We investigate a system of dense polyelectrolytes in solution. The Langevin dynamics of the system with linearized hydrodynamics is formulated in the functional integral formalism and a transformation made to collective coordinates. Within…
The dielectric spectrum of liquid water, $10^{4} - 10^{11}$ Hz, is interpreted in terms of diffusion of charges, formed as a result of self-ionization of H$_{2}$O molecules. This approach explains the Debye relaxation and the dc…
Ionic liquids constrained at interfaces or restricted in subnanometric pores are increasingly employed in modern technologies, including energy applications. Understanding the details of their behavior in these conditions is therefore…
Iodine (I$_2$) molecules embedded in He nanodroplets are aligned by a 160 ps long laser pulse. The highest degree of alignment, occurring at the peak of the pulse and quantified by $\langle \cos^2 \theta_{2D} \rangle$, is measured as a…
We report on a thorough dielectric investigation of the glass-like freezing of the orbital reorientation-dynamics, recently found for the crystalline sulpho-spinels FeCr2S4 and FeSc2S4. As the orbital reorientations are coupled to a…
A locally heated Janus colloid can achieve motion in a fluid through the coupling of dissolved ions and the medium's polarizibility to an imposed temperature gradient, an effect known as self-thermo(di)electrophoresis. We numerically study…
Electric-field-driven electrolyte transport through nanoporous membranes is important for applications including osmotic power generation, sensing and iontronics. We derive an analytical equation in the Debye--H\"uckel regime and a…
The Debye-H\" uckel formula for ionic activity coefficients is extended for concentrated solutions by solving a simple model of many-body Coulomb correlations and adding the Born solvation energy. Given the bulk permittivity, our formula is…
We study the Stokes-Einstein (SE) and the Stokes-Einstein-Debye (SED) relations using molecular dynamics simulations of the extended simple point charge model of water. We find that both the SE and SED relations break down at low…
Water-in-Salt-Electrolytes (WiSEs) are a promising class of next-generation electrolytes. Unlike classical dilute electrolytes or more conventional battery electrolytes, WiSEs are characterised by their super-concentrated salt concentration…
We analyse the dynamics of different routes to collapse of a constrained polyelectrolyte gel in contact with an ionic bath. The evolution of the gel is described by a model that incorporates non-linear elasticity, Stefan-Maxwell diffusion…
Long-range ion induced water-water correlations were recently observed in femtosecond elastic second harmonic scattering experiments of electrolyte solutions. To further the qualitative understanding of these correlations, we derive an…
We report dielectric relaxation spectroscopy experiments on two rod-like liquid crystals of the cyanobiphenyl family (5CB and 6CB) confined in tubular nanochannels with 7 nm radius and 340 micrometer length in a monolithic, mesoporous…
We present evidence that the Einstein relation (ER) breaks down completely in pure water and dilute aqueous solutions under strong centrifugation fields at 40 oC. Isotopologues (e.g., H2O-18) and solutes migrate at a speed of only 5% of…
A quasi 2-dimensional recursive lattice formed by planar elements have been designed to investigate the surface thermodynamics of Ising spin glass system with the aim to study the metastability of supercooled liquids and the ideal glass…
Previously observed non-Arrhenius behavior in fast ion conducting glasses [\textit{Phys.\ Rev.\ Lett.}\ \textbf{76}, 70 (1996)] occurs at temperatures near the glass transition temperature, $T_{g}$, and is attributed to changes in the ion…
1-Alkanol + alkanenitrile systems have been studied by means of the DISQUAC, ERAS and UNIFAC (Dortmund) models. DISQUAC and ERAS parameters for the alkanol/nitrile interactions are reported. DISQUAC describes a whole set of thermodynamic…
Using molecular dynamics simulations and methods of importance sampling, we study the thermodynamics and dynamics of sodium chloride in the aqueous premelting layer formed spontaneously at the interface between ice and its vapor. We uncover…
Dipole-conserving fluids serve as examples of kinematically constrained systems that can be understood on the basis of symmetry. They are known to display various exotic features including glassylike dynamics, subdiffusive transport, and…
A theoretical treatment of deeply supercooled liquids is difficult because their properties emerge from spatial inhomogeneities that are self-induced, transient, and nanoscopic. I use computer simulations to analyse self-induced static and…
