A shell-model version of Kraichnan's (1994 {\it Phys. Rev. Lett. \bf 72}, 1016) passive scalar problem is introduced which is inspired from the model of Jensen, Paladin and Vulpiani (1992 {\it Phys. Rev. A\bf 45}, 7214). As in the original…

Using high-speed confocal microscopy, we measure the particle positions in a colloidal suspension under large amplitude oscillatory shear. Using the particle positions we quantify the in situ anisotropy of the pair-correlation function -- a…

In this paper, we investigated the statistical differences between active and passive scalars in isotropic compressible turbulence. In the inertial range, the kinetic energy and scalar have the Kolmogorov spectra, and the Kolmogorov and…

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…

The problem of the interplay between normal and anomalous scaling in turbulent systems stirred by a random forcing with a power law spectrum is addressed. We consider both linear and nonlinear systems. As for the linear case, we study…

We construct the theory of a chiral boson with anisotropic scaling, characterized by a dynamical exponent $z$, whose action reduces to that of Floreanini and Jackiw in the isotropic case ($z=1$). The standard free boson with Lifshitz…

We describe the realization of multimode phononic correlations that arise from nonlinear interactions in a mechanical nondegenerate parametric amplifier. The nature of these correlations differs qualitatively depending on the strength of…

In the setting of vector-valued quantum fields obeying a linear wave-equation in a globally hyperbolic, stationary spacetime, it is shown that the two-point functions of passive quantum states (mixtures of ground- or KMS-states) fulfill the…

We examine the behavior of correlation functions for a massless scalar field in de Sitter space with a quartic interaction. We find that two-loop corrections are relevant, and that the resummation of these corrections generates a…

In this paper, we study a general class of inhomogeneous kinetic models that unifies fundamental models in both the statistical physics of particles and of waves, namely the kinetic Boltzmann equations and the kinetic wave equations, in…

We explore the nonlinear coupling of the three scissors modes of an anisotropic Bose-Einstein condensate. We show that only when the frequency of one of the scissors modes is twice the frequency of another scissors mode, these two modes can…

Local scale-invariance for ageing systems without detailed balance is tested through studying the dynamical symmetries of the critical bosonic contact process and the critical bosonic pair-contact process.Their field-theoretical actions can…

New aspects of spectral fluctuations of (quantum) chaotic and diffusive systems are considered, namely autocorrelations of the spacing between consecutive levels or spacing autocovariances. They can be viewed as a discretized two point…

We study the renormalization of a particular sector of Horndeski theory. In particular, we focus on the nonminimal coupling of a scalar field to the Gauss-Bonnet term and its kinetic coupling to the Einstein tensor. Adopting a power…

The structural properties of additive binary hard-sphere mixtures are addressed as a follow-up of a previous paper [S. Pieprzyk et al., Phys. Rev. E 101, 012117 (2020)]. The so-called rational-function approximation method and an approach…

We analyse a nonadiabatic self-consistent field method by means of an exactly-solvable model. The method is based on nuclear and electronic orbitals that are functions of the cartesian coordinates in the laboratory-fixed frame. The kinetic…
