# gst: apropos of transitions, two aspects of intermittency

<< intermittency produces significant probability of rare events that may locally accelerate the collision rates by a large factor in comparison with estimates using typical events. >>

<< Increasing intermittency of turbulence destroys the theory not via stronger bursts, but rather via increase of characteristic sizes of regions of calm and quiescent flow. ([AA️] remind that these two aspects of intermittency go together: increase of regions of calm flow and at the same time increased probability of strong bursts ([8] U. Frisch, Turbulence: The Legacy of A. N. Kolmogorov, (Cambridge University Press, New York, 1995).). >>

# gst: apropos of transitions, when collisions can induce coherent dynamics.

<< In this paper (AA)  demonstrate a route to develop coherence in a system of non-driven oscillators. Here, the coherence is brought about via physical collisions through which the oscillators exchange energy. While coherence in the classical situations occurs due to sustained coupling terms in the dynamical equations, collision induced coherence is enabled solely through strong interactions that are of intermittent nature! >>

<< Very few studies (..) have attempted to study the contact dynamics during a collision. (AA) have generalized the framework of these experiments to demonstrate the collision-induced development of coherent dynamics in the simple one-dimensional arrangement of balls known as the Newton’s cradle. >>

# gst: depicting scenarios between wobblers and kinks; energy transfers and destructive interferences

<< asymmetric scattering between wobblers and kinks (..) is investigated in two different scenarios. First, the collision between wobblers with opposite phase is analyzed. (..) a destructive interference between the shape modes of the colliding wobblers takes place at the impact time. The second scenario involves the scattering between a wobbler and an (unexcited) kink. In this case the energy transfer from the wobbler to the kink can be examined. The dependence of the final velocities and wobbling amplitudes of the scattered wobblers on the collision velocity and on the initial wobbling amplitude is discussed. Both situations lead to very different fractal structures in the velocity diagrams. >>️

<< it is also worthwhile mentioning the results displayed (..) It can be verified that systematically when a scattered wobbler gains more kinetic energy than the other, it obtains less vibrational energy and vice versa. >>️
