The most puzzling aspect of the 'strange metal' behavior of correlated electron compounds is that the linear in temperature resistivity often extends down to low temperatures, lower than natural microscopic energy scales. We consider…
We ask the question whether entropy accumulates, in the sense that the operationally relevant total uncertainty about an $n$-partite system $A = (A_1, \ldots A_n)$ corresponds to the sum of the entropies of its parts $A_i$. The Asymptotic…
We point out that even at the absolute zero of temperature environmental decoherence limits the destructive interference between time-reversed paths for an electron in a disordered metal, and thus causes the leading (`weak localization')…
The question whether ferroelectricity (FE) may coexist with a metallic or highly conducting state, or rather it must be suppressed by the screening from the free charges, is the focus of a rapidly increasing number of theoretical studies…
Temperature dependent transport of disordered electronic systems is examined in the presence of strong correlations. In contrast to what is assumed in Fermi liquid approaches, finite temperature behavior in this regime proves largely…
We study transport through a ferromagnetic single-electron transistor. The resistance is represented as a path integral, so that systems where the tunnel resistances are smaller than the quantum resistance can be investigated. Beyond the…
For gauge theories which admit a dual string description, we analyze deep inelastic scattering at strong 't Hooft coupling and high energy, in the vicinity of the unitarity limit. We discuss the onset of unitarity corrections and determine…
With a large-area field electron emitter, when an individual post-like emitter is sufficiently resistive, and current through it sufficiently large, then voltage loss occurs along it. This Letter provides a simple analytical and conceptual…
The effects of saturation and unitarization for hadron-hadron scattering at LHC energies are explored in several models. It is shown that different choices of saturation parameters lead to sizable differences in the energy dependence of…
Recent technological advancements have enabled strong light-matter interaction in highly dissipative cavity-emitter systems. However, in these systems, which are well described by the Tavis-Cummings model, the considerable loss rates render…
Resistivity and thermoelectric power (TEP) measurements on CeFe$_2$ and two of its pseudo-binaries Ce(Fe, 5% Ir)$_2$ and Ce(Fe, 7% Ru)$_2$ between 78K and 275K are reported. The resistivity data are analysed in terms of contributions from…
The dependence of the strangeness saturation factor on the system size, centrality and energy is studied in relativistic heavy-ion collisions.
We simulate the central reactions of nearly symmetric, and asymmetric systems, for the energies at which the maximum production of IMFs occurs (E$_{c.m.}^{peak}$).This study is carried out by using hard EOS along with cugnon cross section…
Applying linear response and the magnetic force theorem in correlated density functional theory, the inter-sublattice exchange constants of antiferromagnetic Eu are calculated and found to vanish near the pressure of P$_c$=82 GPa, just…
Ionic electro-active polymer (Nafion for example) can be used as sensor or actuator. To this end, a thin film of the water-saturated material is sandwiched between two electrodes. Water saturation causes a quasi-complete dissociation of the…
A semilinear parabolic equation with constraint modeling the dynamics of a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) is studied. In contrast to the commonly used MEMS model, the well-known pull-in phenomenon occurring above a critical potential…
It is shown that recent experiments indicating a metal-insulator transition in 2D electron systems can be interpreted in terms of a simple model, in which the resistivity is controlled by scattering at charged hole traps located in the…
The Child-Langmuir law is investigated numerically using a fully electromagnetic particle-in-cell code for a closed axially symmetric diode. It is found that the average current transmitted to the anode increases with the injected current…
Dynamical Jahn-Teller effect has escaped so far direct observation in metallic systems. It is particularly believed to be quenched also in correlated conductors with orbitally degenerate sites such as cubic fullerides. Here the Gutzwiller…
In the standard MOSFET description of the drain current $I_{D}$ as a function of applied gate voltage $V_{GS}$, the subthreshold swing $SS(T)\equiv dV_{GS}/d\log I_{D}$ has a fundamental lower limit as a function of temperature $T$ given by…
