The spontaneous spreading of liquid droplets is studied by molecular modeling simulations. By considering very large systems, we are able to study the influence of the solid−liquid interactions on the overall wetting dynamics. It is shown how microscopic parameters, such as the mobility of the molecules near the solid…

The visible luminescence of Pr 3+ -doped lead germanate glass of composition (in mol%) 60PbO-40GeO 2 has been investigated for two Pr 3+ concentrations at different temperatures by using steady-state and time-resolved laser spectroscopy. Concentration quenching of the 1 D 2 emission is observed for Pr 3+ concentration…

The Projected Dynamics method was originally developed to study metastable decay in ferromagnetic discrete spin models. Here, we apply it to a classical, continuous Heisenberg model with anisotropic ferromagnetic interactions, which evolves under a Monte Carlo dynamic. The anisotropy is sufficiently large to allow com…
