When a liquid film of colloidal solution consisting of particles of different sizes is dried on a substrate, the colloids often stratify, where smaller colloids are laid upon larger colloids. This phenomenon is counter intuitive because…
A field-induced crossover is observed in the resistivity and magnetization (M) of a La(0.7)Pb(0.3)MnO(3) single crystal. The field-dependence of the resistivity and M suggests that a small spin-canted species with mean-field-like…
The crossover among two or more types of diffusive processes represents a vibrant theme in nonequilibrium statistical physics. In this work we propose two models to generate crossovers among different L\'evy processes: in the first model we…

Structural defects in a crystal are responsible for the "two length-scale" behavior, in which a sharp central peak is superimposed over a broad peak in critical diffuse X-ray scattering. We have previously measured the scaling behavior of…

Spectrum of boson fields and two-point correlators are analyzed in quantum crossbars (QCB, a superlattice formed by two crossed interacting arrays of quantum wires), with short range inter-wire interaction. It is shown that the standard…
The adhesion of flowing particles and biological cells over fixed collecting surfaces is vitally important in diverse situations and potentially controlled by small-scale surface heterogeneity on the particle. Differences in the behavior of…
For particles confined to two dimensions, any curvature of the surface affects the structural, kinetic and thermodynamic properties of the system. If the curvature is non-uniform, an even richer range of behaviours can emerge. Using a…
