We consider a nonlocal perturbation of an isoperimetric variational problem. The problem may be viewed as a mathematical paradigm for the ubiquitous phenomenon of energy-driven pattern formation associated with competing short and long-range interactions. In particular, it arises as a Γ-limit of a model for microphase…

Calcium zirconate (CaZrO 3 ) powder was synthesized using calcium chloride (CaCl 2 ), sodium carbonate (Na 2 CO 3 ), and zirconia (ZrO 2 ) powders. On heating, CaCl 2 reacted with Na 2 CO 3 to form NaCl and CaCO 3 . NaCl–Na 2 CO 3 molten salts provided a liquid reaction medium for the formation of CaZrO 3 from in situ…
