Statistical mechanics of specular reflections from fluctuating membranes and interfaces
Amir Azadi, David R. Nelson
We study the density of specular reflection points in the geometrical optics limit when light scatters off fluctuating interfaces and membranes in thermodynamic equilibrium. We foc…
Neutral versus charged defect patterns in curved crystals
Amir Azadi, Gregory M. Grason
Characterizing the complex spectrum of topological defects in ground states of curved crystals is a long-standing problem with wide implications, from the mathematical Thomson prob…
Emergent structure of multi-dislocation ground states in curved crystals
Amir Azadi, Gregory M. Grason
We study the structural features and underlying principles of multi-dislocation ground states of a crystalline spherical cap. In the continuum limit where the ratio of crystal size…
Defects in Crystalline Packings of Twisted Filament Bundles: II. Dislocations and Grain Boundaries
Amir Azadi, Gregory M. Grason
Twisted and rope-like assemblies of filamentous molecules are common and vital structural elements in cells and tissue of living organisms. We study the intrinsic frustration occur…
