Thermal expansion and the glass transition
P. Lunkenheimer, A. Loidl, B. Riechers +2
Melting is well understood in terms of the Lindemann criterion, essentially stating that crystalline materials melt when the thermal vibrations of their atoms become such vigorous…
Microscopic theory for the pair correlation function of liquidlike colloidal suspensions under shear flow
Luca Banetta, Francesco Leone, Carmine Anzivino +2
We present a theoretical framework to investigate the microscopic structure of concentrated hard-sphere colloidal suspensions under strong shear flows by fully taking into account…
Possible enhancement of the superconducting due to sharp Kohn-like soft phonon anomalies
Cunyuan Jiang, Enrico Beneduce, Matteo Baggioli +2
Phonon softening is a ubiquitous phenomenon in condensed matter systems which is often associated with charge density wave (CDW) instabilities and anharmonicity. The interplay betw…
Combined Description of Pressure-Volume-Temperature and Dielectric Relaxation of Several Polymeric and Low-Molecular-Weight Organic Glass-Formers using 'SL-TS2' Mean-Field Approach
Valeriy V. Ginzburg, Alessio Zaccone, Riccardo Casalini
We apply our recently-developed mean-field 'SL-TS2' (two-state Sanchez-Lacombe) model to simultaneously describe dielectric alpha-relaxation time and pressure-volume-temperature (P…
Solution to the two-body Smoluchowski equation with shear flow for charge-stabilized colloids at low to moderate Péclet numbers
Simone Riva, Luca Banetta, Alessio Zaccone
We developed an analytical theoretical method to determine the microscopical structure of weakly to moderately sheared colloidal suspensions in dilute conditions. The microstructur…
Analytical theory of enhanced Bose-Einstein condensation in thin films
Riccardo Travaglino, Alessio Zaccone
We present an analytically solvable theory of Bose-Einstein condensation in thin film geometries. Analytical closed-form expressions for the critical temperature are obtained in bo…
Theory of Superconductivity Mediated by Topological Phonons
Daniele Di Miceli, Chandan Setty, Alessio Zaccone
Topological phononic insulators are the counterpart of three-dimensional quantum spin Hall insulators in phononic systems and, as such, their topological surfaces are characterized…
Explicit Analytical Solution for Random Close Packing in d=2 and d=3
Alessio Zaccone
We present an analytical derivation of the volume fractions for random close packing (RCP) in both and , based on the same methodology. Using suitably modified nearest n…
