Asymptotic expansion of the wobbling kink

O F Oxtoby, I V Barashenkov

The method of multiple scales is used to study the wobbling kink of the equation. The amplitude of the wobbling is shown to decay very slowly, as , and hence the wo…

A photometric study of the southern Blazhko star SS For Unambiguous detection of quintuplet components

Katrien Kolenberg, Elisabeth Guggenberger, Thebe Medupe +6

We present our analysis of photometric data in the Johnson B and V filter of the southern Blazhko star SS For. In parallel, we analyzed the V observations obtained with the ASAS-3…

A characteristic signature of fourth order gravity

Kishore N. Ananda, Sante Carloni, Peter K. S. Dunsby

We present for the first time the complete matter power spectrum for gravity which has been derived from the fourth order scalar perturbation equations. This leads to the dis…

Zeros of linear combinations of Laguerre polynomials from different sequences

K Driver, K Jordaan

We study interlacing properties of the zeros of two types of linear combinations of Laguerre polynomials with different parameters, namely and $S_n=L_n^α+bL…

Shear viscosity and out of equilibrium dynamics

Andrej El, Zhe Xu, Carsten Greiner +1

Using Grad's method, we calculate the entropy production and derive a formula for the second-order shear viscosity coefficient in a one-dimensionally expanding particle system, whi…
