container and the particles is an important factor lowering the packing ratio. To pack spheres in a…

We perform experiments with a granular system that consists of a collection of identical hollow spheres (ping-pong balls). Particles rest on a horizontal metallic grid and are confined within a circular region. Fluidization is achieved by…
We provide a self-contained introduction to random matrices. While some applications are mentioned, our main emphasis is on three different approaches to random matrix models: the Coulomb gas method and its interpretation in terms of…
This article introduces a novel approach to perform the simulation of a single qubit quantum algorithm using laser beams. Leveraging the polarization states of photonic qubits, and inspired by variational quantum eigensolvers, we develop a…
Jammed soft matter systems are often modelled as dense packings of overlapping soft spheres, thus ignoring particle deformation. For 2D (and 3D) soft disks packings, close to the critical packing fraction $\varphi_c$, this results in an…

We introduce a latent 3D representation that models 3D surfaces as probability density functions in 3D, i.e., p(x,y,z), with flow-matching. Our representation is specifically designed for consumption by machine learning models, offering…
Accurate quantification of local packing density and mixing in simulations of particulate systems is essential for many industrial applications. Traditional methods which simply count the number of particle centres within a given volume of…
