Recently it has been proposed that the zombie vortex instability (ZVI) could precipitate hydrodynamical activity and angular momentum transport in unmagnetized regions of protoplanetary discs, also known as ‘dead zones’. ...

Audio/visual recognition and retrieval applications have recently garnered significant attention within Internet-of-Things (IoT) oriented services, given that video cameras and audio processing chipsets are now ubiquitous ...

We study charge diffusion in holographic scaling theories with a particle-hole symmetry. We show that these theories have a universal regime in which the diffusion constant is given by D$_{c}$ = Cv$^{2}$$_{B}$/(2πT), where ...

We propose a matrix quantum mechanics for a class of non-Abelian quantum Hall states. The model describes electrons which carry an internal SU($p$) spin. The ground states of the matrix model include spin-singlet generalizations ...

We study a U($\small N$) gauged matrix quantum mechanics which, in the large $\small N$ limit, is closely related to the chiral WZW conformal field theory. This manifests itself in two ways. First, we construct the left-moving ...

Shear thickening, an increase of viscosity with shear rate, is a ubiquitous phenomenon in suspended materials that has implications for broad technological applications. Controlling this thickening behavior remains a major ...

Texture perception of foods is a common yet remarkably unstudied biophysical problem. Motivated by recent experiments reporting the presence of corpuscular endings in tongue filiform papillae, we develop in this work a ...

We find necessary and sufficient conditions for a local geodesic flow of an affine connection on a surface to admit a linear first integral. The conditions are expressed in terms of two scalar invariants of differential ...

The magnetic Rayleigh–Taylor instability has been shown to play a key role in many astrophysical systems. The equation for the growth rate of this instability in the incompressible limit, and the most-unstable mode that ...

Swimming cells and microorganisms are a critical component of many biological processes. In order to better interpret experimental studies of low Reynolds number swimming, we combine experimental and numerical methods to ...

The intensity of the O IV 2s$^{2}$ 2p $^{2}$P-2s2p$^{2}$ $^{4}$P and S IV 3 s$^{2}$ 3p $^{2}$P- 3s 3p$^{2}$ $^{4}$ P intercombination lines around 1400 Å observed with the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) provide ...

This paper studies the classification of high-dimensional Gaussian signals from low-dimensional noisy, linear measurements. In particular, it provides upper bounds (sufficient conditions) on the number of measurements ...

We consider numerically the transition to turbulence and associated mixing in stratified shear flows with initial velocity distribution $\bar U$(z, 0)e$_{x}$ = U$_{0}$e$_{x}$ tanh(z/d) and initial density distribution $\bar ...

In the cosmological scenario in $\small \textit{f(T)}$ gravity, we find analytical solutions for an isotropic and homogeneous universe containing a dust fluid and radiation and for an empty anisotropic Bianchi I universe. ...

An analytic solution is obtained for the sound generated by gust-aerofoil interaction for aerofoils with thickness, camber, and angle of attack. The model is based on the linearisation of the Euler equations about a steady ...

Hydrodynamic interactions with confining boundaries often lead to drastic changes in the diffusive behaviour of microparticles in suspensions. For axially symmetric particles, earlier numerical studies have suggested a ...

Pairs of extrasolar giant planets in a mean motion commensurability are common with 2:1 resonance occurring most frequently. Disc–planet interaction provides a mechanism for their origin. However, the time-scale on which ...

Hydrodynamic interactions with confining boundaries often lead to drastic changes in the diffusive behaviour of microparticles in suspensions. For axially symmetric particles, earlier numerical studies have suggested a ...

A series of sedimentation experiments and numerical simulations have been conducted to understand the factors that control the final angle of a static sediment layer formed by quasi-monodisperse particles settling in an ...

It is a classical theorem of Liouville that Hamiltonian systems preserve volume in phase space. Any symplectic Runge–Kutta method will respect this property for such systems, but it has been shown by Iserles, Quispel and ...
