We study the temperature relaxation dynamics of nodal-line semimetals after a sudden excitation in the presence of acoustic and optical phonon modes. We find that the nodal line constrains the electron momenta in scattering processes and,…

Tracking the excitation of water molecules in the homogeneous liquid is challenging due to the ultrafast dissipation of rotational excitation energy through the hydrogen-bonded network. Here we demonstrate strong transient anisotropy of…

A solid - amorphous or crystalline - is defined by a finite shear modulus while a fluid lacks such. We thus experimentally investigate the elastic properties of a colloidal glass former near the glass transition: spectroscopy of vibrational…

Naturally occurring van der Waals (vdW) materials are currently attracting significant interest due to their potential as low-cost sources of two-dimensional materials. Valuable information on vdW materials' interlayer interactions is…

Acoustic fields effect steady transport of suspended particles by rectifying the inertia of primary oscillations. We develop a fully analytic theory that relates this steady particle motion to incident oscillatory (acoustic) flow and the…

Phonon hydrodynamics describes the motions of heat carriers (phonons) at sub-continuum scales: diffusive, ballistic, viscous, and vortical. In a previous paper, these behaviours were investigated within the framework of non-equilibrium…

One of the hallmarks of molecular dynamics in deeply supercooled liquids is the non-exponential character of the relaxation functions. It has been a long standing issue if 'universal' features govern the lineshape of glassy dynamics…
