A Bayesian Interpretation of First-Order Phase Transitions
(Springer, 2015)
In this work we review the formalism used in describing the thermodynamics
of first-order phase transitions from the point of view of maximum entropy
inference. We present the concepts of transition temperature, latent ...
Dynamical phase transitions and Loschmidt echo in the infinite-range XY model
(Royal Soc, 2016)
We compare two different notions of dynamical phase transitions in closed quantum systems. The first is identified through the time-averaged value of the equilibrium-order parameter, whereas the second corresponds to ...
Nonequilibrium quantum phase transitions in the XY model: comparison of unitary time evolution and reduced density operator approaches
(IOP Publishing, 2014)
We study nonequilibrium quantum phase transitions in the XY spin 1/2 chain
using the C* algebra. We show that the well-known quantum phase transition at
a magnetic field of h = 1 also persists in the nonequilibrium setting ...
Interacting Partially Directed Self Avoiding Walk From Phase Transition to the Geometry of the Collapsed Phase
(Institute of Mathematical Statistics, 2016)
In this paper, we investigate a model for a 1 1 dimensional self interacting and partially directed self-avoiding walk, usually referred to by the acronym IPDSAW. The interaction intensity and the free energy of the system ...
Screening of some transition metal ions and quantitative determination of copper, cadmium and zinc by solid phase derivative spectrophotometry
(2004)
A simple solid phase spectrophotometric method for both screening of eight transition metal ions plus lead and quantitative determination of copper, cadmium and zinc is described. The method is based on the preparation of ...
Quantum batteries at the verge of a phase transition
(IOP, 2022)
Starting from the observation that the reduced state of a system strongly coupled to a bath is, in general, an athermal state, we introduce and study a cyclic battery-charger quantum device that is in thermal equilibrium, ...
The use of Entanglement Entropy to Classify Quantum Phase Transitions in 1D Ultracold Spinor Bosons.
(2018-07-24)
In this paper, we discuss a novel method based on a quantum-information-tool suitable
to identify and characterize quantum-phases and phase transitions in a broad set of lattice models relevant in condensed-matter systems. ...
Wetting transitions displayed by persistent active particles
(American Physical Society, 2017)
A lattice model for active matter is studied numerically, showing that it displays wetting transitions between three distinctive phases when in contact with an impenetrable wall. The particles in the model move persistently, ...
Gradient theory of domain walls in thin, nematic liquid crystals films
(World Scientific Publishing, 2020)
In this paper, we describe domain walls appearing in a thin, nematic liquid crystal sample subject to an external field with intensity close to the Freedericksz transition threshold. Using the gradient theory of the phase ...
