Convection of water vapour in snowpacks

Michael Lehning, Varun Sharma, Mahdi Jafari

This paper studies numerically the convection of water vapour in snowpacks using an Eulerian-Eulerian two-phase approach. The convective water vapour transport in snow and its effects on snow density are often invoked to explain observed density profiles, ...

Impact of quantum-chemical metrics on the machine learning prediction of electron density

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Alberto Fabrizio, Ksenia Briling

Machine learning (ML) algorithms have undergone an explosive development impacting every aspect of computational chemistry. To obtain reliable predictions, one needs to maintain a proper balance between the black-box nature of ML frameworks and the physics ...

Continuously Fed Density Currents Over Porous Bed

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sara Venuleo

Gravity currents impact significantly the environment and human's life. Understanding their internal structure and their dynamics is fundamental for modelling purposes. In this study we observe experimentally how bed porosity affects the dynamics of densit ...

Dissecting cold gas in a high-redshift galaxy using a lensed background quasar

Frédéric Courbin

We present a study of cold gas absorption from a damped Lyman-alpha absorber (DLA) at redshift z(abs) = 1.946 toward two lensed images of the quasar J144254.78+405535.5 at redshift z(QSO) = 2.590. The physical separation of the two lines of sight at the ab ...

From Hydrophobic to Hydrophilic: The Structure and Density of the Hexadecane Droplet/Alkanol/Water Interface

Sylvie Roke, Yixing Chen

The molecular structure of the hexadecane droplet/alkanol/water interface has been investigated using vibrational sum frequency scattering and second harmonic scattering. This combination of methods allows us to investigate the interfacial alkyl chain conf ...

Impact of internal crystalline boundaries on lattice thermal conductivity: Importance of boundary structure and spacing

Jean-François Molinari, Guillaume Anciaux, Ramin Aghababaei

The low thermal conductivity of nano-crystalline materials is commonly explained via diffusive scattering of phonons by internal boundaries. In this study, we have quantitatively studied phononcrystalline boundaries scattering and its effect on the overall ...

Impact of He and Cr on defect accumulation in ion-irradiated ultrahigh-purity Fe(Cr) alloys

Robin Schäublin, Amuthan Ramar, Anna Prokhodtseva

The effect of He on the primary damage induced by irradiation in ultrahigh-purity (UHP) Fe and Fe(Cr) alloys was investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Materials were irradiated at room temperature in situ by TEM in a microscope coupled to ...

Terephthalic acid adsorption on Si(111)-(root 3x root 3)-Bi surfaces: Effect of Bi coverage

Klaus Kern

The influence of the density of metallic atoms on the formation of supramolecular structures onto Si surface alloys is investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy. Terephthalic acid (TPA) adsorption experiments are performed on the Si(111) alpha- and bet ...

Determination of nanoparticle size distribution together with density or molecular weight by 2D analytical ultracentrifugation

Francesco Stellacci, Randy Patrick Carney

Nanoparticles are finding many research and industrial applications, yet their characterization remains a challenge. Their cores are often polydisperse and coated by a stabilizing shell that varies in size and composition. No single technique can character ...

Double-diffusive convection in Lake Kivu

Alfred Johny Wüest

Double-diffusive staircases with a total of 230-350 mixed layers and sharp interfaces were observed in nine microstructure temperature profiles measured during February 2004 in Lake Kivu. The presence of these staircases at depths. 120 m indicates that dia ...

Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov state in the one-dimensional attractive Hubbard model and its fingerprint in spatial noise correlations

We explore the pairing properties of the one-dimensional attractive Hubbard model in the presence of finite spin polarization. The correlation exponents for the most important fluctuations are determined as a function of the density and the polarization. W ...
