In the spin-boson model, the properties of the oscillator bath are fully characterized by the spectral density of oscillators $J(\omega)$. We study the case when this function is of Breit-Wigner shape and has a sharp peak at a frequency…
We revisit the dynamic spin susceptibility, $\chi(q,\omega)$, of one-dimensional interacting fermions. To second order in the interaction, backscattering results in a logarithmic correction to $\chi(q,\omega)$ at $q\ll k_F$, even if the…
The scaling of the longitudinal velocity structure functions, $S_q(r) = < | \delta u (r) |^q > \sim r^{\zeta_q}$, is analyzed up to order $q=8$ in a decaying rotating turbulence experiment from a large Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV)…

Prior modal stability analysis (Kojima et al., Phys. Fluids, vol. 27, 1984) predicted that a rising or sedimenting droplet in a viscous fluid is stable in the presence of surface tension no matter how small, in contrast to experimental and…

We study the liquid-solid transition in a collection of interacting particles moving through a dissipative medium under the action of a constant, spatially uniform external force, e.g. a charge-stabilized suspension in a fluidized bed or a…
We experimentally study the occurrence of pattern formation during the slot-die coating of low-viscosity nearly Newtonian liquids onto Polyethylenterephthalat (PET)-substrates. In particular, it is demonstrated that with increase of the…

We present a phenomenological theory for phase turbulence (PT) in Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection, based on the generalized Swift-Hohenberg model. We apply a Hartree-Fock approximation to PT and conjecture a scaling form for the structure…
Hyperuniformity emerges generically in the coarsening regime of phase-separating fluids. Numerical studies of active and passive systems have shown that the structure factor $S(q)$ behaves as $q^\varsigma$ for $q\to 0$, with hyperuniformity…

We establish exact inequalities for the structure-function scaling exponents of a passively advected scalar in both the inertial-convective and viscous-convective ranges. These inequalities involve the scaling exponents of the velocity…
