    • Dynamical theory for the battery's electromotive force 

      Alicki, Robert; Gelbwaser Klimovsky, David; Jenkins Villalobos, Alejandro; von Hauff, Elizabeth (2021-03-23)
      We propose a dynamical theory of how the chemical energy stored in a battery generates the electromotive force (emf). In this picture, the battery's half-cell acts as an engine, cyclically extracting work from its underlying ...
    • Leaking elastic capacitor as model for active matter 

      Alicki, Robert; Gelbwaser Klimovsky, David; Jenkins Villalobos, Alejandro (2021-05-24)
      We introduce the “leaking elastic capacitor” (LEC) model, a nonconservative dynamical system that combines simple electrical and mechanical degrees of freedom. We show that an LEC connected to an external voltage source ...
