The thermal relaxation problem between two parallel plates with the same temperature is investigated, aiming to study the behavior of the free energy of the dense gas described by the Enskog equation. Two types of Enskog equation have been…
The uniform electron gas is a key model system in the description of matter, including dense plasmas and solid state systems. However, the simultaneous occurence of quantum, correlation, and thermal effects makes the theoretical description…
The long-time thermal relaxation of (TMTTF)$_2$Br, Sr$_{14}$Cu$_{24}$O$_{41}$ and Sr$_2$Ca$_{12}$Cu$_{24}$O$_{41}$ single crystals at temperatures below 1 K and magnetic field up to 10 T is investigated. The data allow us to determine the…
The moment of inertia Q of a trapped superfluid gas of atomic Fermions (6Li) is calculated as a function of the temperature. At zero temperature the moment of inertia takes on the irrotational flow value. Only for T very close to Tc rigid…
We introduce a generalised relaxation-time-approximation form of the collision term in the Boltzmann kinetic equation that allows for using different relaxation times for elastic and inelastic collisions. The efficacy of the proposed…
We develop a simple, mean-field-like theory for the normal phase of a unitary Fermi gas by deriving a self-consistent equation for its self-energy via a momentum-dependent coupling constant for both attractive and repulsive universal…
We develop a self-consistent quasilinear theory for the relaxation of electromagnetic kinetic plasmas, and demonstrate that the mean distribution functions of both electrons and ions tend to relax to a universal $v^{-5}$ tail. Large-scale…
We develop a theory of energy relaxation and thermalization of hot carriers in real quantum wires. Our theory is based on a controlled perturbative approach for large excitation energies and emphasizes the important roles of the electron…
Relaxation of conduction electron spins in a semiconductor owing to the hyperfine interaction with spin-1/2 nuclei, in zero applied magnetic field, is investigated. We calculate the electron spin relaxation time scales, in order to evaluate…
The electron spin dynamics in (111)-oriented GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells is studied by timeresolved photoluminescence spectroscopy. By applying an external field of 50 kV/cm a two-order of magnitude increase of the spin relaxation time can be…
In this work we study the correlation energy of the quantized electron gas of uniform density at temperature $T=0$. To do so we utilize methods from classical statistical mechanics. The basis for this is the Feynman path integral for the…
One of the goals in understanding any new class of superconductors is to search for commonalities with other known superconductors. The present work investigates the superconducting condensation energy, U, in the iron based superconductors…
We have measured the phase coherence time, $\tau_{\phi},$ in long, narrow wires of Au, Ag, and Cu, over the temperature range 40 mK-6 K. In the Cu and Au wires, $\tau_{\phi}$ saturates at low temperature. In the Ag wire, $\tau_{\phi}$…
We develop a general formalism to determine the statistical equilibrium states of self-gravitating systems in general relativity and complete previous works on the subject. Our results are valid for an arbitrary form of entropy but, for…
Thermodynamic properties of a fermionic system close to the unitarity limit, where the 2-body scattering length |a| approaches infinity is studied at high temperature Boltzmann regime. For dilute systems the virial expansion coefficients in…
I discuss the strong link between the transmission line (TL) equation and the TL circuit model for the charging of an electrolyte-filled pore of finite length. In particular, I show how Robin and Neumann boundary conditions to the TL…
We propose a phenomenological approach for the equation of state of a unitary Fermi gas. The universal equation of state is parametrised in terms of Fermi-Dirac integrals. This reproduces the experimental data over the accessible range of…
We propose a theory of metals at the spin-density wave quantum critical point in spatial dimension $d=2$. We provide a first estimate of the full set of critical exponents (dynamical exponent $z=2.13$, correlation length $\nu =1.02$, spin…
Ultrafast time-resolved photoinduced reflectivity is measured for the itinerant antiferromagnet UNiGa$_{5}$ ($T_{N} \approx$85 K) from room temperature to 10 K. The relaxation time $\tau$ shows a sharp increase at $T_{N}$ consistent with…
The longitudinal spin relaxation time, T1, in a Si/SiGe quantum well is determined from the saturation of the ESR signal. We find values of a few microseconds. Investigations of T1 as a function of Fermi energy, concentration of scattering…
