Elastic interactions arising from a difference of lattice spacing between two coherent phases can have a strong influence on the phase separation (coarsening) of alloys. If the elastic moduli are different in the two phases, the elastic…

Long lived quasi-stationary states (QSSs) are a signature characteristic of long-range interacting systems both in the classical and in the quantum realms. Often, they emerge after a sudden quench of the Hamiltonian internal parameters and…

Systems with long-range interactions display a short-time relaxation towards Quasi Stationary States (QSSs) whose lifetime increases with system size. The application of Lynden-Bell's theory of "violent relaxation" to the Hamiltonian Mean…

A class of models of driven diffusive systems which is shown to exhibit phase separation in $d=1$ dimensions is introduced. Unlike all previously studied models exhibiting similar phenomena, here the phase separated state is fluctuating in…
Many biological processes are supported by special molecules, called motor proteins or molecular motors, that transport cellular cargoes along linear protein filaments and can reversibly associate to their tracks. Stimulated by these…
We analyzed pattern formation and identified different phases in a system of particles interacting through a non-monotonic short-range repulsive (r<r_c) and long-range attractive (r>r_c) potential, using molecular-dynamics simulations.…
Multicomponent phase separation is a routine occurrence in both living and synthetic systems. Thermodynamics provides a straightforward path to determine the phase boundaries that characterize these transitions for systems at equilibrium.…
Systems with long-range interactions, while relaxing towards equilibrium, sometimes get trapped in long-lived non-Boltzmann quasistationary states (QSS) which have lifetimes that grow algebraically with the system size. Such states have…
