Spectral thermodynamics of a soliton heat engine
M. Ahumada, J. F. MarÃn
We demonstrate a thermodynamic engine whose working substance is a sine-Gordon soliton in a heterogeneous current-driven Josephson junction. We show that solitons can act as thermo…
Quasi-fluxon bubble dynamics in a rapid oscillatory microwave field
Alicia G. Castro-Montes, Elram S. Figueroa, Juan F. MarÃn +1
In this article, we numerically study the dynamics of a two-dimensional quasi-fluxon bubble in an oscillatory regime stabilized by a localized annular force under a rapidly oscilla…
Evolving disorder and chaos enhances the wave speed of elastic waves
M. Ahumada, L. Trujillo, J. F. MarÃn
Static or frozen disorder, characterised by spatial heterogeneities, influences diverse complex systems, encompassing many-body systems, equilibrium and nonequilibrium states of ma…
Highly-enhanced propagation of long-range kinks in heterogeneous media
Jorge A. González, Alberto BellorÃn, Luis E. Guerrero +2
We investigate a field-theoretical model that describes the interaction between kinks and antikinks and between kinks and other heterogeneous fields and impurities. We show that th…
A synchrotron-like pumped ring resonator for water waves
Isis Vivanco, Alexander Egli, Bruce Cartwright +2
The wave-like behaviour of matter in quantum physics has spurred insightful analogies between the dynamics of particles and waves in classical systems. In this study, drawing inspi…
