Universal Casimir attraction between filaments at the cell scale

Anne-Florence Raphaëlle Bitbol

The electromagnetic Casimir interaction between dielectric objects immersed in salted water includes a universal contribution that is not screened by the solvent and therefore long-ranged. Here, we study the geometry of two parallel dielectric cylinders. W ...

Heuristic Estimation of the Vacuum Energy Density of the Universe: Part II-Analysis Based on Frequency Domain Electromagnetic Radiation

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

In Part I of this paper, an inequality satisfied by the vacuum energy density of the universe was derived using an indirect and heuristic procedure. The derivation is based on a proposed thought experiment, according to which an electron is accelerated to ...

Chiral magnetohydrodynamics with zero total chirality

Salim Bennouna

We study the evolution of magnetic fields coupled with chiral fermion asymmetry in the framework of chiral magnetohydrodynamics with zero initial total chirality. The initial magnetic field has a turbulent spectrum peaking at a certain characteristic scale ...

Neural Energy Casimir Control for Port-Hamiltonian Systems

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate, Muhammad Zakwan, Liang Xu

The energy Casimir method is an effective controller design approach to stabilize port-Hamiltonian systems at a desired equilibrium. However, its application relies on the availability of suitable Casimir and Lyapunov functions, whose computation are gener ...

Linearized supergravity with a dynamical preferred frame

Sergey Sibiryakov

We study supersymmetric extension of the Einstein-aether gravitational model where local Lorentz invariance is broken down to the subgroup of spatial rotations by a vacuum expectation value of a timelike vector field called aether. Embedding aether into a ...

Dynamic force coefficients identification on air-lubricated herringbone grooved journal bearing

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Eliott Philippe Guenat

The Narrow Groove Theory (NGT) is commonly used to simulate and design grooved gas bearing. However, measurements of dynamic force coefficients of Herringbone Grooved Journal Bearings (HGJBs) is missing, hence the validation historic NGT has never been per ...

Beam transfer function measurements used to probe the transverse Landau damping at the LHC

Tatiana Pieloni, Xavier Buffat, Javier Barranco Garcia, Claudia Tambasco

The Landau damping mechanism stabilizes the impedance driven head-tail modes in hadron synchrotrons. Because of the frequent coherent beam instabilities observed in the Large Hadron Collider in 2012, the Landau damping of the beams was doubted. Therefore, ...

Thermal coarsening of individual titanate nanowires and their assemblies: Surface vs. bulk diffusion

László Forró, Luca Rossi, Endre Horvath, Massimo Spina, Sergiy Katrych, Laurent Syavoch Bernard, Lidia Rocoffort de Vinnière

The thermal coarsening of titanate nanowires was investigated from room temperature to 1000 degrees C by AFM, SEM, XRD and Raman spectroscopy. Phase transformation kinetics and the external morphology were studied in two configurations: i) as individual an ...

Hydration development and thermal performance of calcium sulphoaluminate cements containing microencapsulated phase change materials

Diana Londoño Zuluaga

Microencapsulated phase change materials (MPCM) incorporated in buildings walls can reduce indoor temperature fluctuations, conserving energy and enhancing thermal comfort. MPCM were incorporated in calcium sulphoaluminate cement (CSA) at high concentratio ...

Adhesion of a tape loop

Harmeet Singh

In this work, we revisit experimentally and theoretically the mechanics of a tape loop. Using primarily elastic materials (polydimethylsiloxane, PDMS, or polycarbonate, PC) and confocal microscopy, we monitor the shape as well as the applied forces during ...

Building a Casimir metrology platform with a commercial MEMS sensor

Matthias Imboden

The Casimir Effect is a physical manifestation of quantum fluctuations of the electromagnetic vacuum. When two metal plates are placed close together, typically much less than a micron, the long wavelength modes between them are frozen out, giving rise to ...

Inflationary perturbations with Lifshitz scaling

Sergey Sibiryakov

Instead of Lorentz invariance, gravitational degrees of freedom may obey Lifshitz scaling at high energies, as it happens in Horava's proposal for quantum gravity. We study consequences of this proposal for the spectra of primordial perturbations generated ...

Kinetic approach to the Schwinger effect during inflation

Oleksandr Sobol

Using the kinetic approach, we study the impact of the charged particle dynamics due to the Schwinger effect on the electric field evolution during inflation. As a simple model of the electric field generation, we consider the kinetic coupling of the elect ...

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Peter Babkevich, Gregory Scott Tucker, Luc Testa

We report neutron diffraction studies of the magnetic structure in BaTiOCu4(PO4)4 , which is a newly discovered magneticinsulator crystallizing in a tetragonal chiral crystal structure with P4212 space group [1]. The crystal structure ischaracterized by an ...

X-Point Effect on Plasma Blob Dynamics

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Fabio Avino

Plasma blob dynamics on the high-field side in the proximity of a magnetic field null (X point) is investigated in TORPEX. A significant acceleration of the blobs towards the X point is observed. Close to the X point the blobs break apart. The E x B drifts ...

Integrable Systems of Neumann Type

Tudor Ratiu

We construct families of integrable systems that interpolate between -dimensional harmonic oscillators and Neumann systems. This is achieved by studying a family of integrable systems generated by the Casimir functions of the Lie algebra of real skew-symme ...

Correspondence of defect energy levels in hybrid density functional theory and many-body perturbation theory
