Jones, Manon Jouanlanne, Qing Zhang, Emanuela Del Gado, and Irmgard Bischofberger Phys. Rev. E 106, 050001 (2022) – Published 7 November 2022 | | | Featured in Physics John Ladan and Stephen W. Morris Phys. Rev. E 106, 054211 (2022) – Published 17 November 2022  | Some icicles develop surface ripples as they grow. Researchers now explain the growth mechanism, but a full explanation remains elusive. | | | | | | Editors' Suggestion M. Berry, David Limberg, M. E. Lee-Trimble, Ryan Hayward, and C. D. Santangelo Phys. Rev. E 106, 055002 (2022) – Published 7 November 2022  | Linkages are mechanical assemblies of rods connected by rotating joints that are of both practical and theoretical interest. They can be designed to perform certain motions, and this work describes a method to do so more easily by focusing on perturbations around special configurations called branch points. | | | | | | Editors' Suggestion Claudia Artiaco, Rafael Díaz Hernández Rojas, Giorgio Parisi, and Federico Ricci-Tersenghi Phys. Rev. E 106, 055310 (2022) – Published 15 November 2022  | Simulating the jamming of hard spheres is difficult because of the singular interaction potential, which is either zero or infinite. This paper analyzes an algorithm that uses a mapping onto a constrained optimization problem to generate jammed hard-sphere packings that satisfy force balance and are globally stable. | | | | | | Editors' Suggestion Letter Juliane U. Klamser, Tridib Sadhu, and Deepak Dhar Phys. Rev. E 106, L052101 (2022) – Published 3 November 2022  | This article studies a system of rods pinned on a lattice with only rotational degrees of freedom, using Monte Carlo simulations. The system shows an infinite number of phase transitions as a function of the inverse temperature and the relative size of the rod with respect to the lattice, that can be broadly characterized as either Ising-like or of geometrical origin. | | | | | | Editors' Suggestion Letter Maximilian R. Bailey, Alexander R. Sprenger, Fabio Grillo, Hartmut Löwen, and Lucio Isa Phys. Rev. E 106, L052602 (2022) – Published 22 November 2022  | Active matter experiments are often analyzed in terms of the active Brownian particle model. In this paper the authors show that a commonly used approximation to estimate model parameters can lead to erroneous results, and they propose an improved procedure. | | | | | | | |
