Effect of a thermal history of Fe(100-x)Cr(x) (x < 20) samples on a Cr atoms distribution within the first (1NN) and the second (2NN) neighbor-shells was studied with the M\"ossbauer spectroscopy. The distribution was expressed in terms of…
Ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) is a noninvasive way to measure stiffness of soft tissue for medical diagnosis. In SWE imaging, an acoustic radiation force induces tissue displacement, which creates shear waves (SWs) that travel…
LSST is expected to yield ~10^7 light curves over the course of its mission, which will require a concerted effort in automated classification. Stochastic processes provide one means of quantitatively describing variability with the…

Polymer-based plastics exhibit time-dependent deformation under constant stress, known as creep, which can lead to rupture or static fatigue. A common misconception is that materials under tolerable static loads remain unaffected over time.…
Maxwell counting predicts an isostatic threshold at $\langle r\rangle = 2.4$ for covalent network glasses, but which structural correlations actually produce rigidity near this point is still unclear. In this work, we test four candidates:…

Quantum Monte Carlo simulations of interacting electrons in solids often use Slater-Jastrow trial wave functions with Jastrow factors containing one- and two-body terms. In uniform systems the long-range behavior of the two-body term may be…
The presence, nature, and impact of chemical short-range order in the multi-principal element alloy CrCoNi are all topics of current interest and debate. First-principles calculations reveal that its origins are fundamentally magnetic,…
Local, or short-range, order in disordered alloys is an important and exciting phenomenon which is quantified in electron, X-ray and neutron scattering experiments. It is discussed in many excellent reviews and books, as well as in the…
