We show that defects in 1D rings decrease the conductance (when the ring is opened up) many more times than it decreases the persistent currents. This means that the states in such a 1D ring are very sensitive to twisting of boundary…
Quenching an ultracold bosonic gas in a ring across the Bose-Einstein condensation phase transition is known, and has been experimentally observed, to lead to the spontaneous emergence of persistent currents. The present work examines how…
