Conditions for the stability under linear perturbations around the homogeneous cooling state are studied for dilute granular gases of inelastic and rough hard disks or spheres with constant coefficients of normal ($alpha$) and tangential ($beta$) restitution. After a formally exact linear stability analysis of the Navier--Stokes--Fourier hydrodynamic equations in terms of the translational ($d_t$) and rotational ($d_r$) degrees of freedom, the transport coefficients derived in the companion paper [A. Megias and A. Santos, Hydrodynamics of granular gases of inelastic and rough hard disks or spheres. I. Transport coefficients, Phys. Rev. E 104, 034901 (2021)] are employed. Known results for hard spheres [V. Garzo, A. Santos, and G. M. Kremer, Phys. Rev. E 97, 052901 (2018)] are recovered by setting $d_t=d_r=3$, while novel results for hard disks ($d_t=2$, $d_r=1$) are obtained. In the latter case, a high-inelasticity peculiar region in the $(alpha,beta)$ parameter space is found, inside which the critical wave number associated with the longitudinal modes diverges. Comparison with event-driven molecular dynamics simulations for dilute systems of hard disks at $alpha=0.2$ shows that this theoretical region of absolute instability may be an artifact of the extrapolation to high inelasticity of the approximations made in the derivation of the transport coefficients, although it signals a shrinking of the conditions for stability. In the case of moderate inelasticity ($alpha=0.7$), however, a good agreement between the theoretical predictions and the simulation results is found.
The transport coefficients for dilute granular gases of inelastic and rough hard disks or spheres with constant coefficients of normal ($alpha$) and tangential ($beta$) restitution are obtained in a unified framework as functions of the number of tra
We report the emergence of a giant Mpemba effect in the uniformly heated gas of inelastic rough hard spheres: The initially hotter sample may cool sooner than the colder one, even when the initial temperatures differ by more than one order of magnitu
The expansion of the velocity distribution function for the homogeneous cooling state (HCS) in a Sonine polynomial series around a Maxwellian is shown to be divergent, though Borel resummable. A convergent expansion for the HCS has been devised and e
The smallest maximum kissing-number Voronoi polyhedron of 3d spheres is the icosahedron and the tetrahedron is the smallest volume that can show up in Delaunay tessalation. No periodic lattice is consistent with either and hence these dense packings
We report on a large scale computer simulation study of crystal nucleation in hard spheres. Through a combined analysis of real and reciprocal space data, a picture of a two-step crystallization process is supported: First dense, amorphous clusters f
