Classical Coulomb systems at equilibrium, bounded by a plane dielectric wall, are studied. A general two-point charge correlation function is considered. Valid for any fixed position of one of the points, a new relation is found between the…
We propose a stochastic model of a fragmentation process, developed by taking into account fragment lifetime as a function of their size based on the Gibrat process. If lifetime is determined by a power function of fragment size, numerical…
The conservation of the intrinsic transverse momentum during parton fragmentation imposes non-trivial constraints on T-odd fragmentation functions. These significantly enhance the differences between the favoured and unfavoured…
The occupation of more than one single-particle state and hence the emergence of fragmentation is a many-body phenomenon universal to systems of spatially confined interacting bosons. In the present study, we investigate the effect of the…
The dibaryon model for $NN$ interaction, which implies the formation of an intermediate six-quark bag dressed by a $\sigma$-field, is applied to the $3N$ system, where it results in a new three-body force of scalar nature between the…
We investigate the shrinkage induced breakup of thin layers of heterogeneous materials attached to a substrate, a ubiquitous natural phenomenon with a wide range of potential applications. Focusing on the evolution of the fragment ensemble,…
We study the problem of diffusing particles which coalesce upon contact. With the aid of a non-perturbative renormalization group, we first analyze the dynamics emerging below the critical dimension two, where strong fluctuations imply…
We investigate the interplay of collective and chaotic motion in a classical self-bound N-body system with two-body interactions. This system displays a hierarchy of three well separated time scales that govern the onset of chaos, damping…
The definition of the scattering volume for $p$-wave collisions needs to be generalized in the presence of dipolar interactions for which the potential decreases with the interparticle separation as $1/R^3$. Here, we propose a generalized…
Some open questions exist with fluctuation-induced forces between extended dipoles. Conventional intuition derives from large-separation perturbative approximations to dispersion force theory. Here we present a full non-perturbative theory.…
We study the relation between a threshold-force based model at the microscopic scale and mode I fracture at the macroscopic scale in a system of discrete interacting springs. Specifically, we idealize the contact between two surfaces as…
The equation which describes a particle diffusing in a logarithmic potential arises in diverse physical problems such as momentum diffusion of atoms in optical traps, condensation processes, and denaturation of DNA molecules. A detailed…
Impact-induced fragmentation is a fundamental dissipative process in geosciences, yet its stochastic nature makes predicting debris evolution a persistent challenge. Here, we introduce a discrete element framework to resolve fragmentation…
We make the first steps towards a generic theory for energy spreading and quantum dissipation. The Wall formula for the calculation of friction in nuclear physics and the Drude formula for the calculation of conductivity in mesoscopic…
Breakup reactions are generally quite complicated, they involve nuclear and electromagnetic forces including interference effects. Coulomb dissociation is an especially simple and important mechanism since the perturbation due to the…
The universal theory of order parameter fluctuations (delta scaling laws) is applied to a wide range of intermediate energy heavy-ion collision data obtained with INDRA. This systematic study confirms that the observed fragment production…
Work is devoted to physics of current transport in a wide class of the hetero-phase granulated mediums and similar systems with set of metal or semi-conductor granules, quantum dots or potential wells in which the exit from Coulomb blockade…
We study a three-body system, formed by a light particle and two identical heavy dipoles, in two dimensions in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. We present the analytic light-particle wave function resulting from an attractive zero-range…
The conventional formulation of power absorption, optical forces, and torques on dipolar particles involve lenghty and cumbersome expressions that obscure their shared physical origin. We apply a bispinor formalism that unifies these…
The single-particle inclusive fragmentation function and the particle multiplicity are observables of fundamental importance in studying properties of quantum chromodynamics at colliders. It is well-known that at high energies, the…
