Free-energy transition in a gas of non-interacting nonlinear wave-particles
Andrea Fratalocchi, Claudio Conti, Giancarlo Ruocco +1
We investigate the dynamics of a gas of non-interacting particle-like soliton waves, demonstrating that phase transitions originate from their collective behavior. This is predicte…
Phase diagram and complexity of mode-locked lasers: from order to disorder
L. Leuzzi, C. Conti, V. Folli +2
We investigate mode-locking processes in lasers displaying a variable degree of structural randomness, from standard optical cavities to multiple-scattering media. By employing met…
On the analysis of the vibrational Boson peak and low-energy excitations in glasses
S. N. Yannopoulos, K. S. Andrikopoulos, G. Ruocco
Implications of reduction procedures applied to the low energy part of the vibrational density of states in glasses and supercooled liquids are considered by advancing a detailed c…
Glassy behavior of light
L. Angelani, C. Conti, G. Ruocco +1
We study the nonlinear dynamics of a multi-mode random laser using the methods of statistical physics of disordered systems. A replica-symmetry breaking phase transition is predict…
On the relationship between phase transitions and topological changes in one dimensional models
L. Angelani, G. Ruocco, F. Zamponi
We address the question of the quantitative relationship between thermodynamic phase transitions and topological changes in the potential energy manifold analyzing two classes of o…
High frequency longitudinal and transverse dynamics in water
E. Pontecorvo, M. Krisch, A. Cunsolo +5
High-resolution, inelastic x-ray scattering measurements of the dynamic structure factor S(Q,ω) of liquid water have been performed for wave vectors Q between 4 and 30 nm^-1 in dis…
