Emergence of Biaxiality in Nematic Liquid Crystals with Magnetic Inclusions: Some Theoretical Insights
Aditya Vats, Sanjay Puri, Varsha Banerjee
The biaxial phase in nematic liquid crystals has been elusive for several decades after its prediction in the 1970s. A recent experimental breakthrough was achieved by Liu et al. […
Critical behavior of the three-state random-field Potts model in three dimensions
Manoj Kumar, Varsha Banerjee, Sanjay Puri +1
Enormous advances have been made in the past 20 years in our understanding of the random-field Ising model, and there is now consensus on many aspects of its behavior at least in t…
Accelerated Inertial Regime in the Spinodal Decomposition of Magnetic Fluids
Anuj Kumar Singh, Varsha Banerjee
Furukawa predicted that at late times, the domain growth in binary fluids scales as , and the growth is driven by fluid inertia. The {\it inertial growth regim…
Equilibrium phases and domain growth kinetics of calamitic liquid crystals
Nishant Birdi, Tom L. Underwood, Nigel B. Wilding +2
The anisotropic shape of calamitic LC particles results in distinct energy values when nematogens are placed side-by-side or end-to-end. The energy anisotropy governed by parameter…
