Mesoscopic theory for inhomogeneous mixtures [PDF]
, 2010 Mesoscopic density functional theory for inhomogeneous mixtures of sperical particles is developed in terms of mesoscopic volume fractions by a systematic coarse-graining procedure starting form microscopic theory. Approximate expressions for the correlation functions and for the grand potential are obtained for weak ordering on mesoscopic length ...

Innovations in Statistical Physics [PDF]
, 2014 In 1963-71, a group of people, myself included, formulated and perfected a new approach to physics problems, which eventually came to be known under the names of scaling, universality, and renormalization. This work formed the basis of a wide variety of theories ranging from its starting point in critical phenomena, and moving out to particle physics ...

Individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder Show Larger Preferred Social Distance in Live Dyadic Interactions [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Personal space (PS) regulation is a key component of effective social engagement. PS varies among individuals and is regulated by brain circuits involving the amygdala and the frontoparietal network. Others have reported that simulated PS intrusions suggest larger preferred interpersonal distance (PID) and a central role of amygdala hyperactivity in PS
