Lifetimes of Metal Nanowires with Broken Axial Symmetry
Lan Gong, J. Bürki, Charles A. Stafford +1
We present a theoretical approach for understanding the stability of simple metal nanowires, in particular monovalent metals such as the alkalis and noble metals. Their cross secti…

Noisy Classical Field Theories with Two Coupled Fields: Dependence of Escape Rates on Relative Field Stiffnesses
Lan Gong, D. L. Stein
Exit times for stochastic Ginzburg-Landau classical field theories with two or more coupled classical fields depend on the interval length on which the fields are defined, the pote…

The Escape Problem in a Classical Field Theory With Two Coupled Fields
Lan Gong, D. L. Stein
We introduce and analyze a system of two coupled partial differential equations with external noise. The equations are constructed to model transitions of monovalent metallic nanow…
