Coarsening of a Class of Driven Striped Structures
M. R. Evans, Y. Kafri, E. Levine +1
The coarsening process in a class of driven systems exhibiting striped structures is studied. The dynamics is governed by the motion of the driven interfaces between the stripes. W…
Surface states in nearly modulated systems
A. E. Jacobs, D. Mukamel, D. W. Allender
A Landau model is used to study the phase behavior of the surface layer for magnetic and cholesteric liquid crystal systems that are at or near a Lifshitz point marking the boundar…
Why is the DNA Denaturation Transition First Order?
Yariv Kafri, David Mukamel, Luca Peliti
We study a model for the denaturation transition of DNA in which the molecules are considered as composed of a sequence of alternating bound segments and denaturated loops. We take…
Slow Coarsening in a Class of Driven Systems
Y. Kafri, D. Biron, M. R. Evans +1
The coarsening process in a class of driven systems is studied. These systems have previously been shown to exhibit phase separation and slow coarsening in one dimension. We consid…
Phase Transitions in Non-Equilibrium Systems
David Mukamel
Phase transitions and critical behavior of driven systems are reviewed. Models exhibiting phase transitions, spontaneous symmetry breaking, phase separation and coarsening processe…
