Approximate calculation of multidimensional first passage times
James F. Lutsko
The general, multidimensional barrier crossing problem for diffusive processes under the action of conservative forces is studied with the goal of developing tractable approximatio…
The use of open boundaries in stochastic hydrodynamic models of nucleation
James F. Lutsko
Stochastic hydrodynamics is a central tool in the study of first order phase transitions at a fundamental level. Combined with sophisticated free energy models, e.g. as developed i…
COLIS: an advanced light scattering apparatus for investigating the structure and dynamics of soft matter onboard the International Space Station
Alessandro Martinelli, Stefano Buzzaccaro, Quentin Galand +8
Colloidal Solids (COLIS) is a state-of-the-art light scattering setup developed for experiments onboard the International Space Station (ISS). COLIS allows for probing the structur…
A microscopic approach to crystallization: challenging the classical/non-classical dichotomy
James F. Lutsko, Cédric Schoonen
Recently, it was shown that a theoretical description of nucleation based on fluctuating hydrodynamics and classical density functional theory can be used to determine non-classica…
Classical Density Functional Theory in the Canonical Ensemble
James F. Lutsko
Classical density functional theory for finite temperatures is usually formulated in the grand-canonical ensemble where arbitrary variations of the local density are possible. Howe…
Reconsidering Power Functional Theory
James F. Lutsko, Martin Oettel
The original derivation of Power Functional Theory, Schmidt and Brader, JCP 138, 214101 (2013), is reworked in some detail with a view to clarifying and simplifying the logic and m…
