Dynamical chiral symmetry breaking in sliding nanotubes
X. H. Zhang, G. E. Santoro, U. Tartaglino +1
We discovered in simulations of sliding coaxial nanotubes an unanticipated example of dynamical symmetry breaking taking place at the nanoscale. While both nanotubes are perfectly…

Solitons and exact velocity quantization of incommensurate sliders
Nicola Manini, Marco Cesaratto, Giuseppe E. Santoro +2
We analyze in some detail the recently discovered velocity quantization phenomena in the classical motion of an idealized one-dimensional solid lubricant, consisting of a harmonic…
