Plasmas have been recently studied as topological materials. However, a comprehensive picture of topological phases and topological phase transitions in cold magnetized plasmas is still missing. Here we systematically map out all the…
The two-dimensional one-component plasma at the special coupling \beta = 2 is known to be exactly solvable, for its free energy and all of its correlations, on a variety of surfaces and with various boundary conditions. Here we study this…

The spin-orbit interaction (SOI) in zincblende semiconductor quantum wells can be set to a symmetry point, in which spin decay is strongly suppressed for a helical spin mode. Signatures of such a persistent spin helix (PSH) have been probed…
