Science of a coffee cup: a physicist walks into a bar...
Aleksi Bossart, Romain Fleury, Benjamin Apffel
... and annoys everyone with unsolicited experiments. The present paper proposes a short pedagogical review of the various phenomena that can be observed in a coffee cup with littl…
Renormalization group of topological scattering networks
Zhe Zhang, Yifei Guan, Junda Wang +5
Exploring and understanding topological phases in systems with strong distributed disorder requires developing fundamentally new approaches to replace traditional tools such as top…
Experimental observation of parabolic wakes in thin plates
Janez Rus, Aleksi Bossart, Benjamin Apffel +2
Wakes are medium perturbations created by a moving object, such as wave patterns behind boats, or wingtip vortices following an aircraft. Here, we report about an experimental stud…
Extreme Spatial Dispersion in Nonlocally-Resonant Elastic Metamaterials
Aleksi Bossart, Romain Fleury
To date, the vast majority of architected materials have leveraged two physical principles to control wave behavior, namely Bragg interference and local resonances. Here, we descri…
Non-hermitian time evolution: from static to parametric instability
Aleksi Bossart, Romain Fleury
Eigenmode coalescence imparts remarkable properties to non-hermitian time evolution, culminating in a purely non-hermitian spectral degeneracy known as an exceptional point (EP). H…
The Alfvénic nature of chromospheric swirls
Andrea Francesco Battaglia, José Roberto Canivete Cuissa, Flavio Calvo +2
We investigate the evolution and origin of small-scale chromospheric swirls by analyzing numerical simulations of the quiet solar atmosphere, using the radiative magnetohydrodynami…
Oligomodal mechanical metamaterials
Aleksi Bossart, David M. J. Dykstra, Jop van der Laan +1
Mechanical metamaterials are artifical composites that exhibit a wide range of advanced functionalities such as negative Poisson's ratio, shape-shifting, topological protection, mu…
Functional relations in nineteen-vertex models with domain-wall boundaries
A. Bossart, W. Galleas
This work is concerned with functional properties shared by partition functions of nineteen-vertex models with domain-wall boundary conditions. In particular, we describe both Izer…
