Bubble Free Energy in Cosmological Phase Transitions

, 1993
Free energy as a function of temperature and the bubble radius is determined for spherical bubbles created in cosmological first order phase transitions. The phase transition is assumed to be driven by an order parameter (e.g. a Higgs field) with quartic

Quasivoids in Polydisperse Glassy Systems With Atomistic PEL Exploration and Iso‐Configuration Method

Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the microscopic relaxation mechanisms in amorphous solids remains a fundamental challenge. A theoretical framework posits that dynamics are mediated by quasivoids: transient, localized quasi‐particles that are the amorphous analogue of crystalline vacancies.

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Supercooling of rapidly expanding quark-gluon plasma [PDF]

, 2005
We reexamine the scenario of homogeneous nucleation of the quark-gluon plasma produced in ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. A generalization of the standard nucleation theory to rapidly expanding system is proposed.

The Influence of Sea Ice and Ice Mélange on Outlet Glacier Dynamics in the Arctic and Antarctic: Recent Progress and Future Challenges

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Sea ice is situated close to the termini of many outlet glaciers in the Arctic and Antarctic and has the potential to influence their dynamics and, therefore, their contribution to sea level rise. However, the nature, prevalence, and ice‐dynamic significance of sea ice‐glacier interactions remains subject to several open questions.

Seasonal Variability of Precipitation‐Associated Bioaerosols, Including Viruses, and Their Links to Cloud Ice Processes and Precipitation in a Coastal City

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract Viruses constitute a significant subset of bioaerosols whose roles in cloud ice processes remain understudied. Continuous observations of viruses and total airborne microbes (TAMs) in precipitation were conducted in Qingdao from March 2024 to December 2025.

An Experimental Study on the Influence Solution Concentration and Nano-Additives on Cold Storage Performance of Tetrabutylammonium Bromide

Energies
Tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) is considered a promising alternative cold energy storage material. Due to the high dissociation heat of phase transition at an atmospheric pressure of 278–293 K, which reaches 200–500 kJ/kg, this substance is considered

Lightning Outbreaks at the Mature Stage of Tropical Cyclone: Case Study for Hurricane Dorian (2019)

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract The relationship between tropical cyclone (TC) lightning activity and intensity change has been examined for nearly 30 years, yet a clear consensus remains elusive, reflecting the complexity of the processes governing TC lightning. This study investigates the physical mechanisms that triggered inner‐core lightning outbreaks during the mature ...
