Irreducible finite-size effects in surface free energies from crystal-nucleation data
T. Zykova-Timan, C. Valeriani, E. Sanz +2
In this Letter we report a simulation study in which we compare the solid-liquid interfacial free energy of NaCl at coexistence, with the value that follows from the height of the…
Modeling friction: From nanoscale to mesoscale
Andrea Vanossi, Nicola Manini, Michael Urbakh +2
The physics of sliding friction is gaining impulse from nanoscale and mesoscale experiments, simulations, and theoretical modeling. This Colloquium reviews some recent developments…
Crossover from adiabatic to antiadiabatic quantum pumping with dissipation
Franco Pellegrini, Carlotta Negri, Fabio Pistolesi +3
Quantum pumping, in its different forms, is attracting attention from different fields, from fundamental quantum mechanics, to nanotechnology, to superconductivity. We investigate…
Finite temperature properties of clusters by replica exchange metadynamics: the water nonamer
Yingteng Zhai, Alessandro Laio, Erio Tosatti +1
We introduce an approach for the accurate calculation of thermal properties of classical nanoclusters. Based on a recently developed enhanced sampling technique, replica exchange m…
