Studying crystal structures of superprotonic phases of alkali metal hydrogen sulfates and selenates, a very unusual phenomenon has been revealed. Dynamically disordered hydrogen atoms with low position occupancies are clearly seen in…
A recently introduced active phase field crystal model describes the formation of ordered resting and traveling crystals in systems of self-propelled particles. Increasing the active drive, a resting crystal can be forced to perform…
We study the dynamics of small fluctuations about the uniform state of a crystal moving through a dissipative medium, e.g. a sedimenting colloidal crystal or a moving flux lattice, using a set of continuum equations for the displacement…
Charge transport in crystalline organic semiconductors is intrinsically limited by the presence of large thermal molecular motions, which are a direct consequence of the weak van der Waals inter-molecular interactions. These lead to an…
We present a joint theoretical and experimental study to investigate polymorphism in $\alpha$-sexithiophene (6T) crystals. By means of density-functional theory calculations, we clarify that the low-temperature phase is favorable over the…
A microscopic field theory for crystallization in active systems is proposed which unifies the phase-field-crystal model of freezing with the Toner-Tu theory for self-propelled particles. A wealth of different active crystalline states are…
Motion of chemically driven droplets is analyzed by applying a solvability condition of perturbed hydrodynamic equations affected by the adsorbate concentration. Conditions for traveling bifurcation analogous to a similar transition in…
The phenomenon of stabilization of highly excited states of hydrogen atom in a strong monochromatic field is discussed. Approximate description of dynamics by the introduced Kramers map allows to understand the main properties of this…
In this work we study the dynamics and stability of charged solitons in trans-polyacetylene (tPA), and revisit the issue of the stability of these non-linear excitations under the effect of an external electric field applied parallel to the…
Aqueous radiation chemistry emerges through ultrafast proton transfer and ion-radical formation with unexplored energy-redistribution dynamics steering the subsequent reactions. We performed time-resolved disruptive probing on pure water…
A percolation model is proposed to explain the structural phase transitions found in Li$_{1-x}$H$_x$IO$_3$ mixed crystals as a function of the concentration parameter $x$. The percolation thresholds are obtained from Monte Carlo simulations…
We consider stability of differentially rotating non-magnetic proto-neutron stars. When neutrino transport is efficient, the star can be subject to a diffusive instability that can occur even in the convectively stable region. The…
The behavior of spinning particles in the stationary homogeneous electric field is considered and trajectories are found for various spin orientations. We study the acceleration of spinning particles by an electric field, as well as the…
In this paper we will investigate dynamic stability of percolation for the stochastic Ising model and the contact process. We also introduce the notion of downward and upward $\epsilon$-movability which will be a key tool for our analysis.
Lithium-ion batteries rely on particulate porous electrodes to realize high performance, especially the fast-charging capability. To minimize the particle-wise reaction heterogeneities that may lead to local hot spots, deeper understandings…
Aims. The mobility of H atoms on the surface of interstellar dust grains at low temperature is still a matter of debate. In dense clouds, the hydrogenation of adsorbed species (i.e., CO), as well as the subsequent deuteration of the…
We study an experimental system of hard granular squares in two dimensions, energized by vibration. The interplay of order in the orientations and positions of anisotropic particles allows for a rich set of phases. We measure the structure…
It is shown that particle motion in a bent (straight) crystal is accompanied by particle spin rotation and oscillations that allows to measure the tensor electric and magnetic polarizabilities of nuclei and elementary particles. It is shown…
Fast dynamic processes between electrons in solids and a foreign atom represent a fundamental challenge for describing interactions in many-body systems and are a prerequisite for modelling materials modification. We experimentally…
Using Path Integral Monte Carlo we calculate exchange frequencies in bulk hcp 4He as atoms undergo ring exchange. We fit the frequencies to a lattice model and examine whether such atoms could become a supersolid, that is have a…
