Arguably, almost all truly intriguing systems are ones that are far away from equilibrium -- such as stars, planetary atmospheres, and even digital circuits. But, until now, systems far from thermal ...

What is temperature? A direct understanding of temperature is the specific number shown in thermometers. A much more scientific definition of temperature is a statistical concept in equilibrium ...

A scientist gives an answer to a long-standing question in theoretical glass physics: what does it mean to be an order parameter for an inherently out-of-equilibrium system? Starting from first ...

The Japanese collaborative team of Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT) and Osaka University presents a novel method for tuning hydrodynamic interfacial instability through a ...
