The repulsive term of Van der Waals equation of state has been deduced and improved in this work using a probabilistic description of the configurational entropy. The aim is to find out whether its physical basis is suitable for the study…
Consistent formulations of relativistic viscous hydrodynamics involve short lived modes, leading to asymptotic rather than convergent gradient expansions. In this Letter we consider the Mueller-Israel-Stewart theory applied to a…

System-environment interaction may introduce dynamic destruction of quantum coherence, resulting in a special representation named as pointer states. Here, pointer states of an open electronic system are studied. The decoherence effect is…
Consider a particle diffusing in a confined volume which is divided into two equal regions. In one region the diffusion coefficient is twice the value of the diffusion coefficient in the other region. Will the particle spend equal…

Recent experiments on convection in binary mixtures have shown that the interaction between localized waves (pulses) can be repulsive as well as {\it attractive} and depends strongly on the relative {\it orientation} of the pulses. It is…
We study colloidal gels formed by competing electrostatic repulsion and short-range attraction by means of extensive numerical simulations under external shear. We show that, upon varying the repulsion strength, the gel structure and its…
n a recent paper we proposed the expansion of the space of variations in energy calculations by considering the approximate wave function $\psi$ to be a functional of functions $\chi: \psi = \psi[\chi]$ rather than a function. For the…
The coupling parameter series expansion and the high temperature series expansion in the ther- modynamic perturbation theory of fluids are shown to be equivalent if the interaction potential is pairwise additive. As a consequence, for the…
We use the system-plus-reservoir approach to study the quantum dynamics of a bipartite continuous variable system (two generic particles). We present an extension of the traditional model of a bath of oscillators which is capable of…
Colloidal models with short-range attraction and long range repulsion (SALR) have been extensively studied using theoretical and simulations methods due to their rich and universal equilibrium phase behavior. Using Brownian Dynamics…
We study the phase behaviour of a fluid composed of particles which interact via a pair potential that is repulsive for large inter-particle distances, is attractive at intermediate distances and is strongly repulsive at short distances…
A microscopic formalism is developed that includes the coupling to two particle-hole phonons in the particle-hole propagator by extending the dressed random phase approximation (DRPA) equation for a finite system. The resulting formalism is…
Based on a reconsideration of the Gibbs paradox, we show that a residual, non-extensive term in entropy turns up upon mixing identical particles, whether they are indistinguishable or not. The positive contribution from this residual…
We present molecular simulation data for viscosity, self-diffusivity, and the local structural ordering of (i) a hard-sphere fluid and (ii) a square-well fluid with short-range attractions. The latter fluid exhibits a region of dynamic…
When a strong electric field is applied to a colloidal suspension, it may cause an aggregation of the suspended particles in response to the field. In the case of a rotating field, the electrorotation (ER) spectrum can be modified further…

We study the elasto-plastic behavior of dense attractive emulsions under mechanical perturbation. The attraction is introduced through non-specific depletion interactions between the droplets and is controlled by changing the concentration…
We introduce a new concept called as the mutual uncertainty between two observables in a given quantum state which enjoys similar features like the mutual information for two random variables. Further, we define the conditional uncertainty…
