Magnetocaloric effect: From materials research to refrigeration devices
(Elsevier, 2018)
The magnetocaloric effect and its most straightforward application, magnetic refrigeration, are topics of current interest due to the potential improvement of energy efficiency of cooling and temperature control systems, ...

Curvature corrections to the nonlocal interfacial model for short-ranged forces
(American Physical Society Sites, 2018-06-25)
In this paper we revisit the derivation of a nonlocal interfacial Hamiltonian model for systems with short-ranged intermolecular forces. Starting from a microscopic Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson Hamiltonian with a double parabola ...

Unraveling the Reaction Mechanisms Leading to Partial Fusion of Weakly Bound Nuclei
(American Physical Society, 2019)
Collisions between complex nuclei may give rise to their total or partial fusion. The latter case is found experimentally to gain importance when one of the colliding nuclei is weakly bound. It has been commonly assumed ...

Digital-analog quantum algorithm for the quantum Fourier transform
(American Physical Society, 2020-01-06)
Quantum computers will allow calculations beyond existing classical computers. However, current technology is still too noisy and imperfect to construct a universal digital quantum computer with quantum error correction. ...

Performance improvement in olive stone's combustion from a previous carbonization transformation
(Elsevier, 2018-09)
Under the framework of circular economy, agricultural wastes are an interesting carbon-based feedstock for thermal energy and power generation. Their use could extend the availability of biomass-based fuel and, at the same ...

Binding-energy independence of reduced spectroscopic strengths derived from (p, 2p) and (p, pn) reactions with nitrogen and oxygen isotopes
(ELSEVIER, 2018-08-30)
A campaign of intermediate energy (300–450 MeV/u) proton-induced nucleon knockout measurements in inverse kinematics has been recently undertaken at the R 3 B/LAND setup at GSI. We present a systematic theoretical ...

When the Hotter Cools More Quickly: Mpemba Effect in Granular Fluids
(American Physical Society, 2017)
Under certain conditions, two samples of fluid at different initial temperatures present a counterintuitive behavior known as the Mpemba effect: it is the hotter system that cools sooner. Here, we show that the Mpemba ...

Microstructure, interfaces and properties of 3YTZP ceramic composites with 10 and 20 vol% different graphene-based nanostructures as fillers
(Elsevier, 2019)
The graphene family comprises not only single layer graphene but also graphene-based nanomaterials (GBN), with remarkably different number of layers, lateral dimension and price. In this work, two of these GBN, namely ...

Elusive super-hard B6C accessible through the laser-floating zone method
(Nature, 2019)
Boron carbide is among the most promising ceramic materials nowadays: their mechanical properties are outstanding, and they open potential critical applications in near future. Since sinterability is the most critical ...

Electrical conduction mechanisms in graphene nanoplatelet/yttria tetragonal zirconia composites
(Elsevier, 2018-08)
Yttria tetragonal zirconia polycrystalline (3YTZP) ceramic composites with 5, 10 and 20 vol% graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) were prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS) and their electrical conductivity as a function ...
