Primordial Gravitational Waves in the Cosmic Bubble Chamber

Raymond Angélil, Prasenjit Saha, Jürg Diemand

We explore the effect of relic gravitational waves on the primordial phase change from the quark-gluon plasma into the low density hadron gas that occurred approximately s…

Prospects for Measuring Planetary Spin and Frame-Dragging in Spacecraft Timing Signals

Andreas Schärer, Ruxandra Bondarescu, Prasenjit Saha +3

Satellite tracking involves sending electromagnetic signals to Earth. Both the orbit of the spacecraft and the electromagnetic signals themselves are affected by the curvature of s…

Molecular dynamics simulations of bubble nucleation in dark matter detectors

Philipp Denzel, Jürg Diemand, Raymond Angélil

Bubble chambers and droplet detectors used in dosimetry and dark matter particle search experiments use a superheated metastable liquid in which nuclear recoils trigger bubble nucl…

Homogeneous SPC/E water nucleation in large molecular dynamics simulations

R. Angelil, J. Diemand, K. Tanaka +1

We perform direct large molecular dynamics simulations of homogeneous SPC/E water nucleation, using up to molecules. Our large system sizes allow us to measure e…

Simple improvements to classical bubble nucleation models

Kyoko K. Tanaka, Hidekazu Tanaka, Raymond Angélil +1

We revisit classical nucleation theory (CNT) for the homogeneous bubble nucleation rate and improve the classical formula using a new prefactor in the nucleation rate. Most of the…

Bubble Evolution and Properties in Homogeneous Nucleation Simulations

Raymond Angélil, Jürg Diemand, Kyoko Tanaka +1

We analyze the properties of naturally formed nano-bubbles in Lennard-Jones molecular dynamics simulations of liquid-to-vapor nucleation in the boiling and the cavitation regimes.…

Direct Simulations of Homogeneous Bubble Nucleation: Agreement with CNT and no Local Hot Spots

Jürg Diemand, Raymond Angélil, Kyoko K. Tanaka +1

We present results from direct, large-scale molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of homogeneous bubble (liquid-to-vapor) nucleation. The simulations contain half a billion Lennard-J…

Free energy of cluster formation and a new scaling relation for the nucleation rate

Kyoko K. Tanaka, Jürg Diemand, Raymond Angélil +1

Recent very large molecular dynamics simulations of homogeneous nucleation with Lennard-Jones atoms [Diemand et al. J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 139}, 074309 (2013)] allo…

Properties of Liquid Clusters in Large-scale Molecular Dynamics Nucleation Simulations

Raymond Angélil, Jürg Diemand, Kyoko K. Tanaka +1

We have performed large-scale Lennard-Jones molecular dynamics simulations of homogeneous vapor-to-liquid nucleation, with atoms. This large number allows us to resolve extr…

Large Scale Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Homogeneous Nucleation

Jürg Diemand, Raymond Angélil, Kyoko K. Tanaka +1

We present results from large-scale molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of homogeneous vapor-to-liquid nucleation. The simulations contain between one and eight billion Lennard-Jon…

Galactic-center S-Stars as a prospective test of the Einstein Equivalence Principle

R. Angelil, P. Saha

The S-Stars in the Galactic-center region are found to be on near-perfect Keplerian orbits around presumably a supermassive black hole, with periods of 15-50 yr. Since these stars…

Testing GR with Galactic-centre Stars

Raymond Angelil, Prasenjit Saha

The Galactic Centre S-stars orbiting the central supermassive black hole reach velocities of a few percent of the speed of light. The GR-induced perturbations to the redshift enter…

Towards relativistic orbit fitting of Galactic center stars and pulsars

Raymond Angelil, Prasenjit Saha, David Merritt

The S stars orbiting the Galactic center black hole reach speeds of up to a few percent the speed of light during pericenter passage. This makes, for example, S2 at pericenter much…
