Statistical Mechanics Beyond Equilibrium: Research and Outreach at Virginia Tech DMR-0414122

This project at Virginia Tech focuses on statistical mechanics far from equilibrium, involving undergraduates, graduate students, postdocs, and summer interns supported by the grant. Junior researchers utilize computer simulations, while senior scientists conduct full-scale and analytic studies. The team is led by Beate Schmittmann and Royce K.P. Zia.

  2. Statistical Mechanics far from Equilibrium Beate Schmittmann and Royce K.P. Zia Virginia TechDMR-0414122 Education and outreach: As our project involves a wide spectrum of techniques, it is natural that both undergraduates (David Adams, Brian Skinner) and graduate (Jiajia Dong, Sayak Mukherjee) students form a core component of our research. In addition, three postdocs (Andrew Angel, Izabella Benczik, and Yong Wu) and a summer intern (Max Lavrentovich, undergraduate from Kenyon College) are supported in part by this grant. While junior researchers often discover new phenomena through computer simulations of simple models, full-scale and analytic studies are implemented by the more senior scientists. The work outlined here was carried out by David Adams, who just received a BS in Physics and Computer Science.
