To this end, we consider the translational order metric \(\tau_{T}\), defined as the squared \(L^2\) norm of the total correlation function \(h(\textbf{r})\), and introduce its … Continue Reading “Quantifying Translational and Bond-Orientational Order Metrics in Hyperuniform and Nonhyperuniform Many-Particle Systems” is Published in Physical Review E

Read the full paper: here Link to the journal: here Complete phononic band gaps–frequency intervals that exclude elastic waves of every polarization–have so far been realized only in periodic phononic crystals, whose band structures are direction-dependent and defect-sensitive. Disordered stealthy hyperuniform composites have produced complete and isotropic photonic band gaps, but analogous elastic designs have … Continue Reading “Large complete and isotropic phononic band gaps in ultradense stealthy hyperuniform composites” is Published in PNAS

Read the full paper: here Link to the journal: here Disordered stealthy hyperuniform materials exhibit the statistical isotropy of a liquid combined with some of the structural properties of a crystal—including homogeneity, suppressed density fluctuations at large length scales, bounded holes, and a structure factor \(S(k)\) that vanishes for a finite range of wave vectors, … Continue Reading “Structural and physical properties of gyromorphs and disordered stealthy hyperuniform media” Published in Physical Review B
