We directly measure the low energy excitation modes of the quantum Ising magnet LiHoF$_4$ using microwave spectroscopy. Instead of a single electronic mode, we find a set of collective electronuclear modes, in which the spin-$1/2$ Ising…

Localization in one-dimensional disordered or quasiperiodic non-interacting systems in presence of power-law hopping is very different from localization in short-ranged systems. Power-law hopping leads to algebraic localization as opposed…
It is shown that the Coulomb drag between two identical layers in the Anderson insulting state indicates a striking difference between the Mott and Efros-Shklovskii (ES) insulators. In the former, the trans-resistance $\rho_t$ is…

Collective excitations of many-body electron systems can carry internal structure, tied to the quantum geometry of the Hilbert space in which they are embedded. This has been shown explicitly for particle-hole-like excitations, which carry…
