Optical tweezers, tools based on strongly focused light, enable optical trapping, manipulation, and characterisation of a wide range of microscopic and nanoscopic …
The impact sensitivity to external stimuli is a critical parameter to evaluate and design high- performance energetic materials (EMs). Investigating factors that affect sensitivity and further …
Constitutive models for shape memory alloys have seen significant development in the last decades. They have evolved from uniaxial, mostly empirical, relations to full-fledged …

We present a candidate quantum field theory of gravity with dynamical critical exponent equal to z= 3 in the UV.(As in condensed-matter systems, z measures the degree of …
Studies of active matter, from molecular assemblies to animal groups, have revealed two broad classes of behaviour: a tendency to align yields orientational order and collective …

The term seismic interferometry refers to the principle of generating new seismic responses by crosscorrelating seismic observations at different receiver locations. The first version of …
Seismic interferometry involves the crosscorrelation of responses at different receivers to obtain the Green's function between these receivers. For the simple situation of an impulsive …

We propose a quantum theory of membranes designed such that the ground-state wavefunction of the membrane with compact spatial topology Σ h reproduces the partition …
