Bilayer graphene is an intriguing material in that its electronic structure can be altered by changing the stacking order or the relative twist angle, yielding a new class of low-dimensional carbon system. Twisted bilayer graphene can be obtained by (i) thermal decomposition of SiC; (ii) chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on metal catalysts; (iii) folding graphene; or (iv) stacking graphene layers...

We study the Drell-Yan production cross section and structure functions in proton (deuteron)-nucleus collisions using the Color Glass Condensate formalism. The nucleus is treated in the Color Glass Condensate framework which includes both higher twist effects due to the inclusion of multiple scatterings and leading twist pQCD shadowing due to the small x resummation, while the proton (or deuter...

The present study investigates experimentally and numerically the impact of composite materials on hydro-elastic performances a hydrofoil experiencing Fluid–Structure Interactions, focus bend–twist coupling phenomenon. Four flexible hydrofoils piercing free surface, with identical geometry extruded plan-form, constant NACA0015 section, are tested in cantilevered configuration hydrodynamic flume...

A bstract We consider the eikonal phase associated with gravitational scattering of a highly energetic light particle off very heavy object in AdS spacetime. simple expression for this follows from WKB approximation to amplitude and has been computed all orders ratio impact parameter Schwarzschild radius particle. The is related deflection angle by usual stationary relation. flat space limit ob...

We describe how the stability properties of DNA minicircles can be directly read from plots of various biologically intuitive quantities along families of equilibrium configurations. Our conclusions follow from extensions of the mathematical theory of distinguished bifurcation diagrams that are applied within the specific context of an elastic rod model of minicircles. Families of equilibria ar...

In this article, we investigate the contribution of the high twist Feynman diagrams to the large-pT single pseudoscalar and vector mesons inclusive production cross section in two-photon collisions and we present the general formulae for the high and leading twist differential cross sections. The pion wave function where two non-trivial Gegenbauer coefficients a2 and a4 have been extracted from...

The Mohr circle, most commonly met in the analysis of mechanical stress, is used to depict magnetotelluric impedance information, taking the real and quadrature parts of magnetotelluric tensors separately. The magnetotelluric concepts of two-dimensionality, three-dimensionality, skew and anisotropy are then all given quantitative expression on a diagram, as are various magnetotelluric invariant...

The quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) effect is sometimes observed in twisted bilayer graphene (tBG) when it nearly aligned with an encapsulating hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) layer. We propose that the appearance or absence of QAH individual devices could be related to commensurability between graphene/graphene and graphene/hBN moir\'e patterns. identify a series points $(\theta_{\rm GG},\theta_{\r...
