Jamming, relaxation, and memory in a structureless glass former

Patrick Charbonneau, Peter K. Morse

Real structural glasses form through various out-of-equilibrium processes, including temperature quenches, rapid compression, shear, and aging. Each of these processes should be fo…

Generating large disordered stealthy hyperuniform systems with ultra-high accuracy to determine their physical properties

Peter K. Morse, Jaeuk Kim, Paul J. Steinhardt +1

Hyperuniform many-particle systems are characterized by a structure factor that is precisely zero as ; and stealthy hyperuniform systems…

The dimensional evolution of structure and dynamics in hard sphere liquids

Patrick Charbonneau, Yi Hu, Joyjit Kundu +1

The formulation of the mean-field, infinite-dimensional solution of hard sphere glasses is a significant milestone for theoretical physics. How relevant this description might be f…

Three simple scenarios for high-dimensional sphere packings

Patrick Charbonneau, Peter K. Morse, Will Perkins +1

Based on results from the physics and mathematics literature which suggest a series of clearly defined conjectures, we formulate three simple scenarios for the fate of hard sphere…

Thermodynamic stability of hard sphere crystals in dimensions 3 through 10

Patrick Charbonneau, Caitlin M. Gish, Robert S. Hoy +1

Although much is known about the metastable liquid branch of hard spheres--from low dimension up to --its crystal counterpart remains largely unexplored for …

A direct link between active matter and sheared granular systems

Peter K. Morse, Sudeshna Roy, Elisabeth Agoritsas +3

The similarity in mechanical properties of dense active matter and sheared amorphous solids has been noted in recent years without a rigorous examination of the underlying mechanis…

Memory formation in jammed hard spheres

Patrick Charbonneau, Peter Morse

Liquids equilibrated below an onset density share similar inherent states, while above that density their inherent states markedly differ. Although this phenomenon was first report…

Predicting plasticity in disordered solids from structural indicators

D. Richard, M. Ozawa, S. Patinet +16

Amorphous solids lack long-range order. Therefore identifying structural defects -- akin to dislocations in crystalline solids -- that carry plastic flow in these systems remains a…

Two classes of events in sheared particulate matter

Peter K. Morse, Sven Wijtmans, Merlijn van Deen +2

Under shear, a system of particles changes its contact network and becomes unstable as it transitions between mechanically stable states. For hard spheres at zero pressure, contact…

A simple random matrix model for the vibrational spectrum of jammed packings

E M Stanifer, P K Morse, A A Middleton +1

To better understand the surprising low-frequency vibrational modes in structural glasses, we study the spectra of a large ensemble of sparse random matrices where disorder is cont…

Echoes of the glass transition in athermal soft spheres

Peter Morse, Eric Corwin

Recent theoretical advances have led to the creation of a unified phase diagram for the thermal glass and athermal jamming transitions. This diagram makes clear that, while related…

Hidden symmetries in jammed systems

Peter K. Morse, Eric I. Corwin

There are deep, but hidden, geometric structures within jammed systems, associated with hidden symmetries. These can be revealed by repeated transformations under which these struc…

Geometric order parameters derived from the Voronoi tessellation show signatures of the jamming transition

Peter K. Morse, Eric I. Corwin

A jammed packing of frictionless spheres at zero temperature is perfectly specified by the network of contact forces from which mechanical properties can be derived. However, we ca…

Probing the Sensitivity of Electron Wave Interference to Disorder-Induced Scattering in Solid-State Devices

B. C. Scannell, I. Pilgrim, A. M. See +11

The study of electron motion in semiconductor billiards has elucidated our understanding of quantum interference and quantum chaos. The central assumption is that ionized donors ge…

Phase transitions on the surface of a carbon nanotube

Zenghui Wang, Jiang Wei, Peter Morse +3

A suspended carbon nanotube can act as a nanoscale resonator with remarkable electromechanical properties and the ability to detect adsorption on its surface at the level of single…
