We calculate the absorption spectra of a conductive disk in the presence of a metal gate. In our analysis, we use the conductivity described by the Drude model. We examine the frequency and line width of the absorption resonances associated…
Simulating more than seconds of microstructure evolution in systems involving almost athermally or very fast diffusing species such as self-interstitial atom (SIA) clusters currently relies on mean-field or coarse-graining techniques.…

(Abridged) We attempt to characterize the radial distribution of dust in disks around a sample of young stars from an observational point of view, and, when possible, in a model-independent way, by using parametric laws. We used the IRAM…
This paper is the second in a two-part exposition on {\it surface-directed spinodal decomposition} (SDSD), i.e., the interplay of kinetics of wetting and phase separation at a surface which is wetted by one of the components of a binary…
Computer simulations are used to generate two-dimensional diffusion-limited deposits of dipoles. The structure of these deposits is analyzed by measuring some global quantities: the density of the deposit and the lateral correlation…
