Universal scaling of tunable Yu-Shiba-Rusinov states across the quantum phase transition

Quantum magnetic impurities give rise to a wealth of phenomena attracting tremendous research interest in recent years. On a normal metal, magnetic impurities generate the correlation-driven Kondo effect. On a superconductor, bound states emerge inside the ...

Alpha-NML Universal Predictors

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Marco Bondaschi

Inspired by Sibson’s alpha-mutual information, we introduce a new parametric class of universal predictors. This class interpolates two well-known predictors, the mixture estimator, that includes the Laplace and the Krichevsky-Trofimov predictors, and the ...

Electromagnetic forces in the time domain

Olivier Martin, Karim Achouri, Andrei Kiselev

We look beyond the standard time-average approach and investigate optical forces in the time domain. The formalism is developed for both the Abraham and Minkowski momenta, which appear to converge in the time domain. We unveil an extremely rich - and by fa ...

Maximum-energy records in glassy energy landscapes

Riccardo Ravasio, Marco Baity-Jesi

We study the evolution of the maximum energy E-max(t) reached between time 0 and time t in the dynamics of simple models with glassy energy landscapes, after an instant quench from infinite temperature to a target temperature T. Through a detailed descript ...

Infiltration of tin bronze into alumina particle beds: influence of alloy chemistry on drainage curves

Andreas Mortensen, Ludger Weber, Alain Léger

The wetting of angular alumina particle preforms by Cu-Sn alloys is investigated by means of pressure infiltration experiments conducted at 1150 A degrees C, using a system enabling dynamic and precise measurements of the metal volume injected into the pre ...

Universal scaling of plasmon coupling in metal nanostructures: Checking the validity for higher plasmonic modes using second harmonic generation

Olivier Martin, Pierre-François Marie Brevet, Jérémy Butet

The universal scaling of plasmon coupling in metallic nanostructures is now a well-established feature. However, if the interaction between dipolar plasmon modes has been intensively studied, this is not the case of the coupling between higher order ones. ...

HESS Opinions: Hydrologic predictions in a changing environment: behavioral modeling

Bettina Schaefli

Most hydrological models are valid at most only in a few places and cannot be reasonably transferred to other places or to far distant time periods. Transfer in space is difficult because the models are conditioned on past observations at particular places ...

Language Virtualization for Heterogeneous Parallel Computing

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Hassan Chafi

As heterogeneous parallel systems become dominant, application developers are being forced to turn to an incompatible mix of low level programming models (e.g. OpenMP, MPI, CUDA, OpenCL). However, these models do little to shield developers from the diffic ...

Dynamic group communication

André Schiper

Group communication is the basic infrastructure for implementing fault-tolerant replicated servers. While group communication is well understood in the context of static groups (in which the membership does not change), current specifications of dynamic ...
