I present my personal view on non-extensive thermodynamics, where generalized canonical statistical factors replace the exponential function. By generalizing the familiar factor, exp(−E/T), in counting the relative occurrence frequency of states with energy E at temperature T one encounters primarily mathematical challenges. However, it is of equal importance to built up the formalism on...

Studies of nuclei far from stability are at the forefront of modern nuclear science. A wealth of new data from radioactive-beam facilities, the exciting phenomenology of nuclear astrophysics, and recent developments in related fields, have stimulated important advances in theoretical nuclear structure physics, evolving from macroscopic and microscopic models of stable nuclei towards regions of...

Nanotubes are a special class of materials, extending in one dimension and containing a narrow cavity and a large, curved surface. Both can accomodate individual molecules: either through encapsulation (nano-containers) or adsorption (nano-scaffolds). The properties of these hybrid systems are unique on their own, but they are also subject to special chemical reactions because of their...

The density distribution and the size of nuclei were studied in details for stable nuclei and "common rules" were established. Those are;
• A nucleus has a spherical or near spherical shape.
• The radius of a nucleus is proportional to A1/3, where A is the mass number of the nucleus.
• The surface of a nucleus is diffused and this diffuseness is almost the same for all...

Polycrystalline materials (e.g., technical alloys, minerals, drugs, sugar, etc.) play an essential role in our everyday life. Their properties are determined by the size-, shape-, and composition distributions of the crystallites they are built of. Knowledge based designing of their properties requires a mathematical model of polycrystalline solidification. In the past years the phase-field...

In cosmology, it is assumed that matter, of which the whole universe and we are made, was created from a plasma of elementary particles in the first microseconds after the Big Bang. This Quark-Gluon Plasma is characterised by an equilibrated system of free quarks and gluons that are normally confined inside protons and neutrons constituting atomic nuclei. In this contribution, I will gave a...

Matter around us is made of protons and neutrons giving the mass to atomic nuclei and interacting by Strong interaction, one of the four “fundamental forces”. The theory of Strong interaction challenges our standard notion of vacuum and leads to unusual features like a force increasing with particle distance, at variance with the other known “forces”. However, at temperatures above two...

I will present a new mechanism, called “quantum self-organization”, to enhance the collective modes in quantum many-body systems. The collective modes appear often with beautiful patterns, leading to the above title.

Large heavy ion accelerators appear to be efficient tools for investigations into the physics of high-brightness beams generation for plasma and high energy density in matter physics research.
This presentation outlines unprecedented fore-front research in extreme state of matter physics and applied science as well as the results of ongoing experimental activities on heavy ion accelerator...

One of the fundamental questions in the field of subatomic physics is what happens to matter when densities and temperatures are reached which prevailed in the first microseconds after the Big Bang. At these temperatures and densities, matter is predicted to be in a novel state where new degrees of freedom propagate over large distances. This novel deconfined state of matter is called a quark...

SiAlONs are ceramic materials with a range of technically important applications, from cutting tools to wear parts and the properties of SiAlONs can be tailored for specific applications. Wear performance of the cutting tools are governed by material properties which are affected by microstructure. Microstructure of SiAlONs can be controlled by types and amount of liquid phase sintering...
