Influence of Polymer Architecture and Polymer− Surface Interaction on the Elution Chromatography of Macromolecules through a Microporous Media

CM Guttman, EA Di Marzio, JF Douglas - Macromolecules, 1996 - ACS Publications
The elution chromatography of flexible polymer molecules flowing through a microporous
particle media is described by a combination of the Casassa model of flow segregation and …

Renormalization group theory of crossovers

D O'Connor, CR Stephens - Physics Reports, 2002 - Elsevier
Crossover phenomena are both ubiquitous and important. In this report, we review the
foundations of renormalization group theory as applied to crossover behavior and consider …

Renormalization-group picture of the Lifshitz critical behavior

MM Leite - Physical Review B, 2003 - APS
Field-theoretic renormalization-group methods are developed to describe in a unified
fashion the critical exponents of an m-fold Lifshitz point at the two-loop order in the …

Finite size effects in the anisotropic (λ/4!)(φ14+ φ24) d model

CD Fosco, NF Svaiter - Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2001 - pubs.aip.org
In this article we consider an interacting quantum field theory model in the presence of
boundaries. We shall assume that the system is finite along one dimension z 0, L, and …

Critical behavior of generic competing systems

MM Leite - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and Materials …, 2005 - APS
Generic higher character Lifshitz critical behaviors are described using field theory and ϵ L
expansion renormalization-group methods. These critical behaviors describe systems with …

Surface scaling behavior of isotropic Heisenberg systems: Critical exponents, structure factor, and profiles

M Krech - Physical Review B, 2000 - APS
The surface scaling behavior of classical isotropic Heisenberg magnets is investigated by
Monte Carlo methods in d= 3 dimensions for various values of the surface-to-bulk coupling …

Phase transitions and dimensional reduction

D O'Connor, CR Stephens - Nuclear Physics B, 1991 - Elsevier
Using field theoretic methods a formalism is presented within which the critical behaviour of
a system undergoing a dimensional reduction may be investigated. As a paradigm we study …

The two-loop massless (λ∕ 4!) φ4 model in nontranslational invariant domain

MA Alcalde, GF Hidalgo, NF Svaiter - Journal of mathematical physics, 2006 - pubs.aip.org
We study the (λ∕ 4!) φ 4 massless scalar field theory in a four-dimensional Euclidean
space, where all but one of the coordinates are unbounded. We are considering Dirichlet …

Finite size effects in thermal field theory

NF Svaiter - Journal of mathematical physics, 2004 - pubs.aip.org
We consider a neutral self-interacting massive scalar field defined in ad-dimensional
Euclidean space. Assuming thermal equilibrium, we discuss the one-loop perturbative …

Dimensional crossover and effective exponents

SB Liao, M Strickland - Nuclear Physics B, 1997 - Elsevier
We investigate the critical behavior of the γΦ4 theory defined on S 1× R d having two finite
length scales/gb, the circumference of S1, and k-1, the blocking scale introduced by the …
