Nonequilibrium Dynamics of Long-Range Interacting Fermions

Tabea Nelly Clara Bühler, Jean-Philippe Brantut, Victor Youri Helson, Timo Zwettler, Aurélien Hadrien Fabre, Gaia Stella Bolognini, Giulia Del Pace

A fundamental problem of out-of-equilibrium physics is the speed at which the order parameter grows upon crossing a phase transition. Here, we investigate the ordering dynamics in a Fermi gas undergoing a density-wave phase transition induced by quenching ...

Bias Cancellation of MixColumns

Francesco Regazzoni, Subhadeep Banik, Andrea Felice Caforio

At COSADE'2020, Carre et al. established a novel biascancelling property of the AES MixColumns matrix that effectively corrects any skewed output distribution of a state byte due to a faulty substitution box. Consequently, any effected byte is rendered uni ...

Transcranial magnetic stimulation of the brain: What is stimulated? - A consensus and critical position paper

Traian Popa

Transcranial (electro)magnetic stimulation (TMS) is currently the method of choice to non-invasively induce neural activity in the human brain. A single transcranial stimulus induces a time-varying electric field in the brain that may evoke action potentia ...

Stimulation of medial amygdala GABA neurons with kinetically different channelrhodopsins yields opposite behavioral outcomes

Ralf Schneggenburger, Olexiy Kochubey, Aiste Baleisyte

The medial amygdala (MeA) receives pheromone information about conspecifics and has crucial functions in social behaviors. A previous study showed that activation of GABA neurons in the postero-dorsal MeA (MeApd) with channelrhodopsin-2(H)(134R) (ChR2) sti ...
