Convection rolls and three-dimensional particle dynamics in merging solute streams

Robben E. Migacz, Guillaume Durey, Jesse T. Ault

Microparticles migrate in response to gradients in solute concentration through diffusiophoresis and diffusioosmosis. Merging streams of fluid with distinct solute concentrations i…

Vortex breakdown in the shear-driven flow in a rectangular cavity

H. Wang, X. Yu, S. T. Chan +3

The vortex dynamics of laminar flow past a rectangular cavity is investigated using simulations and experiments. The flow is three-dimensional and characterized by a large, dominan…

Higgs in a box: investigating the nature of a scientific discovery

Julia Woithe, Margherita Boselli, Panagiota Chatzidaki +11

The discovery of the Higgs boson by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations in 2012 concluded the longest search for a particle in the history of particle physics and was based on the lar…

Helfrich-Hurault elastic instabilities driven by geometrical frustration

Christophe Blanc, Guillaume Durey, Randall D. Kamien +3

The Helfrich-Hurault (HH) elastic instability is a well-known mechanism behind patterns that form as a result of strain upon liquid crystal systems with periodic ground states. In…

Temperature-driven anchoring transitions at liquid crystal / water interfaces

Guillaume Durey, Yoko Ishii, Teresa Lopez-Leon

Controlling the anchoring of liquid crystal molecules at an interface with a water solution influences the entire organization of the underlying liquid crystal phase, which is cruc…

A change in stripes for cholesteric shells via anchoring in moderation

Lisa Tran, Maxim O. Lavrentovich, Guillaume Durey +7

Chirality, ubiquitous in complex biological systems, can be controlled and quantified in synthetic materials such as cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) systems. In this work, we stud…
