We show that the pseudogap of the quark density of states is formed in hot quark matter as a precursory phenomenon of the color superconductivity on the basis of a low-energy effective theory. We clarify that the decaying process of quarks…
We consider the experimental properties of superconductors with a gap which is an odd function of energy $\bepsk=\epsk - \mu$, i.e.\ , a gap which vanishes everywhere on the Fermi surface; this is done within a in a BCS framework. Apart…
Narrow high-mass states can arise despite large phase space when two nearly degenerate states are coupled to the same dominant decay mode. Mixing via a final-state interaction loop diagram can produce one very broad state and one narrow…
Special quantum states exist which are quasiclassical quantizations of regions of phase space that are weakly chaotic. In a weakly chaotic region, the orbits are quite regular and remain in the region for some time before escaping and…
The interaction between solid-state qubits and their environmental degrees of freedom produces non-unitary effects like decoherence and dissipation. Uncontrolled decoherence is one of the main obstacles that must be overcome in quantum…

Properties of superfluid states of two-dimensional electron systems with critical antiferromagnetic fluctuations are investigated. These correlations are found to result in the emergence of rapidly varying in the momentum space terms in all…

There is strong support in favor of an unusual $s_{\pm}$ superconducting state in the new iron-based superconductors, in which the gap parameter has opposite signs in different bands. In this case scattering between different bands by…
