The Hydra String Method: A Novel Means to Explore Potential Energy Surfaces and its Application to Granular Materials
Christopher Moakler, Katherine A. Newhall
Granular materials are a ubiquitous yet ill-understood class of media. Many different approaches and techniques have been developed to understand the many complex behaviors they ex…
Non-local SPDE limits of spatially-correlated-noise driven spin systems derived to sample a canonical distribution
Yuan Gao, Jeremy L. Marzuola, Jonathan Mattingly +1
We study the macroscopic behavior of a stochastic spin ensemble driven by a discrete Markov jump process motivated by the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm where the proposal is made w…
Network Mechanism for Insect Olfaction
Pamela B Pyzza, Katherine A Newhall, Douglas Zhou +2
Early olfactory pathway responses to the presentation of an odor exhibit remarkably similar dynamical behavior across phyla from insects to mammals, and frequently involve transiti…
Limiting Behaviors of High Dimensional Stochastic Spin Ensembles
Yuan Gao, Kay Kirkpatrick, Jeremy Marzuola +2
Lattice spin models in statistical physics are used to understand magnetism. Their Hamiltonians are a discrete form of a version of a Dirichlet energy, signifying a relationship to…
Inferring Information Flow in Spike-train Data Sets using a Trial-Shuffle Method
Benjamin Walker, Katherine Newhall
Understanding information processing in the brain requires the ability to determine the functional connectivity between the different regions of the brain. We present a method usin…
Jamming phase diagram of athermal emulsions with short-range attraction
Ivane Jorjadze, Lea-Laetitia Pontani, Katherine Newhall +1
Using confocal microscopy we investigate the effect of attraction on the packing of polydisperse emulsions under gravity. We find that the distributions of neighbors, coordination…
