Glass glass transition and new dynamical singularity points in an analytically solvable p-spin glass like model

Antonio Caiazzo, Antonio Coniglio, Mario Nicodemi

We introduce and analytically study a generalized p-spin glass like model that captures some of the main features of attractive glasses, recently found by Mode Coupling investigati…

Shear instabilities in granular mixtures

Massimo Pica Ciamarra, Mario Nicodemi, Antonio Coniglio

Dynamical instabilities in fluid mechanics are responsible of a variety of important common phenomena, such as waves on the sea surface or Taylor vorteces in Couette flow. In granu…

Record dynamics and the observed temperature plateau in the magnetic creep rate of type II superconductors

L. P. Oliveira, Henrik Jeldtoft Jensen, Mario Nicodemi +1

We use Monte Carlo simulations of a coarse grained three dimensional model to demonstrate that the experimentally observed approximate temperature independence of the magnetic cree…

Segregation in fluidized versus tapped packs

Marco Tarzia, Annalisa Fierro, Mario Nicodemi +1

We compare the predictions of two different statistical mechanics approaches, corresponding to different physical measurements, proposed to describe binary granular mixtures subjec…

Statistical Mechanics of segregation in binary granular mixtures

M. Tarzia, A. Fierro, M. Nicodemi +2

We discuss mixing/segregation phenomena in a schematic hard spheres lattice model for binary mixtures of granular media, by analytical evaluation, within Bethe-Peierls approximatio…

Statistical Mechanics of jamming and segregation in granular media

M. Nicodemi, A. Coniglio, A. de Candia +3

In the framework of schematic hard spheres lattice models we discuss Edwards' Statistical Mechanics approach to granular media. As this approach appears to hold here to a very good…
