We analyze the steady-state formalism for optimizing the cooling power of a thermoelectric refrigerator (TER), unifying the endoreversible and exoreversible approximations within one framework. Although the cooling power is non-optimizable…
We introduce a model to design reflectors that take into account the inverse square law for radiation. We prove existence of solutions, both in the near and far field cases, when the input and output energies are prescribed.
Recently the reversible heat production during the electric double layer (EDL) buildup in a sodium chloride solution was measured experimentally [Janssen et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 119, 166002 (2017)] and matched with theoretical predictions…
A recent proposal argues that an alternate description of the half-filled Landau level is a theory of massless Dirac fermions. We examine the possibility of pairing of these Dirac fermions by numerically solving the {\em coupled} Eliashberg…
The specific heat capacity of a two-dimensional electron gas is derived for two types of the density of states, namely, the Dirac delta function spectrum and that based on a Gaussian function. For the first time, a closed form expression of…
The temperature dependence of electric dipolar susceptibility \chi_P is discussed on the basis of the Anderson-Holstein model with the use of a numerical renormalization group (NRG) technique. Note that P is related with phonon Green's…
The heat equation with inverse square potential on both half-lines of $\mathbb{R}$ is discussed in the presence of \emph{bridging} boundary conditions at the origin. The problem is the lowest energy (zero-momentum) mode of the transmission…
We quantify the prior information to infer the optimal characteristics for a constrained thermodynamic process of maximum work extraction for a pair of non-identical finite systems. The total entropy of the whole system remains conserved.…
Charge reversal of the planar electrical double layer is studied by means of a well known integral equations theory. By a numerical analysis, a diagram is constructed with the onset points of charge reversal in the space of the fundamental…
Distinguishing conformally coupled frames from the tree-level perturbative observables (scalar spectral index $n_{\rm s}$ and tensor-to-scalar ratio $r$) is challenging in cosmology as they are nearly identical. However, since the…
The two-dimensional (2D) Heisenberg magnet with a weak easy-plane anisotropy is considered. A renormalization group (RG) analysis in this model is performed for both quantum and classical cases. A crossover from the Heisenberg to 2D XY…
The coherent reflectivity of a dense, relativistic, ultra-thin electron layer is derived analytically for an obliquely incident probe beam. Results are obtained by two-fold Lorentz transformation. For the analytical treatment, a plane…
Low energy properties of the metallic state of the 2-dimensional tJ model are presented at various densities and temperatures for second neighbor hopping t', with signs that are negative or positive corresponding to hole or electron doping.…
The efficiency at maximum power (EMP) of irreversible Carnot-like heat engines is investigated based on the weak endoreversible assumption and the phenomenologically irreversible thermodynamics. It is found that the weak endoreversible…
The effect of the thickness of ion exchange membranes has been investigated for electrodialysis (ED) and reverse electrodialysis (RED), both experimentally and through theoretical modeling. By developing a two-dimensional model based on…
The Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) system is a standard model for describing ion transport. In many applications, e.g., ions in biological tissues, the presence of thin boundary layers poses both modelling and computational challenges. In this…
We study the two-dimensional $t$--$J$ model at finite temperature directly in the thermodynamic limit using purification represented by an infinite projected entangled-pair state (iPEPS). We reach temperatures down to $T/t=0.1$ and hole…
As a representative device exploiting both the solar energy and the radiative cooling of deep-sky, the radiative temperature regulator (RTR) could switch between heating and cooling modes self-adaptively at different temperatures. However,…
First-order energy dissipative schemes in time are available in literature for the Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) equations, but second-order ones are still in lack. This work proposes novel second-order discretization in time and finite…
Common intuition tells us that if one part of a connected system is cooled continuously, the other parts should also cool down. This intuition can be given a microscopic foundation for the case of a generic quantum system coupled to a…
