Phononic frictional losses of a particle crossing a crystal: linear-response theory
Gabriele Riva, Giacomo Piscia, Nicolas Trojani +3
We address weak-coupling frictional sliding with phononic dissipation by means of analytic many-body techniques. Our model consists of a particle (the "slider") moving through a tw…

Striped twisted state in the orientational epitaxy on quasicrystals
Nicola Manini, Mario Forzanini, Sebastiano Pagano +9
The optimal "twisted" geometry of a crystalline layer on a crystal is long known, but that on a quasicrystal is still unknown and open. We predict analytically that the layer equil…
