The paper “Homann stagnation-point flow impinging on a biaxially stretching surface“, coauthored by Matt Turner and Patrick Weidman (University of Colorado), has been accepted for publication in the European Journal of Mechanics B/Fluids. The paper identifies exact solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations when a stretching surface is placed below a stagnation point flow. Four branches of […]

Alessandro Torrielli gave a virtual seminar today (Wednesday 18 November) in the Integrability, Dualities and Deformations Seminar Series. The title of his talk is “How one massless TBA was exactly solved“. In the talk, he reviewed the exact solution of the massless relativistic Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz which describes the non-trivial BMN limit of massless right-right […]
