A novel coarsening mechanism of droplets in immiscible fluid mixtures

R Shimizu, H Tanaka - Nature communications, 2015‏ - nature.com
In our daily lives, after shaking a salad dressing, we see the coarsening of oil droplets
suspended in vinegar. Such a demixing process is observed everywhere in nature and also …

Curvature-driven growth and interfacial noise in the voter model with self-induced zealots

LCF Latoski, WG Dantas, JJ Arenzon - Physical Review E, 2022‏ - APS
We introduce a variant of the voter model in which agents may have different degrees of
confidence in their opinions. Those with low confidence are normal voters whose state can …

Diffusive domain coarsening: Early time dynamics and finite-size effects

S Majumder, SK Das - Physical Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft …, 2011‏ - APS
We study the diffusive dynamics of phase separation in a symmetric binary (A+ B) mixture
with a 50: 50 composition of A and B particles, following a quench below the demixing …

Universality in the time correlations of the long-range 1d Ising model

F Corberi, E Lippiello, P Politi - Journal of Statistical Mechanics …, 2019‏ - iopscience.iop.org
The equilibrium and nonequilibrium properties of ferromagnetic systems may be affected by
the long-range nature of the coupling interaction. Here we study the phase separation …
