Hadronic $\tau$ decays provide a clean laboratory for the precise study of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Observables based on the spectral functions of hadronic $\tau$ decays can be related to QCD quark-level calculations to determine…

The hadron ratios measured in central Au-Au collisions are analysed by means of Hadron Resonance Gas (HRG) model over a wide range of nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energies ranging from 7.7 to 200 GeV as offered by the STAR Beam Energy…
High entropy alloys (HEAs) are promising magnetocaloric materials with tunable operating temperature conditions using compositional modifications. Here, we combine experiments and first principles based spin modelling to engineer…
Using the most recent release of the ALEPH $\tau$ decay data, we present a very detailed phenomenological update of the $\alpha_s(m_\tau^2)$ determination. We have exploited the sensitivity to the strong coupling in many different ways,…
We measured the magnetic susceptibilities of Cu$_6$Ge$_6$O$_{18}$-xH$_2$O ($x = 0 \sim 6$). Susceptibility above the antiferromagnetic (AF) transition temperature ($T_{\rm N}$) agrees with susceptibility of the one-dimensional Heisenberg $S…

Two microscopic models, UrQMD and QGSM, were employed to study the formation of locally equilibrated hot and dense nuclear matter in heavy-ion collisions at energies from 11.6 AGeV to 160 AGeV. Analysis was performed for the fixed central…
We have used density functional theory to study the structural stability of surface alloys. Our systems consist of a single pseudomorphic layer of $M_xN_{1-x}$ on the Ru(0001) surface, where $M$ = Fe or Co, and $N$ = Pt, Au, Ag, Cd, or Pb.…
Elliptic flow holds much promise for studying the early-time thermalization attained in ultrarelativistic nuclear collisions. Flow measurements also provide a means of distinguishing between hydrodynamic models and calculations which…
Even though, the crystal structure of the intermediate (S') and the equilibrium S (Al2CuMg) phase were subject of many investigations by using mostly imaging or diffraction techniques, the results remain still controversial. In this study,…
The study was aimed at determination of the position of the Fe-rich border of the metastable miscibility gap (MMG) and of the solubility limit of Cr in iron at 858 K. Towards this end a Fe73.7Cr26.3 alloy was isothermally annealed at 858 K…
We present measurements of the phase coherence time $\tau_\phi$ in six quasi-1D Au wires and clearly show that $\tau_\phi$ is temperature independent at low temperatures. We suggest that zero-point fluctuations of the intrinsic…
Method(s) that can reliably predict phase evolution across thermodynamic parameter space, especially in complex systems are of critical significance in academia as well as in the manufacturing industry. In the present work, phase stability…
