Evolved interactions stabilize many coexisting phases in multicomponent liquids

Kavli Affiliate: Liedewij Laan | First 5 Authors: David Zwicker, Liedewij Laan, , , | Summary: Phase separation has emerged as an essential concept for the spatial organization inside biological cells. However, despite the clear relevance to virtually all physiological functions, we understand surprisingly little about what phases form in a system of many interacting […]

Primordial Black Hole Formation in Non-Minimal Curvaton Scenario

Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Shi Pi, Misao Sasaki, , , | Summary: In the curvaton scenario, the curvature perturbation is generated after inflation at the curvaton decay, which may have a prominent non-Gaussian effect. For a model with a non-trivial kinetic term, an enhanced curvature perturbation on a small scale can […]
