Electron hydrodynamics arises when momentum-relaxing scattering processes are slow compared to momentum-conserving ones. While the microscopic details necessary to satisfy this condition are material-specific, experimentally accessible…
Active matter embraces systems that self-organize at different length and time scales, often exhibiting turbulent flows. Here, we use a quasi-two-dimensional nematically ordered layer of a protein-based active gel to experimentally…

Simulation of fracturing processes in porous rocks can be divided into two main branches: (i) modeling the rock as a continuum which is enhanced with special features to account for fractures, or (ii) modeling the rock by a discrete (or…
We investigate the dynamical behavior of entanglement in a system made by two solid-state emitters, as two quantum dots, embedded in two separated micro-cavities. In these solid-state systems, in addition to the coupling with the cavity…
Three-dimensional wake of an oscillating foil with combined heaving and pitching motion is numerically evaluated at a range of chord-based Strouhal number (0.32 \le Stc \le 0.56) and phase offset (90 deg \le \phi \le 70 deg) at Re = 8000.…

Three-dimensional (3D) instabilities on a (potentially turbulent) two-dimensional (2D) flow are still incompletely understood, despite recent progress. Here, based on known physical properties of such 3-D instabilities, we propose a simple,…
