Statistical Mechanics of Assemblies of Coupled Oscillators
G. W. Ford,Mark Kac,P. Mazur +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a system of coupled harmonic oscillators can be made a model of a heat bath and that a particle coupled harmonically to the bath and by an arbitrary force to a fixed center will exhibit Brownian motion.

Tunneling Conductance of Asymmetrical Barriers
TL;DR: In this paper, the voltage-dependent tunneling conductance of trapezoidal potential barriers has been calculated using two extreme models of WKB approximation and perfectly sharp boundaries between the metal electrode and the insulator.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accurate determination of crystal structures based on averaged local bond order parameters
TL;DR: In this paper, the complex bond order vectors are averaged over the first neighbor shell of a given particle and the particle itself, which improves the accuracy with which different crystal structures can be distinguished.

Physics of strongly magnetized neutron stars
Alice K. Harding,Dong Lai +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the exotic physics of high magnetic field regime was discussed, where a new array of processes becomes possible and even dominant and where familiar processes acquire unusual properties, including free particles, atoms, molecules, plasma and condensed matter in strong magnetic fields, photon propagation in magnetized plasmas, freeparticle radiative processes, the physics of neutron star interiors and field evolution and decay mechanisms.
