Recent claims in the literature have suggested that the {\it WMAP} quadrupole is not primordial in origin, and arises from an aliasing of the much larger dipole field because of incorrect satellite pointing. We attempt to reproduce this…

The optical properties of the layered magnet CrSBr are dominated by intralayer excitons: the antiferromagnetic order between the layers makes layer-to-layer charge hopping, and therefore interlayer excitons, spin-forbidden. An external…
We present a theoretical model of the "isostructural" \gamma-\alpha phase transition in Ce which is based on quadrupolar interactions due to coupled charge density fluctuations of 4f electrons and of conduction electrons. Conduction…
