Apparent Hysteresis in a Driven System with Self-Organized Drag
Apparent Hysteresis in a Driven System with Self-Organized Drag
The motion of extended defects in materials is often resisted by interaction with diffusing impurities. The defect undergoes a transition from slow to fast migration, or vice versa. This transition is commonly hysteretic, with the defect jumping back and forth between these kinetic states. We explore such hysteresis within a …
