When a mixture of propylene glycol and water is deposited on a clean glass slide, it forms a droplet of a given apparent contact angle rather than spreading as one would expect on such a high-energy surface. The droplet is stabilized by a Marangoni flow due to the non-uniformity of the components concentrations between the border and the center of the droplet, itself a result of evaporation. These self-contracting droplets have unusual properties such as absence of pinning and the ability to move under an external humidity gradient. The droplets apparent contact angle is a function of their concentration and the external humidity. Here we study the motion of such droplets sliding down slopes, how they deform when moving at large speeds, and compare the results to normal non-volatile droplets. We precisely control the external humidity and explore the influence of the volume, viscosity, surface tension, and contact angle. We find that the droplets suffer a negligible pinning force so that for small velocities the capillary number ($mathrm{Ca}$) is directly proportional to the Bond number ($mathrm{Bo}$): $mathrm{Ca}=mathrm{Bo} sinalpha$ with $alpha$ the angle of the slope. When the droplets move at larger velocities they deform when Ca exceeds a threshold, and deposit smaller droplets when $mathrm{Ca}$ reaches twice this threshold.

Marangoni self-contracted droplets are formed by a mixture of two liquids, one of larger surface tension and larger evaporation rate than the other. Due to evaporation, the droplets contract to a stable contact angle instead of spreading on a wetting
substrate. This gives them unique properties, including absence of pinning force and ability to move under vapor gradients, self- and externally imposed. We first model the dynamics of attraction in an unconfined geometry and then study the effects of confinement on the attraction range and dynamics, going from minimal confinement (vertical boundary), to medium confinement (2-D vapor diffusion) and eventually strong confinement (1-D). Self-induced motion is observed when single droplets are placed close to a vapor boundary toward which they are attracted, the boundary acting as an image droplet with respect to itself. When two droplets are confined between two horizontal plates, they interact at a longer distance with modified dynamics. Finally, confining the droplet in a tunnel, the range of attraction is greatly enhanced, as the droplet moves all the way up the tunnel when an external humidity gradient is imposed. Self-induced motion is also observed, as the droplet can move by itself towards the center of the tunnel. Confinement greatly increase the range at which droplets interact as well as their lifetime and thus greatly expands the control and design possibilities for applications offered by self-contracted droplets.
The rotation of a quantum liquid induces vortices to carry angular momentum. When the system is composed of multiple components that are distinguishable from each other, vortex cores in one component may be filled by particles of the other component,
and coreless vortices form. Based on evidence from computational methods, here we show that the formation of coreless vortices occurs very similarly for repulsively interacting bosons and fermions, largely independent of the form of the particle interactions. We further address the connection to the Halperin wave functions of non-polarized quantum Hall states.
The zero-temperature phase diagram of binary mixtures of particles interacting via a screened Coulomb pair potential is calculated as a function of composition and charge ratio. The potential energy obtained by a Lekner summation is minimized among a
variety of candidate two-dimensional crystals. A wealth of different stable crystal structures is identified including $A,B,AB_2, A_2B, AB_4$ structures [$A$ $(B)$ particles correspond to large (small) charge.] Their elementary cells consist of triangular, square or rhombic lattices of the $A$ particles with a basis comprising various structures of $A$ and $B$ particles. For small charge asymmetry there are no intermediate crystals besides the pure $A$ and $B$ triangular crystals.
The nonlinear dynamics associated with sliding friction forms a broad interdisciplinary research field that involves complex dynamical processes and patterns covering a broad range of time and length scales. Progress in experimental techniques and co
mputational resources has stimulated the development of more refined and accurate mathematical and numerical models, capable of capturing many of the essentially nonlinear phenomena involved in friction.
Despite the technological importance of supercritical fluids, controversy remains about the details of their microscopic dynamics. In this work, we study four supercritical fluid systems -- water, Si, Te, and Lennard-Jones fluid -- emph{via} classica
l molecular dynamics simulations. A universal two-component behavior is observed in the intermolecular dynamics of these systems, and the changing ratio between the two components leads to a crossover from liquidlike to gaslike dynamics, most rapidly around the Widom line. We find evidence to connect the liquidlike component dominating at lower temperatures with intermolecular bonding, and the component prominent at higher temperatures with free-particle, gaslike dynamics. The ratio between the components can be used to describe important properties of the fluid, such as its self-diffusion coefficient, in the transition region. Our results provide insight into the fundamental mechanism controlling the dynamics of supercritical fluids, and highlight the role of spatiotemporally inhomogenous dynamics even in thermodynamic states where no large-scale fluctuations exist in the fluid.
