Journal ArticleDOI
External-Field-Induced Tricritical Point in a Fluctuation-Driven Nematic–Smectic-ATransition
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of an external field on the nematic-smectic-a transition close to the critical point was studied. But the effect on the qualitative behavior of the transition was not considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temperature dependence of the capacitance of a ferroelectric material
TL;DR: In this paper, the temperature variation of the capacitance of a ferroelectric ceramic derived from barium titanate, the Ba(Ti0.9Sn0.1)O3 solid solution, was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inferring the spatiotemporal DNA replication program from noisy data.
A. Baker,John Bechhoefer +1 more
TL;DR: A nonparametric method of inference that is based on Gaussian process regression is introduced that recovers, with high precision, simulated replication schemes from noisy data that are typical of current experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pattern Formation During the Growth of Liquid Crystal Phases
TL;DR: The name "liquid crystals" is actually a misnomer for what are more properly termed "mesophases, that is, phases having symmetries intermediate between ordinary solids and liquids.
Book
Control Theory for Physicists
TL;DR: Control theory, an interdisciplinary concept dealing with the behaviour of dynamical systems, is an important but often overlooked aspect of physics as discussed by the authors, which is the first broad and complete treatment of the topic tailored for physicists, one which goes from the basics right through to the most recent advances.
