The Liouville theorem is a fundamental concept in understanding the properties of systems that adhere to Hamilton's equations. However, the traditional notion of the theorem may not always apply. Specifically, when the entropy gradient in…
A phase space boundary between transition and non-transition, similar to those observed in chemical reaction dynamics, is shown experimentally in a macroscopic system. We present a validation of the phase space flux across rank one saddles…
Previous study of properties of the first-order phase transition in a set of plasma mod-els with common feature - absence of individual correlations between charges of opposite sign, was continued. Predicted discontinuities in equilibrium…
We perform density functional molecular dynamics simulations of liquid and solid MgSiO3 in the pressure range of 120-1600 GPa and for temperatures up to 20000 K in order to provide new insight into the nature of the liquid-liquid phase…
Since a rigorous microscopic treatment of a nematic fluid system based on a pairwise interaction potential is immensely complex we had introduced a simple mean field potential which was a modification of the Maier-Saupe potential in a…
In fluid-fluid phase transitions problems featuring small scale heterogeneity, we see that when the scale heterogeneity is sufficiently small, the periodic potential function $W(x,p)$ can be replaced with a homogenized potential function…
The structural phase behaviors of pure zirconium metal under compressions up to $160$ GPa at room temperature are investigated from the perspective of ensemble theory where the partition function is solved by our recently proposed method…
We calculate the $\theta$ dependence in a cousin of QCD, where the vacuum structure can be analyzed exactly. The theory is $\mathcal{N}=2$ $SU(2)$ gauge theory with $N_F=0,1,2,3$ flavors of fundamentals, explicitly broken to $\mathcal{N}=1$…
We study $k$-bonacci substitutions. For each we define a renormalization operator associated to it and examine its iterates over potentials in a certain class. We also study the pressure function associated to potentials in this class and…
Based on a sample of $(1.0087\pm0.0044)\times10^{10}$ $J/\psi$ events collected at BESIII, the transition form factor of the $\eta$ meson is extracted by analyzing $J/\psi\to\gamma\eta',~\eta'\to\pi^+\pi^-\eta,~\eta\to\gamma l^+l^-$…
Botimer and Taborek (2016) measured the mass flux of superfluid $^4$He through a capillary into an evacuated chamber for various temperatures and pressures of the reservoir chamber. They found a sharp transition from low flux at low…
It is known that all uniformly expanding dynamics have no phase transition with respect to H\"older continuous potentials. In this paper we show that given a local diffeomorphism $f$ on the circle, that is neither a uniformly expanding…
Any interface boundary in an equilibrium system of Coulomb particles is accompanied by the existence of a finite difference in the average electrostatic potential through this boundary. This interface potential drop is a thermodynamic…
Nonequilibrium phenomena of the phase transitions are studied. It is shown that due to finite relaxation time of the particle distributions, the use of scalar background dependent distribution functions is inconsistent.This observation may…
We study pressurised self-avoiding ring polymers in two dimensions using Monte Carlo simulations, scaling arguments and Flory-type theories, through models which generalise the model of Leibler, Singh and Fisher [Phys. Rev. Lett. Vol. 59,…
Effective pair interactions with a soft-repulsive component are a well-known feature of polymer solutions and colloidal suspensions, but they also provide a key to interpret the high-pressure behaviour of simple elements. We have computed…
Using exact Lanczos diagonalizations we have shown that the pair-hopping model for {\it negative} $W$ exhibits a phase transition into $\eta$-{\it superconducting state}. The transition occurs at {\it any band filling} and the critical…
In recent years there has been intense experimental activity to observe solid metallic hydrogen. Wigner and Huntington predicted that under extreme pressures insulating molecular hydrogen would dissociate and transition to atomic metallic…
Threshold effects in the estimation of parameters of non-linearly modulated, continuous-time, wide-band waveforms, are examined from a statistical physics perspective. These threshold effects are shown to be analogous to phase transitions…
Despite extensive experimental and theoretical work over several decades, Schmid-Bulgadaev quantum phase transition remains a subject of debate. Here we revisit this problem by performing systematic experiments on low-frequency…
