Granular gases: dynamics and collective effects

Alain Barrat, Emmanuel Trizac, Matthieu H. Ernst

We present a biased review of some of the most "spectacular" effects appearing in the dynamics of granular gases where the dissipative nature of the collisions leads to a rich phen…

Atom-molecule theory of broad Feshbach resonances

G. M. Falco, H. T. C. Stoof

We derive the atom-molecule theory for an atomic gas near a broad Feshbach resonance, where the energy dependence of the atom-molecule coupling becomes crucial for understanding ex…

Feshbach resonances in an optical lattice

D. B. M. Dickerscheid, U. Al Khawaja, D. van Oosten +1

We present the theory for ultracold atomic gases in an optical lattice near a Feshbach resonance. In the single-band approximation the theory describes atoms and molecules which ca…

On the equation of state of a dense columnar liquid crystal

H. H. Wensink

An accurate description of a columnar liquid crystal of hard disks at high packing fractions is presented using an improved free-volume theory. It is shown that the orientational e…

Magnetically Stabilized Nematic Order I: Three-Dimensional Bipartite Optical Lattices

F. Zhou, M. Snoek, J. Wiemer +1

We study magnetically stabilized nematic order for spin-one bosons in optical lattices. We show that the Zeeman field-driven quantum transitions between non-nematic Mott states and…

Replica Density Functional Study of One-Dimensional Hard Core Fluids in Porous Media

Hendrik Reich, Matthias Schmidt

A binary quenched-annealed hard core mixture is considered in one dimension in order to model fluid adsorbates in narrow channels filled with a random matrix. Two different density…

The fractal/small-world dichotomy in real-world networks

Gábor Csányi, Balázs Szendröi

We draw attention to a clear dichotomy between small-world networks exhibiting exponential neighborhood growth, and fractal-like networks where neighborhoods grow according to a po…

Model system for classical fluids out of equilibrium

Marisol Ripoll, Matthieu H. Ernst

A model system for classical fluids out of equilibrium, referred to as DPD solid (Dissipative Particles Dynamics), is studied by analytical and simulation methods. The time evoluti…

Inelastic light scattering from a Mott insulator

D. Van Oosten, D. B. M. Dickerscheid, P. van der Straten +1

We propose to use Bragg spectroscopy to measure the excitation spectrum of the Mott insulator state of an atomic Bose gas in an optical lattice. We calculate the structure factor o…

An Integrable Model with non-reducible three particle R-Matrix

J. Ambjorn, Sh. Khachatryan, A. Sedrakyan

We define an integrable lattice model which, in the notation of Yang, in addition to the conventional 2-particle -matrices also contains non-reducible 3-particle -matrices. T…

Crossover temperature of Bose-Einstein condensation in an atomic Fermi gas

G. M. Falco, H. T. C. Stoof

We show that in an atomic Fermi gas near a Feshbach resonance the crossover between a Bose-Einstein condensate of diatomic molecules and a Bose-Einstein condensate of Cooper pairs…

Quantum theory of a vortex line in an optical lattice

J. -P. Martikainen, H. T. C. Stoof

We investigate the quantum theory of a vortex line in a stack of weakly-coupled two-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates, that is created by a one-dimensional optical lattice. We…

Exact Short Time Dynamics for Steeply Repulsive Potentials

James W. Dufty, Matthieu H. Ernst

The autocorrelation functions for the force on a particle, the velocity of a particle, and the transverse momentum flux are studied for the power law potential (sof…

Geometrical aspects of the Z-invariant Ising model

Ruben Costa-Santos

We discuss a geometrical interpretation of the Z-invariant Ising model in terms of isoradial embeddings of planar lattices. The Z-invariant Ising model can be defined on an arbitra…

Pinning of vortices in a Bose-Einstein condensate by an optical lattice

J. W. Reijnders, R. A. Duine

We consider the ground state of vortices in a Bose-Einstein condensate. We show that turning on a weak optical periodic potential leads to a transition from the triangular Abrikoso…
