We consider the problem of viscous fingering in the presence of quenched disorder, that is both weak and short-range correlated. The two-point correlation function of the harmonic measure is calculated perturbatively, and is used in order to calculate the correction and the box-counting fractal dimension. We show that the disorder increases the fractal dimension, and that its effect decreases logarithmically with the size of the fractal.

Abstract By pushing forward the decoupling from the three-to the four-point correlation function short-range order is systematically introduced into the description of the statistical behaviour of the Ising-model. Application of a procedure which is a natural generalization of that invented by Bogoljubov and Tjablikov for the Heisenberg-model, leads to an overall-approximation for the magnetization and the nearest-neighbour correlation which may be compared with the Ising-model variant of Oguchi's two-spin-cluster molecular field theory. The results of both approximations are very similar both for low and high temperatures, but for the transition point the new approach yields values which lie considerably lower and therefore are more reliable than those following from Oguchi's theory. Moreover, the comparison with a slight modification of the theory which is also presented in this paper, illuminates the physical mechanism which is responsible for the formation of correlations within the order of approximation, considered.

Abstract We present a method for calculating event shapes in QCD based on correlation functions of conserved currents. The method has been previously applied to the maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, but we demonstrate that supersymmetry is not essential. As a proof of concept, we consider the simplest example of a charge-charge correlation at one loop (leading order). We compute the correlation function of four electromagnetic currents and explain in detail the steps needed to extract the event shape from it. The result is compared to the standard amplitude calculation. The explicit four-point correlation function may also be of interest for the CFT community.

The AGT-W relation is a conjecture of the nontrivial duality between 4-dim quiver gauge theory and 2-dim conformal field theory. We verify a part of this conjecture for all the cases of quiver gauge groups by studying on the property of 3-point correlation function of conformal theory. We also mention the relation to [Formula: see text] algebra as one of the promising direction towards the proof of the remaining part.

Snow Microstructure

Abstract. Finding relevant microstructural parameters beyond the density is a longstanding problem which hinders the formulation of accurate parametrizations of physical properties of snow. Towards a remedy we address the effective thermal conductivity tensor of snow via known anisotropic, second-order bounds. The bound provides an explicit expression for the thermal conductivity and predicts the relevance of a microstructural anisotropy parameter Q which is given by an integral over the two-point correlation function and unambiguously defined for arbitrary snow structures. For validation we compiled a comprehensive data set of 167 snow samples. The set comprises individual samples of various snow types and entire time series of metamorphism experiments under isothermal and temperature gradient conditions. All samples were digitally reconstructed by micro-computed tomography to perform microstructure-based simulations of heat transport. The incorporation of anisotropy via Q considerably reduces the root mean square error over the usual density-based parametrization. The systematic quantification of anisotropy via the two-point correlation function suggests a generalizable route to incorporate microstructure into snowpack models. We indicate the inter-relation of the conductivity to other properties and outline a potential impact of Q on dielectric constant, permeability and adsorption rate of diffusing species in the pore space.
