Pinning and Unpinning in Nonlocal Systems

چکیده
We investigate pinning regions and unpinning asymptotics in nonlocal equations. We show that phenomena are related to but different from pinning in discrete and inhomogeneous media. We establish unpinning asymptotics using geometric singular perturbation theory in several examples. We also present numerical evidence for the dependence of unpinning asymptotics on regularity of the nonlocal convolution kernel.

Observation of single-vortex pinning in superfluid 4He
Flow-induced pinning and unpinning of vortices have been investigated experimentally in superfluid 4He at temperatures varying from 14 to 44mK. The lifetime and unpinning velocities of pinned vortices could be measured by following the apparent changes of the critical velocity for phase slips. The pinned vortex size and location can be deduced from the magnitude of these changes and are found, ...
متن کاملTemperature dependence of the charge carrier mobility in gated quasi-one-dimensional systems
The many-body Monte Carlo method is used to evaluate the frequency-dependent conductivity and the average mobility of a system of hopping charges, electronic or ionic, on a one-dimensional chain or channel of finite length. Two cases are considered: the chain is connected to electrodes and in the other case the chain is confined, giving zero dc conduction. The concentration of charge is varied ...

متن کاملVortex Unpinning in Precessing Neutron Stars
The neutron vortices thought to exist in the inner crust of a neutron star interact with nuclei and are expected to pin to the nuclear lattice. Evidence for long-period precession in pulsars, however, requires that pinning be negligible. We estimate the strength of vortex pinning and show that hydrodynamic forces present in a precessing star are likely sufficient to unpin all of the vortices of...
متن کاملSynchronization criteria for T-S fuzzy singular complex dynamical networks with Markovian jumping parameters and mixed time-varying delays using pinning control
In this paper, we are discuss about the issue of synchronization for singular complex dynamical networks with Markovian jumping parameters and additive time-varying delays through pinning control by Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy theory.The complex dynamical systems consist of m nodes and the systems switch from one mode to another, a Markovian chain with glorious transition probabili...
