Arjendu Pattanayak (physics) and Carleton students publish in The Physical Review
Arjendu Pattanayak, assistant professor of physics, co-authored a paper titled “Coarse-grained entropy decrease and phase-space focusing in Hamiltonian dynamics” with Carleton graduates and undergraduates Anton de la Fuente ’03, Edward Holby ’04, Daniel Krawisz ’04, Jorge Silva ’04, Daniel Brooks ’05 and Lawrence Uricchio ’05, that appeared in the July issue of The Physical Review.
Pattanayak spent three weeks on an invited visit to the Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems (MPIPKS) in Dresden, Germany where he gave a talk titled “A redefined Planck’s constant? Parameter scaling in the decoherent quantum-classical transition” at MPIPKS and the Technical University Dresden.
Pattanayak also co-organized, with George Haller of MIT, a two-part mini-symposium on “Diffusive Mixing in Fluid Flows” at the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics Dynamical Systems meeting and he gave a talk on on “Persistent states in statistical mechanics” at the event.
