Low-loss optical communication requires light sources at 1.5um wavelengths. Experiments showed without much theoretical guidance that InAs/GaAs quantum dots (QDs) may be tuned to such wavelengths by adjusting the In fraction in an…
We examine the stability of hadron resonance gas models by extending them to take care of undiscovered resonances through the Hagedorn formula. We find that the influence of unknown resonances on thermodynamics is large but bounded. Hadron…

As a shock wave propagates through a gas mixture, pressure, temperature, and density increase across the shock front. Rankine-Hugoniot (R-H) relations quantify these changes, correlating post-shock quantities with upstream conditions…

The diffuse interstellar medium is dynamic, and its chemistry and evolution is determined by shock fronts as well as photodissociation. Shocks are implied by the supersonic motions and velocity dispersion often statistically called…
We use the one-dimensional steady version of the equations derived in paper I to compute the structure of shock waves. The agreement with experiment is good, especially when we retain the experimental value of the Prandtl number adopted in…
