Solid 4He has been created off the melting curve by growth at nearly constant mass via the "blocked capillary" technique and growth from the 4He superfluid at constant temperature. The experimental apparatus allows injection of 4He atoms…
By use of a novel experimental design, one that provides for superfluid helium in contact with bulk hcp 4He off the melting curve, we have observed the DC transport of mass through a cell filled with solid 4He in the hcp region of the phase…
We present computer simulations of liquid and solid phases of condensed methane at pressures below 25 GPa, between 150 and 300 K, where no appreciable molecular dissociation occurs. We used molecular dynamics (MD) and metadynamics…
We use the thermo-mechanical effect to create a chemical potential difference between two liquid reservoirs connected to each other through Vycor rods in series with solid hcp 4He to confirm that a DC flux of atoms takes place below 600 mK,…
We find that both continuous and discontinuous hexatic-liquid transitions can happen in the melting of two-dimensional solids of soft-core disks. For three typical model systems, Hertzian, harmonic, and Gaussian-core models, we observe the…
The compressibility of solid helium (3He and 4He) in the hcp and fcc phases has been studied by path-integral Monte Carlo. Simulations were carried out in both canonical (NVT) and isothermal-isobaric (NPT) ensembles at temperatures between…
We follow the structural transformation in solid C$_{70}$ from the high temperature hcp to a low temperature monoclinic phase using x-ray diffraction studies at controlled cooling-rates from 0.0033 to 0.42 K/min. Rapid cooling of the sample…
In this work we investigate the transient solidification of a Lennard-Jones liquid using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations and continuum heat transfer theory. The simulations are performed in slab-shaped boxes, where a cold…
A molecular dynamics study of a two dimensional system of particles interacting through a Lennard-Jones pairwise potential is performed at fixed temperature and vanishing external pressure. As the temperature is increased, a solid-to-liquid…
Numerical heat and mass transfer analysis of a configuration where a cool liquid hydrocarbon is suddenly introduced to a hotter gas at supercritical pressure shows that a well-defined phase equilibrium can be established before substantial…
We have carried out torsional oscillator experiments on solid $^4$He at temperatures between 1.3K and 1.9K. We discovered phenomena similar to those observed at temperatures below 0.2K, which currently are under debate regarding their…
Using an apparatus that allows superfluid liquid 4He to be in contact with hcp solid \4he at pressures greater than the bulk melting pressure of the solid, we have performed experiments that show evidence for 4He mass flux through the solid…
We report an idealized numerical study of a melting and freezing solid adjacent to a turbulent, buoyancy-affected shear flow, in order to improve our understanding of topography generation by phase changes in the environment. We use the…
The elastic constants of solid \textit{hcp} $^4$He are investigated in molar volumes ranging from about melting up to approximately 14 MPa. Properties of interest are determined by averages formed from computed values in configurations…
We investigate the effects of strain on a crystal surface close to the bulk melting temperature T_m, where surface melting usually sets in. Strain lowers the bulk melting point, so that at a fixed temperature below but close to T_m the…
In this paper, we investigate the possibility of transient growth in the linear perturbation of current sheets. The resistive magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) operator for a background field consisting of a current sheet is non-normal, meaning…
Conventional molecular dynamics simulation has been used to determine melting temperature of highly compressed classical molecular hydrogen in a wide range of pressures and temperatures using non-empirical atom-atom potentials…
Thermally stimulated process such as evaporation, phase transition, or solid-liquid transition of a solid consumes each a certain portion of the solid cohesive energy that is the sum of bond energy over all the coordinates of all the…
A concentration-saturated helium mixture at the melting pressure consists of two liquid phases and one or two solid phases. The equilibrium system is univariant, whose properties depend uniquely on temperature. Four coexisting phases can…
The present study reports experiments of water droplet impacting on ice or on a cold metallic substrate, with the aim of understanding the effect of phase change on the impingement process. Both liquid and substrate temperatures are varied,…
