We study, experimentally, the dynamics of a binary mixture of air-fluidized disks. The disks are chiral since they incorporate a set of blades with constant tilt. Both species are identical except for their blades tilt angle, which is…
Recent experiments indicate that superconductivity in Bi$_2$Se$_3$ intercalated with Cu, Nb or Sr is nematic with rotational symmetry breaking. Motivated by this observation, we present a model study of nematic and chiral superconductivity…
