• Curvature Corrections Remove the Inconsistencies of Binary Classical Nucleation Theory 

      Aasen, Ailo; Reguera, David; Wilhelmsen, Øivind (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The study of nucleation in fluid mixtures exposes challenges beyond those of pure systems. A striking example is homogeneous condensation in highly surface-active water-alcohol mixtures, where classical nucleation theory ...
    • Distance-dependent sign reversal in the Casimir-Lifshitz torque 

      Thiyam, Priyadarshini; Parashar, Prachi; Shajesh, Kuloth Vayalombron; Malyi, Oleksandr; Boström, Mathias; Milton, Kimball A.; Brevik, Iver Håkon; Persson, Clas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      The Casimir-Lifshitz torque between two biaxially polarizable anisotropic planar slabs is shown to exhibit a nontrivial sign reversal in its rotational sense. The critical distance $a_c$ between the slabs that marks this ...
