Orbits in a three-dimensional potential subjected to periodic driving, V(x^i,t)=[1+m_0 sin(omega t) V_0(x^i), divide naturally into two types, regular and chaotic, between which transitions are seemingly impossible. The chaotic orbits…

Optomechanical systems are known to exhibit a rich set of complex dynamical features including various types of chaotic behavior and multi-stability. Although this exotic behavior has attracted an intense research interest, the utilization…
This work explores the role of oxygen in industrial methane oxidation. Oxygen, a well-known oxidizing agent, drives CH$_4$ conversion to CO$_2$ and H$_2$O. We report how oxygen influences oxidation on single Pd and PdO clusters supported on…

In the fcc lattice of Pd, hydrogen occupies octahedral interstitial positions with cubic symmetry. One could therefore expect that in dilute solid H solutions in Pd the fundamental band of optical H vibrations should be reduced to a narrow…
NaCl crystal nucleation from metastable solutions has long been considered to occur according to a single-step mechanism. Recent experimental observations suggest that NaCl crystals emerge from disordered intermediates which is seemingly at…
