Materials exposed to ultrashort intense x-ray irradiation may experience various damaging conditions depending on the in-situ temperature. A pre-heated target exposed to intense x-rays plays a crucial role in numerous systems of…

Inertial Confinement Fusion is a promising option to provide massive, clean, and affordable energy for mankind in the future. The present status of research and development is hindered by hydrodynamical instabilities occurring at the…

In this paper we study the crack initiation in a hyper-elastic body governed by a Griffith's type energy. We prove that, during a load process through a time dependent boundary datum of the type $t \to t g(x)$ and in absence of strong…

At the nano-scale, surface phenomena such as attractive VdW forces strongly dominate; explosions may well be thought impossible. We confirm nano explosions that are important for a fractal (hierarchical, scale invariant) pore structure,…

We propose a way of obtaining effective low energy Hubbard-like model Hamiltonians from ab initio Quantum Monte Carlo calculations for molecular and extended systems. The Hamiltonian parameters are fit to best match the ab initio two-body…

Autoignition experiments for n-butanol have been performed using a heated rapid compression machine at compressed pressures of 15 and 30 bar, in the compressed temperature range of 675-925 K, and for equivalence ratios of 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0.…

Using density-functional theory we investigate several properties of Al(111), Al(100), Al(110), and stepped Al(111) surfaces. We report results of formation energies of surfaces, steps, adatoms, and vacancies. For the adsorption and…

Using molecular dynamics simulations we study the thermodynamic behavior of a single-component covalent material described by the recently proposed Environment-Dependent Interatomic Potential (EDIP). The parameterization of EDIP for silicon…

Inelastic dark matter (IDM) models feature an energy threshold for scattering with Standard Model particles, which enables their consistency with the increasingly stringent limits placed by direct detection experiments. In a typical…

The quest for the inertial confinement fusion (ICF) ignition is a grand challenge, as exemplified by extraordinary large laser facilities. Fast isochoric heating of a pre-compressed plasma core with a high-intensity short-pulse laser is an…

A novel type of internal transport barrier (ITB) called F-ATB (fast ion-induced anomalous transport barrier) has been recently observed in state-of-the-art global gyrokinetic simulations on a properly optimized ASDEX Upgrade experiment [A.…

A theory for thermodynamic induction (TI) under isothermal conditions is presented. This includes a treatment of the Helmholtz free energy budget available for a gate variable to utilize towards aiding another variable's approach towards…

The use of energy functionals based on density as the basic variable is advocated for ab initio molecular dynamics. It is demonstrated that the constraint of positivity of density can be incorporated easily by using square root density for…

The one-dimensional (1D) problem on bilatiral irradiation by proton beams of the plane layer of condensed DT mixture with length $2H$ and density $\rho_0 \leqslant 100\rho_s$, where $\rho_s$ is the fuel solid-state density at atmospheric…

We have explored in three dimensions the fate of a massive white dwarf as a function of different initial locations of carbon ignition, with the aid of a SPH code. The calculated models cover a variety of possibilities ranging from the…

A fluid dynamics video is presented that demonstrates an indirect detonation initiation process. In this process, a transient power deposition adds heat to a spatially resolved volume of fluid in an amount of time that is similar to the…

We study effect of cavity collapse in non-ideal explosives as a means of controlling their sensitivity. The main aim is to understand the origin of localised temperature peaks (hot spots) that play a leading order role at early ignition…

The modeling of high velocity impact into brittle or quasibrittle solids is hampered by the unavailability of a constitutive model capturing the effects of material comminution into very fine particles. The present objective is to develop…

Twisted bilayers of two-dimensional (2D) materials have emerged as a highly tunable platform to study and engineer properties of excitons. However, the atomistic description of these properties has remained a significant challenge as a…
