As is well-known, for plasmas of high density and modest temperature, the classical kinetic theory needs to be extended. Such extensions can be based on the Schr\"odinger Hamiltonian, applying a Wigner transform of the density matrix, in…
Classical nonlinear theories are highly successful in describing far-from-equilibrium dynamics of magnets, encompassing phenomena such as parametric resonance, ultrafast switching, and even chaos. However, at ultrashort length and time…
Parity-odd transport is a central signature of chiral fluids, yet analytical predictions are sparse. Here, we introduce a minimal two-dimensional hard-disk gas in which chirality arises solely from a collision-induced transverse impulse.…
