A statistical mechanics approach to Granovetter theory

Adriano Barra, Elena Agliari

In this paper we try to bridge breakthroughs in quantitative sociology/econometrics pioneered during the last decades by Mac Fadden, Brock-Durlauf, Granovetter and Watts-Strogats t…

Communication at the quantum speed limit along a spin chain

Michael Murphy, Simone Montangero, Vittorio Giovannetti +1

Spin chains have long been considered as candidates for quantum channels to facilitate quantum communication. We consider the transfer of a single excitation along a spin-1/2 chain…

Scaling Laws of Turbulence and Heating of Fast SolarWind: The Role of Density Fluctuations

V. Carbone, R. Marino, L. Sorriso-Valvo +2

Incompressible and isotropic magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in plasms can be described by an exact relation for the energy flux through the scales. This Yaglom-like scaling law has…

Statistical analysis of magnetic field reversals in laboratory dynamo and in paleomagnetic measurements

L. Sorriso-Valvo, V. Carbone, M. Bourgoin +3

Statistical properties of the temporal distribution of polarity reversals of the geomagnetic field are commonly assumed to be a realization of a renewal Poisson process with a vari…

Bandstructure and Fermi Surfaces of CeRh3B2

Kunihiko Yamauchi, Akira Yanase, Hisatomo Harima

The electronic bandstructure and the Fermi surfaces of ferromagnetic CeRh3B2 are calculated by using FLAPW and LSDA+U method. As assuming several kinds of the ground state to descr…

Finite Quantum Grand Canonical Ensemble and Temperature from Single Electron Statistics in a Mesoscopic Device

Enrico Prati

I present a theoretical model of a quantum statistical ensemble for which, unlike in conventional physics, the total number of particles is extremely small. The thermodynamical qua…
