The Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) grant entitled “Transport in Disordered Hyperuniform Systems and Networks” was awarded to Princeton University. Professor Torquato is the lead principal investigator. The total funding is 6.25 million dollars over 5 years. For more information, please see the official announcement from the United States Department of Defense and the announcement … Continue Reading Department of Defense Grant to Study Transport in Disordered Hyperuniform Systems and Networks Awarded to Princeton University

Read the full paper: here Link to the journal: here The purpose of this work is to understand the fundamental connection between structural correlations and light localization in three-dimensional (3D) open scattering systems of finite size. We numerically investigate the transport of vector electromagnetic waves scattered by resonant electric dipoles spatially arranged in 3D space … Continue Reading “Subdiffusive wave transport and weak localization transition in three-dimensional stealthy hyperuniform disordered systems” is Published in Physical Review B

Read the full paper: here Link to the journal: here Dense, disordered packings of particles are useful models of low-temperature amorphous phases of matter, biological systems, granular media, and colloidal systems. The study of dense packings of nonspherical particles enables one to ascertain how rotational degrees of freedom affect packing behavior. Here, we study superballs, … Continue Reading “Characterization of void space, large-scale structure, and transport properties of maximally random jammed packings of superballs” is Published in Physical Review Materials
