Coarse-graining complex dynamics: Continuous Time Random Walks vs. Record Dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Continuous Time Random Walks (CTRW) are widely used to coarse-grain the evolution of systems jumping from a metastable sub-set of their configuration space, or trap, to another via rare intermittent events.

The Kenning

open access: yes, 2017
The Kenning is an experimental and performative essay, composed from three strands of memoir. The first locates the somatic experience of Tai Chi in the Irish countryside, the second describes the use of the ancient Irish language of Ogham in a site-specific choreography, and the third is about growing up in Kent, England.

Sustainable Productivity Growth in Agriculture: The Role of Shifts in R&D Investments and Technology

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The objective of the paper is to evaluate the long‐term prospects of sustainable productivity growth linked to plausible assumptions on public agricultural R&D investments as the key productivity driver. Second, it investigates the role of changing R&D focus from yield maximization to input saving technologies (fertilizers and pesticides). The

The Role of Shape Commensurability in Chirality Transfer: Gold Nanoshape Solutes in a Discotic Nematic Liquid Crystal Solvent

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We report on a suitable approach to predict the chirality “strength” and efficacy of chirality transfer from chiral nanoshape solutes to an achiral discotic nematic (ND) liquid crystal solvent. Highly efficacious chirality transfer based on shape commensurability between nanoshape solute (in the form of gold nanodiscs, GNDs) and a ND solvent was ...

Aging, rejuvenation and memory phenomena in spin glasses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
In this paper, we review several important features of the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of spin glasses. Starting with the simplest experiments, we discuss the scaling laws used to describe the isothermal aging observed in spin glasses after a quench down

Accelerated Discovery‐to‐Unveiling of High‐Performance and Affordable Ammonia Electrode Process by Human–Machine Collaboration Framework

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
By employing dimensionally reduced reaction descriptors, a human–machine collaboration framework for efficient electrochemical nitrate reduction to NH3 electrocatalysts screening is established and drastically shorten the discovery timeframe. A new kinetic model is established in combination with a rotating ring‐disk electrode, unveiling the pivotal ...

Extraction of the Spin Glass Correlation Length

open access: yes, 1998
The peak of the spin glass relaxation rate, S(t)=d{-M_{TRM}(t,t_w)}/H/{d ln t}, is directly related to the typical value of the free energy barrier which can be explored over experimental time scales. A change in magnetic field H generates an energy E_z={

Neuroeconomics: infeasible and underdetermined [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Advocates of neuroeconomics claim to offer the prospect of creating a “unified behavioral theory” by drawing upon the techniques of neuroscience and psychology and combining them with economic theory.
