Modeling contact formation between atomic-sized gold tips via molecular dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The formation and rupture of atomic-sized contacts is modelled by means of molecular dynamics simulations. Such nano-contacts are realized in scanning tunnelling microscope and mechanically controlled break junction experiments.

Experimental and Numerical Study of Locking of Low-Frequency Fluctuations of a Semiconductor Laser with Optical Feedback

open access: yesPhotonics, 2022
We study the output of a semiconductor laser with optical feedback operated in the low-frequency fluctuations (LFFs) regime and subject to weak sinusoidal current modulation.

One-loop mass shift formula for kinks and self-dual vortices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A formula is derived that allows us to compute one-loop mass shifts for kinks and self-dual Abrikosov-Nielsen-Olesen vortices. The procedure is based in canonical quantization and heat kernel/zeta function regularization methods.Comment: LaTex file, 8 ...

The influence of magnetic field geometry on magnetars X-ray spectra [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Nowadays, the analysis of the X-ray spectra of magnetically powered neutron stars or magnetars is one of the most valuable tools to gain insight into the physical processes occurring in their interiors and magnetospheres.

Soliton ratchets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The mechanism underlying the soliton ratchet, both in absence and in presence of noise, is investigated. We show the existence of an asymmetric internal mode on the soliton profile which couples, trough the damping in the system, to the soliton ...

Current-driven skyrmion motion along disordered magnetic tracks

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2017
The motion of skyrmions along ferromagnetic strips driven by current pulses is theoretically analyzed by means of micromagnetic simulations. Analytical expressions describing the skyrmion dynamics during and after the current pulse are obtained from an ...

Quantum calculation of vortices in the inner crust of neutron stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We study, within a quantum mechanical framework based on self-consistent mean field theory, the interaction between a vortex and a nucleus immersed in a sea of free neutrons, a scenario representative of the inner crust of neutron stars.

Influence of particle size in silo discharge

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
Recently Janda et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 248001 (2012)] reported an experimental study where it was measured the velocity and volume fraction fields of 1 mm diameter stainless steel beads in the exit of a two-dimensional silo.

Power Corrections to Perturbative QCD and OPE in Gluon Green Functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We show that QCD Green functions in Landau Gauge exhibit sizable $O(1/\mu^2)$ corrections to the expected perturbative behavior at energies as high as 10 GeV. We argue that these are due to a $$-condensate which does not vanish in Landau gauge.Comment: 3

Micromagnetic analysis of geometrically controlled current-driven magnetization switching

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2017
The magnetization dynamics induced by current pulses in a pair of two “S-shaped” ferromagnetic elements, each one consisting on two oppositely tilted tapered spikes at the ends of a straight section, is theoretically studied by means of micromagnetic ...
