Phonon hydrodynamic transport at elevated temperature
For over half a century, phonon hydrodynamic transport was deemed exotic and mattered only at extremely low temperatures. In this work, by combining the theoretical and experimental approach, we successfully predict and confirm the existence of phonon hydrodynamic transport in graphite above 200 K. …

Signatures of hydrodynamic transport in an electron system
… collective behaviors. Here we explore how the hydrodynamic behavior manifests itself in the electron transport through nanoscale constrictions. Free electron flows through constrictions in metals are often regarded as an ultimate high-conduction charge transfer mechanism. However, as shown in …

Nonlocal ballistic and hydrodynamic transport in two-dimensional electron systems
Electrical transport in materials is typically diffusive, due to dominant momentum-relaxing scattering of carriers with the phonons or defects. In ultraclean material systems such as GaAs/AlGaAs or graphene/hBN heterostructures, momentum-relaxing can be suppressed, leading to the onset of …

HYDRODYNAMIC AND BALLISTIC TRANSPORT IN ULTRA-CLEAN 2D ELECTRON SYSTEMS
This work is broadly on hydrodynamic transport in mesoscopic systems, resulting from strong electron-electron interactions. In the first part, we consider electrons are in near thermal equilibrium with each other, and for which case we calculate conductance by solving hydrodynamic equations. We do …

Transport in a Strongly Coupled Charged Relativistic Quantum Fluid in the Presence of a Chiral Anomaly & a Strong Magnetic Field Via Hydrodynamics & Holography
… axial charges to give rise to a host of novel transport phenomena. According to the gauge/gravity correspondence, also referred to as holography the described field theory state is dual to a charged magnetic black brane which is a solution of Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory. I compute the …

Transport and retention of benthic marine invertebrates in the Southern Tauranga Basin
… populations may be more closed because of local hydrodynamic conditions causing larval retention within the source estuary. In this thesis, field observations and numerical simulations were used to investigate the effect of estuary morphology on the transport and retention of benthic invertebrate …

Stochastic dynamics of cell adhesion in hydrodynamic flow
In this thesis the interplay between hydrodynamic transport and specific adhesion is theoretically investigated. An important biological motivation for this work is the rolling adhesion of white blood cells experimentally investigated in flow chambers. There, specific adhesion is mediated by weak …
