By performing a global magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) simulation for the Milky Way with an axisymmetric gravitational potential, we propose that spatially dependent amplification of magnetic fields possibly explains the observed noncircular…
Relativistic jets can interact with the ambient gas distribution of the host galaxy, before breaking out to larger scales. In the past decade several studies have simulated jet-driven outflows to understand how they affect the nearby…
An overview of new experimental results on high-\pT{} particle production and jets in heavy ion collisions from the Quark Matter 2006 conference is presented.
Wetting and drying of a rigid substrate by a Lennard-Jones fluid in molecular dynamics simulations is reported. The size of the substrate particles, being smaller than the fluid particles in former simulations, is now taken to be equal to,…
We used optical microscopy to investigate flows inside water rivulets that were inkjet-printed onto different surfaces and under different ambient conditions. The acquired fluid dynamics videos were submitted to the 2013 Gallery of Fluid…
We report the numerical evidence of a new state of active turbulence in confined domains. By means of extensive numerical simulations of the Toner-Tu-Swift-Hohenberg model for dense bacterial suspensions in circular geometry, we discover…
We demonstrate the existence of a new type of spatially localized excitations in the unitary Fermi gas: spin polarized droplets with a peculiar internal structure involving the abrupt change of the pairing phase at the surface of the…
Relativistic jets associated with active galactic nuclei and gamma-ray bursts propagate over huge distances without significant loss of momentum. At the same time they are bright emitters, which is indicative of strong energy dissipation.…
We calculate the production of large mass dileptons from the passage of jets passing through the quark-gluon plasma. Using the relativistic kinetic theory, we rigorously derive the production rate for the jet-dilepton conversion in the hot…
We perform the analog to the "water bell" experiment using non-cohesive granular material. When a jet of granular material, many particles wide, rebounds from a fixed cylindrical target, it deforms into a sharply-defined sheet or cone with…
The enormous sizes and variability of emission of radio-loud AGNs arise from the relativistic flows of plasma along two oppositely directed jets. We use the Athena hydrodynamics code to simulate an extensive suite of 54 propagating…
Gravitational microlensing provides a new technique for studying the surfaces of distant stars. Microlensing events are detected in real time and can be followed up with precision photometry and spectroscopy. This method is particularly…
Giant gravitons are described microscopically in terms of dielectric gravitational waves expanding into fuzzy manifolds. We review these constructions in AdS_m \times S^n spacetimes, discussing the different fuzzy manifolds that appear in…
Giant planets that reside in close proximity to their host stars are subject to extreme irradiation, which gives rise to thermal ionization of trace Alkali metals in their atmospheres. On objects where the atmospheric electrical…
Collective transport through channels shows surprising properties under one-dimensional confinement: particles in a single file exhibit sub-diffusive behavior, while liquid confinement causes distance-independent correlations between the…
Unusually large spontaneous and piezoelectric fields in the III-V nitrides have led to the making of an entirely new class of two-dimensional electron gas. Fluctuation from a perfectly periodic binary structure in highly polar semiconductor…
We investigated the formation of granular focused jets defined as narrow upward ejections of grains triggered by impulsive forces and shaped by kinematic focusing on a concave free surface. The jets were generated from nonfluidized granular…
We comment on the latest paper [K.-H. Ding, Z.-G. Zhu, and J. Berakdar, J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 24, 266003 (2012)].
We propose a new observable, called zeal, to analyze events with jets in heavy ion collisions. The observable measures how a thermal medium affects the multiplicity and distribution of energetic particles in a jet. Using few known models…
Starting with a reminder of what is strongly coupled Quark-Gluon Plasma (sQGP), we proceed to recent advances in jet quenching and heavy quark diffusion, with a brief summary of various results based on AdS/CFT correspondence. The conical…
