Atomistic modeling of the solid-liquid interface of metals and alloys

Edoardo Baldi

Solidification is a phase transformation of utmost importance in material science, for it largely controls materials' microstructure on which a wide range of mechanical properties depends. Almost every human artifact undergoes a transformation that leads t ...

Direct observation of water-mediated single-proton transport between hBN surface defects

Aleksandra Radenovic, Evgenii Glushkov, Ahmet Avsar, Jean Camille Benjamin Comtet, Benoît Grosjean

Super-resolution microscopy of defects in a two-dimensional material unveils the transport of single proton charges at solid/water interfaces. Aqueous proton transport at interfaces is ubiquitous and crucial for a number of fields, ranging from cellular tr ...

Microphysics and dynamics of snowfall associated with a warm conveyor belt over Korea

Alexis Berne, Josué Etienne Gehring, Nikola Besic, Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon, Nicolas Jean François Jullien

On 28 February 2018, 57mm of precipitation associated with a warm conveyor belt (WCB) fell within 21 h over South Korea. To investigate how the large-scale circulation influenced the microphysics of this intense precipitation event, we used radar measureme ...

Rapid solidification of Al-Cu droplets of near eutectic composition

Michel Rappaz, Jonas Valloton

Near eutectic Al-Cu droplets were rapidly solidified by Impulse Atomization. A wide range of microstructural scales was obtained at different cooling rates and undercoolings. The micrographs of the investigated samples revealed two distinct zones of differ ...

Gravity-Independent Oscillate Boiling

Mohamed Farhat, Outi Supponen

Heat transfer in nucleate boiling relies on the detachment and rise of the boiling bubble, in which gravity plays the dominant role. Previous studies showed that in the absence of gravity, the bubble fails to rise, causing the dryout of the heater and sign ...

The Microphysics of Stratiform Precipitation During OLYMPEX: Compatibility Between Triple-Frequency Radar and Airborne In Situ Observations

Jussi Sakari Leinonen

The link between stratiform precipitation microphysics and multifrequency radar observables is thoroughly investigated by exploiting simultaneous airborne radar and in situ observations collected from two aircraft during the OLYMPEX/RADEX (Olympic Mountain ...

Theoretical prediction of the homogeneous ice nucleation rate: disentangling thermodynamics and kinetics

Michele Ceriotti, Bingqing Cheng

Estimating the homogeneous ice nucleation rate from undercooled liquid water is crucial for understanding many important physical phenomena and technological applications, and challenging for both experiments and theory. From a theoretical point of view, d ...
