A variety of performance demands are being placed on material systems, including
desirable mechanical, thermal, electrical, optical, acoustic and flow properties. The purpose …

The studies of disordered heterogeneous media and galaxy cosmology share a common
goal: analyzing the disordered distribution of particles and/or building blocks at microscales …

Understanding time-dependent diffusion processes in multiphase media is of great
importance in physics, chemistry, materials science, petroleum engineering, and biology …

The purpose of this work is to understand the fundamental connection between structural
correlations and light localization in three-dimensional (3D) open scattering systems of finite …

Time-dependent diffusion processes between phases of heterogeneous materials are
ubiquitous in a variety of contexts in the physical, chemical, and biological sciences …

Periodicity is usually assumed to be the necessary and sufficient condition for the formation
of band gaps, ie, energy bands with a suppressed density of states. Here, we check this …

We show that dry scalar-order active field theories (AFTs) are universally hyperuniform, ie,
density fluctuations are anomalously suppressed in the long-time limit regardless of the …

The study of hyperuniform states of matter is an emerging multidisciplinary field, im**ing
on topics in the physical sciences, mathematics, and biology. The focus of this work is the …

The capacity to devise order metrics to characterize and classify microstructures of
multiphase heterogeneous media across length scales is an outstanding but highly …

Multivalency is prevalent in various biological systems and applications due to the
superselectivity that arises from the cooperativity of multivalent binding. Traditionally, it was …
