We analyze the acoustic collective excitations in two- and three-dimensional binary Yukawa systems, consisting of two components with different masses. A theoretical analysis reveals a profound difference between the weakly and strongly correlated limits: at weak coupling the two components interact via the mean field only and the oscillation frequency is governed by the light component. In the strongly correlated limit the mode frequency is governed by the combined mass, where the heavy component dominates. Computer simulations in the full coupling range extend and confirm the theoretical results.

The dynamical behavior of binary mixtures consisting of highly charged colloidal particles is studied by means of Brownian dynamics simulations. We investigate differently sized, but identically charged particles with nearly identical interactions between all species in highly dilute suspensions. Different short-time self-diffusion coefficients induce, mediated by electrostatic interactions, a coupling of both self and collective dynamics of differently sized particles: the long-time self-diffusion coefficients of a larger species are increased by the presence of a more mobile, smaller species and .

Previous works have argued that future gravitational-wave detectors will be able to probe the properties of astrophysical environments where binaries coalesce, including accretion disks, but also dark matter structures. Most analyses have resorted to a Newtonian modeling of the environmental effects, which are not suited to study extreme-mass-ratio inspirals immersed in structures of ultralight bosons. In this Letter, we use relativistic perturbation theory to consistently study these systems in spherical symmetry.

In experiments and simulations of passive as well as active matter the most commonly studied kind of parameter polydispersity is that of varying particles size. This paper investigates by simulations the effects of introducing polydispersity in other parameters for two-dimensional active Brownian particles with Yukawa pair interactions. Polydispersity is studied separately in the translational and rotational diffusion coefficients, as well as in the swim velocity.

This paper presents the molecular dynamics simulation of 1 mol kg-1 LiPF6 in a binary solvent of ethylene carbonate (EC) and dimethylcarbonate, which is a representative electrolyte solution for lithium-ion batteries. The simulation successfully reproduced the diffusion coefficient, ionic conductivity, and shear viscosity as functions of EC content at 300 K, which had been experimentally determined in our previous study. The Yukawa potential was adopted to model intercharge interactions to reduce computational costs, which consequently allowed us to precisely calculate the conductivity and viscosity by directly integrating time-correlation functions without explicitly modeling the molecular polarization.

We perform a general-relativistic neutrino-radiation magnetohydrodynamic simulation of a one second-long binary neutron star merger on the Japanese supercomputer Fugaku using about 85 million CPU hours with 20 736 CPUs. We consider an asymmetric binary neutron star merger with masses of 1.2M_{⊙} and 1.
