Solid Capillarity: When and How does Surface Tension Deform Soft Solids?

Bruno Andreotti, Oliver Baeumchen, Francois Boulogne +6

Soft solids differ from stiff solids in an important way: their surface stresses can drive large deformations. Based on a topical workshop held in the Lorentz Center in Leiden, thi…

The excitonic insulator route through a dynamical phase transition induced by an optical pulse

Serguei Brazovskii, Natasha Kirova

We consider a dynamical phase transition induced by a short optical pulse in a system prone to thermodynamical instability. We address the case of pumping to excitons whose density…

Precision Mass Measurements of 129-131Cd and Their Impact on Stellar Nucleosynthesis via the Rapid Neutron Capture Process

D. Atanasov, P. Ascher, K. Blaum +17

Masses adjacent to the classical waiting-point nuclide 130Cd have been measured by using the Penning- trap spectrometer ISOLTRAP at ISOLDE/CERN. We find a significant deviation of…
