Star-forming Galaxies and Quenched Systems throughout Cosmic Time
… the investigation of star-forming galaxies and quenched systems at high redshifts, exploring their evolution and properties throughout cosmic time. Firstly, I utilise the foreground lensing of massive galaxy clusters in the Hubble Frontier Fields to probe the high-redshift evolution of the main …

Phase Behavior, Fluid Structure, and Slow Dynamics in Polymer -Colloid Mixtures: Novel Liquid State Theory and Its Applications
… agreement with measurements in deep quenched systems and buoyancy-matched systems. Calculations of the dependence of the elastic shear moduli on depletion attraction, solvent quality and scaled polymer concentration are in excellent agreement with experiment, and deep in the gel phase …

Observation of the Kibble-Zurek mechanism in a bosonic gas
… phenomenon, which applies to many different systems in nature, and it predicts a power-law dependence of the defect density on the quench rate. This thesis reports on the results of the experimental study of the Kibble-Zurek mechanism in elongated Bose-Einstein condensates of atomic sodium …

A study of the damage accumulation process in poly(aryl ether ketone ketone) and its AS4 carbon fiber reinforced composites
… were characterized using a battery of tests. The quenched composite systems have lower moduli, but higher toughness and elongations. The quenched systems also have the best fatigue performance and therefore, it can be concluded that the quenched composite systems have the best potential as far as …

Approach to equilibrium in systems with continuous symmetries
… we consider the approach to equilibrium of quenched systems with continuous symmetry, whose relaxational dynamics is dominated by topological defects. The general aspects of the problem are discussed in chapter 1. In chapters 2 and 3, we report the results of two and three dimensional …

Approach to equilibrium in systems with continuous symmetries
… I consider the approach to equilibrium of quenched systems with continuous symmetry, whose relaxational dynamics is dominated by topological defects. The general aspects of the problem and relevant theoretical, numerical and experimental results from the literature are discussed in chapter …
