We have measured x-ray diffraction and small-angle x-ray scattering of fluid rubidium by reducing electron density down to the range where the compressibility of the interacting electron gas has been theoretically predicted to become negative. Negative compressibility is closely associated with a negative value of the static dielectric function, which makes the screened Coulomb interaction amon...

An ultracold Fermi gas with repulsive interaction has been studied. For weak interactions, the atomic gas is metastable, and the interactions were characterized by obtaining the isothermal compressibility from atomic density profiles. For stronger interactions (kFa  1), rapid conversion into Feshbach molecules is observed. When the conversion rate becomes comparable to the Fermi energy divided...

We calculate the stopping power for heavy-ion diclusters moving in a strongly coupled two-dimensional electron gas system by using the local field corrected dielectric function at finite temperature. We obtain a parameterized local field correction factor based on a relation between the thermal compressibility and exchange-correlation energy in two-dimension. The interpolated parameter is deriv...

this article describes an accurate subpico flowmeter bifurcatedin to liquid and gas flowrates less than 1mol/s for both mems/nems and cryogenic technology applications. the mems/nems are described as either two gauges (instrument), or quartz fluctuating forks, even if the liquid or gas flows through an element, as well as cryogenic technology consisting of arrays of either parallel photonic cry...

We discuss the thermodynamic signatures for the topological phase transitions into Majorana and Weyl superfluid phases in ultracold Fermi gases in two and three dimensions (2D and 3D) in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit coupling and a Zeeman field. We analyze the thermodynamic properties exhibiting the distinct nature of the topological phase transitions linked with the Majorana fermions (2D F...

Electron-electron interactions generally reduce the low temperature resistivity due to the screening of the impurity potential by the electron gas. In the weak-coupling limit, the magnitude of this screening effect is determined by the thermodynamic compressibility which is proportional to the inverse screening length. We show that when strong correlations are present, although the compressibil...

We have measured the local electronic compressibility of a two-dimensional hole gas as it crosses the B = 0 metal-insulator transition. In the metallic phase, the compressibility follows the mean-field Hartree-Fock (HF) theory and is found to be spatially homogeneous. In the insulating phase it deviates by more than an order of magnitude from the HF predictions and is spatially inhomogeneous. T...

In this study for the first time a new description of compressibility factor is rendered based on the virial expansion. The compressibility factor as a function of M-factor is qualitatively and quantitatively expressed. At first, we present how may the third, fourth and higher order virial coefficients be logically ignored in order to simplify the virial equation. The results show, wh...

The effect of granular pressure on the fluctuation volume fraction is investigated experimentally in a gas–solid flow system. Granular compressibility, defined by response fractions pressure, also measured. It found that there exists critical beyond which transition from coexistence liquid-like phase and gas-like to homogenous fluids takes place. heterogenous characterized an abrupt change comp...
