Droplets capped with an elastic film can be round, elliptical, or nearly square
Rafael D. Schulman, Kari Dalnoki-Veress
We present experiments which show that the partial wetting of droplets capped by taut elastic films is highly tunable. Adjusting the tension allows the contact angle and droplet mo…
Measuring Dirac Cones in a Sub-Wavelength Metamaterial
Simon Yves, Thomas Berthelot, Mathias Fink +2
The exciting discovery of bi-dimensional systems in condensed matter physics has triggered the search of their photonic analogues. In this letter, we describe a general scheme to r…
Event-chain Monte Carlo with factor fields
Ze Lei, Werner Krauth, A. C. Maggs
We study the dynamics of one-dimensional (1D) interacting particles simulated with the event-chain Monte Carlo algorithm (ECMC). We argue that previous versions of the algorithm su…
Searches for Continuous Gravitational Waves from Fifteen Supernova Remnants and Fomalhaut b with Advanced LIGO
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1129
We describe directed searches for continuous gravitational waves from sixteen well localized candidate neutron stars assuming none of the stars has a binary companion. The searches…
Deep and persistent spectral holes in Tm-doped yttrium orthosilicate for imaging applications
Caroline Venet, Benjamin Car, Lucile Veissier +2
With their optical wavelength in the near infrared (790-800nm) and their unique spectroscopic properties at cryogenic temperatures, thulium-doped crystals are at the center of many…
Multi-stable free states of an active particle from a coherent memory dynamics
Vincent Bacot, Stéphane Perrard, Matthieu Labousse +2
We investigate the dynamics of a deterministic self-propelled particle endowed with coherent memory. We evidence experimentally and numerically that it exhibits several stable free…
