We find a series of topological phase transitions of increasing order, beyond the more standard second-order phase transition in a one-dimensional topological superconductor. The jumps in the order of the transitions depend on the range of…

We consider trasfer-ionization in collisions of fast (3.6 -- 11 MeV/u) protons, alpha-particles and lithium nuclei with helium atoms. There are just a few basic mechanisms contributing to this process which can be grouped into correlated…
Pressure induced interaction between core electrons, the core level crossing (CLC) transition has been observed in hcp Os at P~400 GPa [L. Dubrovinksy, et al., Nature 525, 226-229 (2015)]. In this work, we carry out a systematic study of…

Clocks based on nuclear isomer transitions promise exceptional stability and precision. The low transition energy of the thorium-229 isomer makes it an ideal candidate, as it has been excited by a vacuum-ultraviolet laser and is highly…
Optical atomic clocks based on trapped ions suffer from systematic frequency shifts of the clock transition due to interaction with blackbody radiation from the environment. These shifts can be compensated if the blackbody radiation…
