# gst: apropos of bubble rearrangements, transition from slip to scraping as critical-like behavior in foam dynamics.


<< Jamming systems, including colloids, emulsions, foams, and biological tissues, undergo significant deformation during processes like material scraping or wound self-healing. To adequately spread a foam or cream over a surface, external force must be applied to artificially scrape it. Notably, the transition from slip to scraping when foam is manipulated using a rigid plate remains poorly understood. >>

<< Systematic observations of the internal foam structure during scraping were conducted, and the scraping length was qualitatively analyzed by varying the scraping velocity. (AA) study reveals that the transition from slip to scraping is driven by the sequential propagation of bubble rearrangements. Furthermore, the scraping length diverges towards the transition point, with a critical exponent of approximately 0.61. >>

<< These findings align with directional percolation theory, underscoring the robustness of the theoretical framework. >>

# gst: quantum jamming on the macroscopic scale


 << In the presence of kinetic constraints, quasiparticles describing the behavior of an ordered arrangement of quantum spins can get “stuck” as their density increases. Because of its similarity to the formation of amorphous solids, this situation can be interpreted as the quantum analog of jamming. Jammed states are intrinsically unstable and small perturbations produce unusual nonequilibrium dynamics. >> 

 AA << show that quantum jamming is a mechanism to make microscopic phenomena visible at a macroscopic scale: A single impurity produces a permanent change in the state, and a few impurities leave an imprint of their scattering properties and bound states. >>
