We have investigated the surface and bulk electronic structures of the superconducting type-II Dirac semimetal 1T-PdSeTe. The superconducting transition temperature $T_C = 3.2$ K was almost twice as high as $T_C = 1.6$ K in 1T-PdTe$_2$.…
Two- and three-dimensional Kitaev magnets are prototypical frustrated quantum spin systems, in which the original spin degrees of freedom fractionalize into Majorana fermions and a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ gauge field -- a purely local phenomenon…

A type I superconductor expels a magnetic field from its interior to a surface layer of thickness $\lambda_L$, the London penetration depth. $\lambda_L$ is a function of temperature, becoming smaller as the temperature decreases. Here we…

In the context of the Ginzburg--Landau theory for critical phenomena, we consider the Euclidean $\lambda \phi ^4+\eta \phi^6$ model bounded by two parallel planes, a distance $L$ separating them. This is supposed to describe a sample of a…
We apply a recently developed scaling procedure to the analysis of equilibrium magnetization M(H) data that were obtained for T-2212 and Bi-2212single crystals and were reported in the literature. The temperature dependencies of the upper…
The nature of superconductivity in heavy-fermion materials is a subject under intense debate, and controlling this many-body state is central for its eventual understanding. Here, we examine how proximity effects may change this phenomenon,…

The zero temperature, or quantum, metal-superconductor phase transition is studied in disordered systems in dimension greater than two. A effective local field theory is developed that keeps all soft modes or fluctuations explicitly. A…
