  • Maurer, Thomas; Nicolas, Rana; Lévêque, Gaëtan; Subramanian, Palaniappan; Proust, Julien; Béal, Jérémie; Schuermans, Silvère; Vilcot, Jean Pierre; Herro, Ziad G.; Kazan, Michel; Plain, Jérôme; Boukherroub, Rabah; Akjouj, Abdellatif; Djafari-Rouhani, Bahram; Adam, Pierre Michel; Szunerits, Sabine (Springer New York LLC, 2014)
    A particular interesting plasmonic system is that of metallic nanostructures interacting with metal films. As the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) behavior of gold nanostructures (Au NPs) on the top of a gold ...
  • Colombi, Stéphane T.; Touma, Jihad R. (Oxford University Press, 2014)
    We revisit in one dimension the waterbag method to solve numerically Vlasov-Poisson equations. In this approach, the phase-space distribution function f (x, v) is initially sampled by an ensemble of patches, the waterbags, ...
  • Klushin, Leonid I.; Skvortsov, Aleksander M.; Polotsky, Alexey A.; Hsu, Hsiaoping; Binder, Kurt (American Institute of Physics Inc., 2014)
    The coil-bridge transition in a self-avoiding lattice chain with one end fixed at height H above the attractive planar surface is investigated by theory and Monte Carlo simulation. We focus on the details of the first-order ...
  • Antar, Ghassan Y.; Goniche, Marc; Ekedahl, Annika C.; Colas, Laurent (Institute of Physics Publishing, 2014)
    It was reported on the ASDEX-Upgrade tokamak and recently confirmed on the Tore Supra tokamak (Antar 2010 et al Phys. Rev. Lett. 105 165001, Antar 2012 Nucl. Fusion 52 103005) that ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) ...
  • Touma, Jihad R.; Tremaine, Scott D. (Institute of Physics Publishing, 2014)
    We describe the dynamics and thermodynamics of collisionless particle discs orbiting a massive central body, in the case where the disc mass is small compared to the central mass, the self-gravity of the disc dominates the ...
  • Chamseddine, Ali H.; Mukhanov, Viatcheslav F.; Vikman, Alexander (Institute of Physics Publishing, 2014)
    We consider minimal extensions of the recently proposed Mimetic Dark Matter and show that by introducing a potential for the mimetic non-dynamical scalar field we can mimic nearly any gravitational properties of the normal ...
  • Klushin, Leonid I.; Skvortsov, Aleksander M.; Polotsky, Alexey A.; Qi, Shuanhu; Schmid, Friederike (American Physical Society, 2014)
    We propose a design for polymer-based sensors and switches with sharp switching transition and fast response time. The switching mechanism involves a radical change in the conformations of adsorption-active minority chains ...
  • Zahlan, Antoine B. (Routledge, 2014)
    Some of the challenges facing Arab countries could be solved if their economies were industrialized. They have made much progress in some fields, but have failed so far to industrialize. While this is obviously a complicated ...
  • Chamseddine, Ali H.; Connes, Alain; Mukhanov, Viatcheslav F. (Springer Verlag, 2014)
    Abstract: Motivated by the construction of spectral manifolds in noncommutative geometry, we introduce a higher degree Heisenberg commutation relation involving the Dirac operator and the Feynman slash of scalar fields. ...
  • Milchev, Andrey I.; Müller, Marcus; Klushin, Leonid I. (American Chemical Society, 2014)
    Using molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations as well as analytical considerations, we study the arm-retraction dynamics of a three-arm star polymer in a narrow nanotube as a function of arm length, N, and tube ...
  • Awad, Ramadan; Abou-Aly, Aly Ibrahim; Mohammed, N. H.; Isber, Samih; Motaweh, Hussien A.; El-Said Bakeer, Douaa (Elsevier Ltd, 2014)
    The effect of nanosized ZnFe2O4, prepared by Co-precipitation method, on GdBa2Cu3O7- δ superconductor was studied. Therefore, superconducting samples of type (ZnFe2O4)xGdBa 2Cu3O7-δ, 0.0≤x≤0.1 wt.%, were prepared by the ...

    A generalized lock-in detection method is proposed to extract amplitude and phase from optical interferometers when an arbitrary periodic phase or frequency modulation is used. The actual modulation function is used to ...
  • Kazan, Michel; Masri, Pierre M. (Elsevier B.V., 2014)
    This review provides theoretical understanding of the role of the surface and interface in the thermal conductivity of solids. An attempt is made to collect the various methods used in the analysis of experiments. The ...
  • Ishii, Yohei; Madi, Charbel S.; Aziz, Michael J.; Chason, Eric H. (Cambridge University Press, 2014)
    Measurements of stress evolution during low-energy argon ion bombardment of Si have been made using a real-time wafer curvature technique. During irradiation, the stress reaches a steady-state compressive value that depends ...
  • Kazan, Michel; Volz, Sébastian Gunter (American Institute of Physics Inc., 2014)
    This paper provides a general model for the lattice thermal conductivity in granular crystals. The key development presented in this model is that the contribution of surface phonons to the thermal conductivity and the ...
  • Chamseddine, Ali H.; Connes, Alain; van Suijlekom, Walter Daniël (Springer Verlag, 2015)
    Abstract: We analyze the running at one-loop of the gauge couplings in the spectral Pati-Salam model that was derived in the framework of noncommutative geometry. There are a few different scenarios for the scalar particle ...

    The present study compares the near-field and far-field sensitivities of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) sensors. To put into evidence the difference between far-field and near-field sensors, optical extinction ...

    Using a combination of analytical theory, Monte Carlo simulations, and three-dimensional self-consistent field calculations, we study the equilibrium properties and the switching behavior of adsorption-active polymer chains ...
  • Malaeb, O. (American Physical Society, 2015)
    The Hamiltonian formulation of mimetic gravity is formulated. Although there are two more equations than those of general relativity, these are proved to be the constraint equation and the conservation of the energy-momentum ...
