THE CLAPP-GRIFFITHS BESSEMER PLANT

Temporal Griffiths phases.

Disorder is an unavoidable ingredient of real systems. Spatial disorder generates Griffiths phases (GPs) which, in analogy to critical points, are characterized by a slow relaxation of the order parameter and divergences of quantities such as the susceptibility. However, these singularities appear in an extended region of the parameter space and not just at a (critical) point, i.e., there is ge...

Two Griffiths inequalities for the Potts model

Ganikhodjaev and Razak have proved versions of the two Griffiths inequalities for the ferromagnetic Potts model. We show how their inequalities may be derived via the FKG inequality for the random-cluster representation of the Potts model.

Griffiths, Elimination & Psychopathology

Lemuel Matthews Griffiths

The Bristol Medico-Chirurgical Society mourns the loss of Lemuel Matthews Griffiths, who died on September 22nd, lri eightieth year, an Ex-President and one of its earliest an(i most active members. With this issue already in the Press it is quite impossible to do justice to his memory or give a(lequate expression to the well-earned gratitude of his medical c?nfreres in Bristol for the many yea...

Effective model of the electronic Griffiths phase

The recent discovery of a number of heavy fermion materials with non-Fermi liquid (NFL) thermodynamic and transport properties has been followed by a significant theoretical effort to understand the origin of the NFL behavior.1 In the cleaner systems, the proximity to a quantum critical point appears to dominate many of the observed properties.2–10 In other heavy fermion systems disorder seems ...
