🔬 Magnetic fields show heat signatures in graphene flow

A new kinetic simulation study examined how magnetic fields affect charge and heat transport in a graphene Corbino disk. This research was conducted by modeling a homogeneous graphene Corbino disk with inner and outer radii in a 1:5 ratio. The simulations were run using the Boltzmann transport equation and a dual-relaxation-time Callaway model. The findings reveal three signatures distinguishing hydrodynamic from diffusive electron transport under these conditions. These distinct signatures could offer a new way to identify collective electron motion. 🔬
