Mixed-order phase transition in a colloidal crystal

Ricard Alert, Pietro Tierno, Jaume Casademunt

Mixed-order phase transitions display a discontinuity in the order parameter like first-order transitions yet feature critical behavior like second-order transitions. Such transiti…

Spinning superfluid helium-4 nanodroplets

Francesco Ancilotto, Manuel Barranco, Marti Pi

We have studied spinning superfluid He nanodroplets at zero temperature using Density Functional theory. Due to the irrotational character of the superfluid flow, the shapes of…

Emergent Hydrodynamic Bound States Between Magnetically Powered Micropropellers

Fernando Martinez-Pedrero, Eloy Navarro-Argemi, Antonio Ortiz-Ambriz +2

Hydrodynamic interactions (HIs), namely solvent mediated long-range interactions between dispersed particles, play a crucial role in the assembly and dynamics of many active system…

Density Functional Theory of doped superfluid liquid helium and nanodroplets

Francesco Ancilotto, Manuel Barranco, Francois Coppens +5

During the last decade, density function theory (DFT) in its static and dynamic time dependent forms, has emerged as a powerful tool to describe the structure and dynamics of doped…

Orientational Dynamics of Fluctuating Dipolar Particles Assembled in a Mesoscopic Colloidal Ribbon

Helena Massana-Cid, Fernando Martinez-Pedrero, Andrejs Cebers +1

We combine experiments and theory to investigate the dynamics and orientational fluctuations of ferromagnetic microellipsoids that form a ribbon-like structure due to attractive di…

Interaction-enhanced flow of a polariton persistent current in a ring

A. Gallemí, M. Guilleumas, M. Richard +1

We study the quantum hydrodynamical features of exciton-polaritons flowing circularly in a ring-shaped geometry. We consider a resonant-excitation scheme in which the spinor polari…

Direct Observation of Transverse and Vortex Metastable Magnetic Domains observed in Cylindrical Nanowires

C. Bran, J. A. Fernandez-Roldan, E. M. Palmero +9

We present experimental evidence of metastable magnetic domains in cylindrical CoNi nanowires. Transverse (perpendicular) domains have been previously observed only in flat nanostr…

The onset of nanoscale dissipation in superfluid He-4 at zero temperature: the role of vortex shedding and cavitation

Francesco Ancilotto, Manuel Barranco, Marti Pi +1

Two-dimensional flow past an infinitely long cylinder of nanoscopic radius in superfluid He-4 at zero temperature is studied by time-dependent density functional theory. The calcul…

How the stability of a folded protein depends on interfacial water properties and residue-residue interactions

Valentino Bianco, Neus Pagès Gelabert, Ivan Coluzza +1

Proteins work only if folded in their native state, but changes in temperature T and pressure P induce their unfolding. Therefore for each protein there is a stability region (SR)…

Direct observation of enhanced magnetism in individual size- and shape-selected 3d transition metal nanoparticles

Armin Kleibert, Ana Balan, Rocio Yanes +10

Magnetic nanoparticles are important building blocks for future technologies ranging from nano-medicine to spintronics. Many related applications require nanoparticles with tailore…

Long-range proximity effect in Nb-based heterostructures induced by a magnetically inhomogeneous permalloy layer

Carla Cirillo, Stefano Voltan, Katsiaryna Ilyina +4

Odd-frequency triplet Cooper pairs are believed to be the carriers of long-range superconducting correlations in ferromagnets. Such triplet pairs are generated by inhomogeneous mag…
