We study collective excitations in a superfluid neutron gas at zero temperature within the quasiparticle random phase approximation. The particle-hole residual interaction is obtained from a Skyrme functional, while a separable interaction…
We study dynamics of a superconducting condensate in the presence of a domain wall defect in the order parameter. We find that broken translation and reflection symmetries result in new collective excitations, bound to the domain wall…
The influence of the admixture of the $^{3}F_{2}$ state onto collective spin oscillations and neutrino emission processes in the triplet superfluid neutron liquid is studied in the BCS approximation. The eigen mode of spin oscillations with…
The eigen mode of spin oscillations with $\omega\simeq \sqrt{58/35}\Delta$ is predicted to exist besides already known spin waves with $\omega \simeq\Delta /\sqrt{5}$ in the triplet superfluid neutron condensate in the inner core of neutron…
The phase transitions in dense neutron matter with triplet pairing have been investigated. The spectrum of phases of the $^3P_2$-$^3F_2$ model, which adequately describes pairing in this system, is identified and classified with the aid of…
It was recently shown that conventional phonon-electron interactions may induce a triplet pairing state in time-reversal invariant 3D Dirac semi - metals. Starting from the microscopic model of the isotropic Dirac semi-metal, the…
We consider a generic Hamiltonian that is suitable for describing a uniform BCS superfluid on a lattice with a two-point basis, and study its collective excitations at zero temperature. For this purpose, we first derive an…
Contrary to what is claimed in the article by P. F. Bedaque and A. N. Nicholson [Phys. Rev. C 87, 055807 (2013)], their result do not contradict but rather complement the conclusion of the paper by L. B. Leinson [Phys. Rev. C 85, 0655021…
Spontaneous symmetry breaking is a central paradigm of elementary particle physics, magnetism, superfluidity and superconductivity. According to Goldstone's theorem, phase transitions that break continuous symmetries lead to the existence…
The existence of a paradoxical supersolid phase of matter, possessing the apparently incompatible properties of crystalline order and superfluidity, was predicted 50 years ago. Solid helium was the natural candidate, but there supersolidity…
I consider a simple model of a three-band superconductor with repulsive interband interactions. The frustration, associated with the odd number of bands, leads to the possible existence of an intrinsically complex time-reversal symmetry…
We study the low-energy collective excitations of the neutron star inner crust, where a neutron superfluid coexists with a Coulomb lattice of nuclei. The dispersion relation of the modes is calculated systematically from a microscopic…
The neutron-star inner crust is assumed to be superfluid at relevant temperatures. The contribution of neutron quasiparticles to thermodynamic and transport properties of the crust is therefore strongly suppressed by the pairing gap.…
Recently two branches of weakly dispersive collective modes have been discovered in under-doped cuprates by inelastic neutron scattering. Polarization analysis reveals that the modes are magnetic excitations. They are only visible for…
Time-reversal symmetry breaking (TRSB) superconductors show a rich collective mode spectrum. In general, collective excitations in superconductors can provide crucial information on the symmetry of the broken phase, in particular, serving…
Order parameter collective modes are the fingerprint of a condensed phase. The spectroscopy of these modes in superfluid $^3$He and unconventional superconductors can provide key information on the symmetry of the condensate as well as the…
Neutrino collective excitations are studied in the Standard Model at high temperatures below the symmetry breaking scale. Two parameters determine the properties of the collective excitations: a mass scale $m_\nu=gT/4$ which determines the…
We show that baryon number symmetry is spontaneously broken in a class of three-dimensional, ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric theories with a discrete mass spectrum. These models serve as lower-dimensional, less-supersymmetric analogs of the…
We analyze the effects of order parameter fluctuations on the ground state of fully gapped charge-neutral fermionic superfluids. The Goldstone mode associated with the spontaneously broken symmetry leads to a problem of coupled…
