We calculate finite-temperature corrections to the decay rate of a generic neutral (pseudo)scalar particle that decays into (pseudo)scalars or fermion-antifermion pairs. The ratio of the finite-temperature decay rate to the zero-temperature…
From the AdS/CFT correspondence, the effects of charge and finite 't Hooft coupling correction on the thermal width of a heavy quarkonium are investigated. To study the charge effect, we consider Maxwell charge which is interpreted as quark…
We show that an increasingly strong thermal rectification effect occurs in the thermodynamic limit in a one-dimensional, graded rotor lattice with nearest-neighboring interactions only. The underlying mechanism is related to the transition…
We investigate thermal rectification in nanoporous silicon using a semi-classical Monte Carlo (MC) simulation method. We consider geometrically asymmetric nanoporous structures, and investigate the combined effects of porosity, inter-pore…
We compute the $\mathcal{O}(k^2)$ terms (power corrections) of the photon polarization tensor in a hot and dense medium of particles with a small but finite mass, i.e., $0< m\ll T, \mu$. We perform our calculations within the hard thermal…
Recently, it has been shown that in graded systems, thermal rectification (TR) effect may remain in the thermodynamical limit. Here, by taking the one-dimensional rotor lattice as an illustrating model, we investigate how the graded…
We study the corrected entropy due to thermal fluctuation and their effect on the thermodynamics of a conformally dressed black hole in three dimensions. We find that the thermal fluctuation affects the entropy significantly for small black…
We study the rectification of a two-dimensional thermal gas in a channel of asymmetric dissipative walls. For an ensemble of smooth Lennard-Jones particles, our numerical simulations reveal a non-monotonic dependence of the flux on the…
The Casimir effect, reflecting quantum vacuum fluctuations in the electromagnetic field in a region with material boundaries, has been studied both theoretically and experimentally since 1948. The forces between dielectric and metallic…
In this work we conduct an extensive study of the asymmetric heat flow, i.e. thermal rectification, present in the two-segment Frenkel Kontorova model with both nearest-neighbor (NN) and next-nearest-neighbor (NNN) interactions. We have…
We propose a general method to evaluate the material parameters for arbitrary shape transformation media. By solving the original coordinates in the transformed region via Laplace's equations, we can obtain the deformation field…
The thermal response function given to a unit-step dissipation accurately characterizes the thermal system. Instead of the thermal response function the so-called structure function describing three-dimensional as the equivalent model of…
We compute thermal corrections to R\'enyi entropies of $d$ dimensional conformal field theories on spheres. Consider the $n$th R\'enyi entropy for a cap of opening angle $2 \theta$ on $S^{d-1}$. From a Boltzmann sum decomposition and the…
We consider a system formed by two different segments of particles, coupled to thermal baths, one at each end, modeled by Langevin thermostats. The particles in each segment interact harmonically and are subject to an on-site potential, for…
Thermal corrections, including relativistic effects, for the positronium atom are discussed. The theoretical description of thermal corrections is carried out within the framework of relativistic quantum electrodynamics. As a result,…
Thermal diode is a growing technology and important for active thermal flow control. Since the theoretical designing of thermal diode in 2004, various kinds of solid-state thermal diodes have been theoretically and experimentally…
The present work deals with the derivation of corrector estimates for the two-scale homogenization of a thermo-diffusion model with weak thermal coupling posed in a heterogeneous medium endowed with periodically arranged high-contrast…
In this paper we compute the radiative correction to the mass of the kink in $\phi^4$ theory in 1+1 dimensions, using an alternative renormalization program. In this newly proposed renormalization program the breaking of the translational…
We consider the velocity shift of light in presence of radiation emitted by a black body. Within geometric optics formalism we calculate the bending angle of a light ray when there is a gradient in the energy density. We model the bending…
Using experimental data on thermal convection, obtained at a Rayleigh number of 1.5 $\times 10^{11}$, it is shown that the temperature structure functions $<\Delta T_{r}^p>$, where $\Delta T_r$ is the absolute value of the temperature…
