• Collisionless relaxation in non-neutral plasmas 

      Levin, Yan; Pakter, Renato; Teles, Tarcisio Nunes (2008) [Artigo de periódico]
      A theoretical framework is presented which allows us to quantitatively predict the final stationary state achieved by a non-neutral plasma during a process of collisionless relaxation. As a specific application, the theory ...
    • Ensemble inequivalence in a mean-field XY model with ferromagnetic and nematic couplings 

      Pikovsky, Arkady; Gupta, Shamik; Teles, Tarcisio Nunes; Benetti, Fernanda Pereira da Cruz; Pakter, Renato; Levin, Yan; Ruffo, Stefano (2014) [Artigo de periódico]
      We explore ensemble inequivalence in long-range interacting systems by studying an XY model of classical spinswith ferromagnetic and nematic coupling.We demonstrate the inequivalence bymapping themicrocanonical phase diagram ...
    • Ergodicity breaking and parametric resonances in systems with long-range interactions 

      Benetti, Fernanda Pereira da Cruz; Teles, Tarcisio Nunes; Pakter, Renato; Levin, Yan (2012) [Artigo de periódico]
      We explore the mechanism responsible for the ergodicity breaking in systems with long-range forces. In thermodynamic limit such systems do not evolve to the Boltzmann-Gibbs equilibrium, but become trapped in an out-of-equilibrium ...
    • Nonequilibrium phase transitions in systems with long-range interactions 

      Teles, Tarcisio Nunes; Benetti, Fernanda Pereira da Cruz; Pakter, Renato; Levin, Yan (2012) [Artigo de periódico]
      We introduce a generalized Hamiltonian mean field model—an XY model with both linear and quadratic coupling between spins and explicit Hamiltonian dynamics. In addition to the usual paramagnetic and ferromagnetic phases, ...
    • Relaxation and emittance growth of a thermal charged-particle beam 

      Teles, Tarcisio Nunes; Pakter, Renato; Levin, Yan (2009) [Artigo de periódico]
      We present a theory that allows us to accurately calculate the distribution functions and the emittance growth of a thermal charged-particle beam after it relaxes to equilibrium. The theory can be used to obtain the fraction ...
    • Reply to “Comment on ‘Temperature inversion in long-range interacting systems’ ” 

      Teles, Tarcisio Nunes; Gupta, Shamik; Di Cintio, Pierfrancesco; Casetti, Lapo (2016) [Artigo de periódico]
      We present evidence that the mechanism proposed in Teles et al. [Phys. Rev. E 92, 020101 (2015)], referred to as the TGDC mechanism, does apply to a model with repulsive mean-field interactions where it produces temperature ...
    • Temperature inversion in long-range interacting systems 

      Teles, Tarcisio Nunes; Gupta, Shamik; Di Cintio, Pierfrancesco; Casetti, Lapo (2015) [Artigo de periódico]
      Temperature inversions occur in nature, e.g., in the solar corona and in interstellar molecular clouds: Somewhat counterintuitively, denser parts of the system are colder than dilute ones.We propose a simple and appealing ...
