An extensive analysis has been carried out of the performance of standard families of basis sets with the hierarchy of coupled cluster methods CC2, CCSD, CC3 and CCSDT in computing selected Oxygen, Carbon and Nitrogen K-edge (vertical) core…
We investigate the dielectrophoretic motion of charge-neutral, polarizable nanocolloids through molecular dynamics simulations. Comparison to analytical results derived for continuum systems shows that the discrete charge distributions on…
We propose a new method to cool gaseous samples of neutral atoms. The gas is confined in a non dissipative optical trap in the presence of an homogeneous magnetic field. The method accumulates atoms in the $m_F=0$ Zeeman sub-level. Cooling…
A convergence criterion of cluster expansion is presented in the case of an abstract polymer system with general pair interactions (i.e. not necessarily hard core or repulsive). As a concrete example, the low temperature disordered phase of…
Computing equilibrium concentrations of molecular complexes is generally analytically intractable and requires numerical approaches. In this work we focus on the polymer-monomer level, where indivisible molecules (monomers) combine to form…
The emission of radiation by a uniformly accelerated charge is analyzed. According to the standard approach, a radiation is observed whenever there is a relative acceleraion between the charge and the observer. Analyzing difficulties that…
Clusters of galaxies generally form by the gravitational merger of smaller clusters and groups. Major cluster mergers are the most energetic events in the Universe since the Big Bang. Mergers drive shocks into the intracluster gas, and…
In recent years, the tribocharging of colliding and bouncing submillimeter (submm) particles has been studied as a possible mechanism promoting the formation of large pebbles on centimeter (cm) to decimeter (dm) scales in protoplanetary…
Among ensemble clustering methods, Evidence Accumulation Clustering is one of the simplest technics. In this approach, a co-association (CA) matrix representing the co-clustering frequency is built and then clustered to extract consensus…
Accretion studies have been focused on the flow around bodies with point mass gravitational potentials, but few general results are available for non-point mass distributions. Here, we study the accretion flow onto non-divergent, core…
An approach for explicit consideration of cluster effects in nuclear systems and accurate ab initio calculations of cluster characteristics of nuclei is devised. The essential block of the approach is a construction of a basis which…
In this paper we consider the clustering coefficient and clustering function in a random graph model proposed by Krioukov et al.~in 2010. In this model, nodes are chosen randomly inside a disk in the hyperbolic plane and two nodes are…
In a system of atoms with large positive scattering length, weakly-bound diatomic molecules (dimers) are generated dynamically by the strong interactions between the atoms. If the atoms are modeled by a quantum field theory with an atom…
Nonlinear elements in a rectifying circuit can be used to harvest energy from thermal fluctuations either steadily or transitorily. We study an energy harvesting system comprising a small variable capacitor (e.g., free standing graphene)…
Salt-induced aggregation of 20 nm colloidal silica is followed by light transmission, which shows an a kinetic form exp[-(t/t_0)^{\alpha}], where \alpha = 2.6 and t_0 is an empirical time constant which reflects the colloidal stability. We…
We apply ideas from renormalization theory to models of cluster formation in nucleation and growth processes. We study a simple case of the Becker-Doring system of equations and show how a novel coarse-graining procedure applied to the…
Cluster production plays an important role in heavy-ion collisions at intermediate beam energies, where light nuclei contribute substantially to final-state yields and to other observables that are used to infer the nuclear equation of…

To study the interplay of jamming, cluster formation, and motility-induced phase separation in the zero temperature limit in two dimensions, we consider a simple model system consisting of a bidisperse mixture of disks that are only subject…
Motivated by the idea of using simple macroscopic examples to illustrate the physics of complex systems, we modify a historic experimental setup in which interacting floating magnets spontaneously self-assemble into ordered clusters. By…
