Raman measurements performed on dense H2, D2 and H2+D2 in a wide pressure-temperature range reveal the presence of the {\Delta}J=0 rotational excitation. In the gas/fluid state this excitation has zero Raman shift, but in the solid, the…
The elementary excitations in superfluid liquid He-4 named rotons have an unusual dispersion curve. The energy is an approximately quadratic function of (p-p_0), the difference between the magnitude of the momentum p and a characteristic…
We prove a strong form of spontaneous breaking of rotational symmetry for a simple model of two-dimensional crystals with random defects in thermal equilibrium at low temperature. The defects consist of isolated missing atoms.
The hybridization of the single-excitation branch with the two-excitation continuum in the momentum region beyond the roton minimum is reconsidered by including the effect of the interference term between one and two excitations. Fits to…
We investigate the impact of rigid rotation on the spontaneous breaking of U(1) symmetry in a Bose gas, which is described by a self-interacting complex scalar field Lagrangian. Rigid rotation is introduced through a specific metric that…

We study the replica symmetry breaking (RSB) in the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE) random matrix model. We find that the RSB occurs at the transition temperature $T_{\text{RSB}}\sim N^{-2/3}$ in the large $N$ limit. We argue that this…
When a rotating neutron star loses angular momentum, the reduction of the centrifugal force makes it contract. This perturbs each fluid element, raising the local pressure and originating deviations from beta equilibrium, inducing reactions…

We suggest the procedure of direct derivation of the symmetry energy from the shift of neutron-proton chemical potentials \Delta\lambda=\lambda_{n}- \lambda_{p} for nuclei beyond the beta-stability line. We observe the presence of anomalous…
An analysis of experimental data shows that, in addition to phonon--roton excitations in superfluid helium, there necessarily exist at least one branch of elementary excitations whose energy spectrum strongly depends on temperature. On this…
We suggest that the dynamical spontaneous symmetry breaking reported in a turbulent swirling flow at $Re=40~000$ by Cortet et al., Phys. Rev. Lett., 105, 214501 (2010) can be described through a continuous one parameter family…
We study spontaneous symmetry breaking in phi^4_(1+1) using the light-front formulation of the field theory. Since the physical vacuum is always the same as the perturbative vacuum in light-front field theory the fields must develop a…
