Spontaneous magnetization of the XXZ Heisenberg spin-1/2 chain

A. G. Izergin, N. Kitanine, J. M. Maillet +1

Determinant representations of form factors are used to represent the spontaneous magnetization of the Heisenberg XXZ chain (Delta >1) on the finite lattice as the ratio of two det…

Scattering of dislocated wavefronts by vertical vorticity and the Aharonov-Bohm effect II: Dispersive waves

Christophe Coste, Fernando Lund

Previous results on the scattering of surface waves by vertical vorticity on shallow water are generalized to the case of dispersive water waves. Dispersion effects are treated per…

Scattering of dislocated wavefronts by vertical vorticity and the Aharonov-Bohm effect I: Shallow water

Christophe Coste, Makoto Umeki, Fernando Lund

When a surface wave interacts with a vertical vortex in shallow water the latter induces a dislocation in the incident wavefronts that is analogous to what happens in the Aharonov-…

Boundary S-matrix for the Gross-Neveu Model

A. De Martino, M. Moriconi

We study the scattering theory for the Gross-Neveu model on the half-line. We find the reflection matrices for the elementary fermions, and by fusion we compute the ones for the tw…

Mean-field theory of temperature cycling experiments in spin-glasses

Leticia F. Cugliandolo, Jorge Kurchan

We study analytically the effect of temperature cyclings in mean-field spin-glasses. In accordance with real experiments, we obtain a strong reinitialization of the dynamics on dec…

Multiscale velocity correlation in turbulence: experiments, numerical simulations, synthetic signals

R. Benzi, L. Biferale, G. Ruiz-Chavarria +2

Multiscale correlation functions in high Reynolds number experimental turbulence, numerical simulations and synthetic signals are investigated. Fusion Rules predictions as they ari…

Formation of disclination lines near a free nematic interface

Jordi Ignes-Mullol, Jean Baudry, Lubor Lejcek +1

We have studied the nucleation and the physical properties of a -1/2 wedge disclination line near the free surface of a confined nematic liquid crystal. The position of the disclin…

Frictional Mechanics of Wet Granular Material

J. -C. Geminard, W. Losert, J. P. Gollub

The mechanical response of a wet granular layer to imposed shear is studied experimentally at low applied normal stress. The granular material is immersed in water and the shear is…

Sur les espaces-temps homogenes

Abdelghani Zeghib

Here, we classify Lie groups acting isometrically on compact Lorentz manifolds, and in particular we describe the geometric structure of compact homogeneous Lorentz manifolds.

Numerical Study of Hawking Radiation Photosphere Formation around Microscopic Black Holes

James M. Cline, Michael Mostoslavsky, Geraldine Servant

Heckler has recently argued that the Hawking radiation emitted from microscopic black holes has sufficiently strong interactions above a certain critical temperature that it forms…

A comparison of two discrete mKdV equations

C. Chandre

We consider here two discrete versions of the modified KdV equation. In one case, some solitary wave solutions, Bäcklund transformations and integrals of motion are known. In the o…

A Langevin equation for the energy cascade in fully-developed turbulence

Philippe Marcq, Antoine Naert

Experimental data from a turbulent jet flow is analysed in terms of an additive, continuous stochastic process where the usual time variable is replaced by the scale. We show that…

A coalescence model for freely decaying two-dimensional turbulence

Emmanuel Trizac

We propose a ballistic coalescence model (punctuated-Hamiltonian approach) mimicking the fusion of vortices in freely decaying two-dimensional turbulence. A temporal scaling behavi…

Bounds on the existence of neutron rich nuclei in neutron star interiors

F. Douchin, P. Haensel

We address the question concerning the maximum density, at which nuclei (and more generally -- nuclear structures) can exist in neutron star interiors. An absolute upper bound to s…

First-principles calculation of the thermal properties of silver

Jianjun Xie, Stefano de Gironcoli, Stefano Baroni +1

The thermal properties of silver are calculated within the quasi-harmonic approximation, by using phonon dispersions from density-functional perturbation theory, and the pseudopote…

Infrared Colors at the Stellar/Substellar Boundary

S. K. Leggett, F. Allard, P. H. Hauschildt

We present new infrared photometry for 61 halo and disk stars around the stellar/substellar boundary. These data are combined with available optical photometry and astrometric data…

Thermal properties of slow dynamics

Leticia F. Cugliandolo, Jorge Kurchan

The limit of small entropy production is reached in relaxing systems long after preparation, and in stationary driven systems in the limit of small driving power. Surprisingly, for…
