Calculating Reynolds number for a viscous droplet
I'm trying to develop a very basic scaling law/unit analysis for viscous droplet formation, and I'd like to get some rough numerical values of the Reynolds number to play with. To be specific, I'm ...

Design of experiments to determine proportionality
A common result of theoretical analysis in physics is some sort of relation derived from physical parameters and typically expressed in the form of a non-dimensional parameter. These scale relations ...

Scaling in Vlasov equations
This question is in reference to the paper,
http://arxiv.org/abs/1301.7182
What exactly is the argument being made on page 6 and 7?
One deduces that the function $\Delta$ has to be such that, ...

Will Anderson's Poor Man's Scaling loose its effect when band width is small?
The s-d interaction Hamiltonian is as fellows
$H_I=Js.S$, J is the coupling strength.
We focus on the antiferromagnetic case, where $J>0$.
According Anderson's poor man's scaling, the ...

Anomalous dimension for bare actions with a standard kinetic term
In this paper on p42, it is explained that when starting with a bare action that contains a standard kinetic term, this kinetic term attains a correction in the course of the RG flow which can be ...

How to express energy-momentum tensor of conformal fluid in terms of temperature?
I heard that conformal fluid has only one scaling governed by temperature, by how exactly the relation is derived between energy-momentum tensor and temperature? I will really appreciate if some ...

scaling laws for density and temperature of high-energy explosions
I'm wondering if there are heuristic ways to derive how the peak density and temperature of nuclear explosions scale with the amount of fissile/fusible material.
Does it matter what the explosion ...
