Harvesting information to control non-equilibrium states of active matter
Rémi Goerlich, Luís Barbosa Pires, Giovanni Manfredi +2
We propose to use a correlated noise bath to drive an optically trapped Brownian particle that mimics active biological matter. Thanks to the flexibility and precision of our setup…
Fluid descriptions of quantum plasmas
Giovanni Manfredi, Paul-Antoine Hervieux, Jérôme Hurst
Quantum fluid (or hydrodynamic) models provide an attractive alternative for the modeling and simulation of the electron dynamics in nano-scale objects. Compared to more standard a…
Plasma-wall transition and sheath formation
Giovanni Manfredi, Fabrice Valsaque
A review of the theoretical and computational aspects of plasma-wall transition is presented. The conditions for the existence of plasma sheaths in front of a solid surface are est…
Influence of the electron spill-out and nonlocality on gap-plasmons in the limit of vanishing gaps
M. Khalid, O. Morandi, E. Mallet +4
We study the effect of electron spill-out and of nonlocality on the propagation of light inside a gap between two semi-infinite metallic regions. We compare the predictions of a lo…
Is the cosmological constant an eigenvalue?
Giovanni Manfredi
We propose to reinterpret Einstein's field equations as a nonlinear eigenvalue problem, where the cosmological constant plays the role of the (smallest) eigenvalue. This interp…
MOND-like behavior in the Dirac-Milne universe -- Flat rotation curves and mass/velocity relations in galaxies and clusters
Gabriel Chardin, Yohan Dubois, Giovanni Manfredi +2
We show that in the Dirac-Milne universe (a matter-antimatter symmetric universe where the two components repel each other), rotation curves are generically flat beyond the charact…
