Spherical model of growing interfaces
, 2015 Building on an analogy between the ageing behaviour of magnetic systems and growing interfaces, the Arcetri model, a new exactly solvable model for growing interfaces is introduced, which shares many properties with the kinetic spherical model.

Relaxation dominated cosmological expansion [PDF]
, 1996 The behavior near the singularity of an isotropic, homogeneous cosmological model with a viscous fluid source is investigated. This turns out to be a relaxation dominated regime.

Surprises from quenches in long-range-interacting systems: temperature inversion and cooling
New Journal of Physics, 2016 What happens when one of the parameters governing the dynamics of a long-range interacting system of particles in thermal equilibrium is abruptly changed (quenched) to a different value?

Fluctuating Currents in Stochastic Thermodynamics I. Gauge Invariance of Asymptotic Statistics
, 2015 Stochastic Thermodynamics uses Markovian jump processes to model random transitions between observable mesoscopic states. Physical currents are obtained from anti-symmetric jump observables defined on the edges of the graph representing the network of ...

The extraction of work from quantum coherence
New Journal of Physics, 2016 The interplay between quantum-mechanical properties, such as coherence, and classical notions, such as energy, is a subtle topic at the forefront of quantum thermodynamics.

Comment on ``Nonuniversal Exponents in Interface Growth''
, 1998 Recently, Newman and Swift[T. J. Newman and M. R. Swift, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 79}, 2261 (1997)] made an interesting suggestion that the strong-coupling exponents of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation may not be universal, but rather depend on the ...

Irreversibility, steady state, and nonequilibrium physics in relativistic heavy ion collisions [PDF]
, 2005 Heavy ion collisions at ultrarelativistic energies offer the opportunity to study the irreversibility of multiparticle processes. Together with the many-body decays of resonances, the multiparticle processes cause the system to evolve according to ...

Comment on "Non-Mean-Field Behavior of the Contact Process on Scale-Free Networks"
, 2007 Recently, Castellano and Pastor-Satorras [1] utilized the finite size scaling (FSS) theory to analyze simulation data for the contact process (CP) on scale-free networks (SFNs) and claimed that its absorbing critical behavior is not consistent with the ...

Unified Quantum Model of Work Generation in Thermoelectric Generators, Solar and Fuel Cells
Entropy, 2016 In the previous papers, the idea of “hidden oscillations” has been applied to explain work generation in semiconductor photovoltaic cells and thermoelectric generators. The aim of this paper is firstly to extend this approach to fuel cells and, secondly,
