Quantization of the classical Mpemba effect

Jannis Melles, Hartmut Löwen, Benno Liebchen +4

The Mpemba effect refers to the counterintuitive phenomenon that an initially hot system can freeze faster than an initially warm one. Recent years have brought major advances in b…

Quantum-enabled active matter at the atomic scale

Sabrina Burgardt, Julian Feß, Alexander Guthmann +8

Active matter comprises particles that extract energy from their local environment and convert it into motion. Although active particles have been miniaturized down to the nanoscal…
