The precision of any measurement is limited by quantum mechanics. Yet, in practice, hardly any measurement reaches its quantum limits. This is because dephasing typically influences the measurement device, thus rendering sensitivity below its physical limits. A new class of quantum sensors based on spin defects in materials like diamond, however...

We live in the age of heroic programming for scientific applications on Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). Typically a scientist chooses an application to accelerate and a target platform, and through great effort maps their application to that platform. If they are a true hero, they achieve two or three orders of magnitude speedup for that appli...

Pinning and depinning of a droplet on a surface is familiar yet deceptively complex for it depends on the interaction of the contact line with the microscopic features of the solid substrate. This physical picture is further compounded when wind of the Reynolds number greater than 100 blows over pinned drops, leading to the boundary layer separa...

I will discuss the existence and properties of small-scaledependent shock waves to nonlinear hyperbolic systems, with anemphasis on the theory of nonclassical entropy solutionsinvolving undercompressive shocks. Regularization-sensitivestructures often arise in continuum physics, especially inflows of complex fluids or solids. The so-called kinet...
