Building transport models from baroclinic wave experimental data

M. Agaoglou, V. J. Garcia-Garrido, U. Harlander +1

In this paper we study baroclinic waves both from the experimental and the theoretical perspective. We obtain data from a rotating annulus experiment capable of producing a series…

Bifurcation of Dividing Surfaces Constructed from Period-Doubling Bifurcations of Periodic Orbits in a Caldera Potential Energy Surface

Matthaios Katsanikas, Makrina Agaoglou, Stephen Wiggins

In this work we analyze the bifurcation of dividing surfaces that occurs as a result of two period-doubling bifurcations in a 2D caldera-type potential. We study the structure, the…

Phase space transport in a symmetric Caldera potential with three index-1 saddles and no minima

M. Katsanikas, M. Agaoglou, S. Wiggins +1

We apply the method of Lagrangian Descriptors (LDs) to a symmetric Caldera-type potential energy surface which has three index-1 saddles surrounding a relatively flat region that c…

The time evolution of the trajectories after the selectivity in a symmetric potential energy surface with a post-transition-state bifurcation

Douglas Haigh, Matthaios Katsanikas, Makrina Agaoglou +1

Selectivity is an important phenomenon in chemical reaction dynamics. This can be quantified by the branching ratio of the trajectories that visit one or the other wells to the tot…

Bifurcation of dividing surfaces constructed from a pitchfork bifurcation of periodic orbits in a symmetric potential energy surface with a post-transition-state bifurcation

Matthaios Katsanikas, Makrina Agaoglou, Stephen Wiggins

In this work we analyze the bifurcation of dividing surfaces that occurs as a result of a pitchfork bifurcation of periodic orbits in a two degrees of freedom Hamiltonian System. T…

The bifurcations of the critical points and the role of the depth in a symmetric Caldera potential energy surface

Y. Geng, M. Katsanikas, M. Agaoglou +1

In this work, we continue the study of the bifurcations of the critical points in a symmetric Caldera potential energy surface. In particular, we study the influence of the depth o…
