We present a direct measurement of the quenching of nonlocal heat transport in a laser-produced plasma by applying large external magnetic fields (>10 T). The temporally resolved Thomson-scattering measurements of the electron temperature profile show that the heat front propagation transverse to a high-power laser beam is slowed resulting in extremely strong local heating. We find agreement with hydrodynamic modeling when including a magnetic field model that self-consistently evolves the fields in the plasma.

This article presents the unique research results of the comprehensive analysis of the porous structure of activated carbons obtained from biomass waste materials from the wood industry during activation in an air atmosphere. The porous structure was analysed on the basis of nitrogen and argon adsorption isotherms via complementary multi-method analysis, i.e.

We investigate the influence of quenched disorder on the steady states of driven systems of the elastic interface with nonlocal hydrodynamic interactions. The generalized elastic model (GEM), which has been used to characterize numerous physical systems such as polymers, membranes, single-file systems, rough interfaces, and fluctuating surfaces, is a standard approach to studying the dynamics of elastic interfaces with nonlocal hydrodynamic interactions. The criticality and phase transition of the quenched generalized elastic model are investigated numerically and the results are presented in a phase diagram spanned by two tuning parameters.

We investigate the information-theoretical limits of inference tasks in epidemic spreading on graphs in the thermodynamic limit. The typical inference tasks consist in computing observables of the posterior distribution of the epidemic model given observations taken from a ground-truth (sometimes called planted) random trajectory. We can identify two main sources of quenched disorder: the graph ensemble and the planted trajectory.

Optical nanoantennas possess broad applications in the fields of photodetection, environmental science, biosensing and nonlinear optics, owing to their remarkable ability to enhance and confine the optical field at the nanoscale. In this article, we present a theoretical investigation of surface-enhanced photoluminescence spectroscopy for single molecules confined within novel Au bowtie nanoantenna, covering a wavelength range from the visible to near-infrared spectral regions. We employ the finite element method to quantitatively study the optical enhancement properties of the plasmonic field, quantum yield, Raman scattering and fluorescence.

Metallic surfaces with unidirectional anisotropy are often used to guide the self-assembly of organic molecules along a particular direction. Such supports thus offer an avenue for the fabrication of hybrid organic-metal interfaces with tailored morphology and precise elemental composition. Nonetheless, such control often comes at the expense of detrimental interfacial interactions that might quench the pristine properties of molecules.
