Wetting Phase Transition at the Surface of Liquid Ga-Bi alloys: An X-ray Reflectivity Study
Holger Tostmann, Oleg Shpyrko, Peter S. Pershan +3
X-ray reflectivity measurements of the binary liquid Ga-Bi alloy reveal a dramatically different surface structure above and below the monotectic temperature …
Surface layering of liquids: The role of surface tension
Oleg Shpyrko, Masafumi Fukuto, Peter Pershan +4
Recent measurements show that the free surfaces of liquid metals and alloys are always layered, regardless of composition and surface tension; a result supported by three decades o…
Genetic Algorithms and Critical Phenomena
A. Barrañón, J. A. López, C. O. Dorso
Genetic algorithms based on natural selection and minimal fluctuations have been applied to model physical and biological systems. Critical exponents have been extracted via comput…
Magnetic Trapping of Neutral Particles: A Study of a Physically Realistic Model
S. Gov, S. Shtrikman, H. Thomas
We study, both classically and quantum-mechanically, the problem of a neutral particle with spin S, mass m and magnetic moment mue, moving in two-dimensions in an inhomogeneous mag…
1D Toy Model For Trapping Neutral Particles
S. Gov, S. Shtrikman, H. Thomas
We study, both classically and quantum-mechanically, the problem of a neutral particle with spin, moving in one-dimension in an inhomogeneous magnetic field. This problem serves fo…
