INTRODUCTION: Ostriches typically avoid humans in the wild, since they correctly assess humans as potential predators, and, if approached, often run away. However, ostriches may turn aggressive rather than run when threatened, especially when cornered, and may also attack...

Phys Rev Lett. 2002 Apr 01;88(13):137004. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.88.137004. Epub 2002 Mar 18.

We examine the formation of vortices during the nonequilibrium relaxation of a high-temperature initial state of an Abelian-Higgs system. We equilibrate the scalar and gauge fields using gauge-invariant Langevin equations and relax the system by instantaneously removing thermal fluctuations....
