Recent very large molecular dynamics simulations of homogeneous nucleation with $(1-8) \cdot 10^9$ Lennard-Jones atoms [Diemand et al. J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 139}, 074309 (2013)] allow us to accurately determine the formation free energy of…
We study the density-density correlation function in a large-N scheme of the t-t'-J-V model. When the nearest-neighbor Coulomb interaction V is zero, our model exhibits phase separation in a wide doping region and we obtain large spectral…

We study first-order electroweak phase transitions in the real-singlet extended Standard Model, for which non-zero mixing between the Higgs and the singlet can efficiently strengthen the transitions. We perform large-scale parameter space…
We provide non-perturbative evidence for the fact that there is no hot electroweak phase transition at large Higgs masses, $m_H = 95$, 120 and 180 GeV. This means that the line of first order phase transitions separating the symmetric and…
Phase separation dynamics with an initially non-uniform concentration are studied. Critical and off-critical behavior is observed simultaneously. A mechanism for an expanding phase separated region is demonstrated and the time dependence of…
It is argued that the dominant feature of the phase diagram of the high $T_c$ cuprates is the crossover to the pseudogap phase in the energy (temperature) region $E (T^*)$. We argue that this scale is determined by the effective…
The nature of the pseudogap phase of cuprate high-temperature superconductors is a major unsolved problem in condensed matter physics. We studied the commencement of the pseudogap state at temperature T* using three different techniques…
For a superconductor to be able to receive an external magnetic field, there must be a vacant energy state in the superconductor to receive the energy associated with the field. For a small range of energies near that of the critical…
