CO is one of the most abundant ice components on interstellar dust grains. When it is mixed with amorphous solid water (ASW) or located on its surface, an absorption band of CO at 2152 cm$^{-1}$ is always present in laboratory measurements.…

We consider the Coulomb drag between two two-dimensional electron layers at filling factor \nu = 1/2 each, using a strong coupling approach within the composite fermion picture. Due to an attractive interlayer interaction, composite…

We study the Coulomb drag between two strange-metal layers using the Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton model from holography. We show that the low-temperature dependence of the drag resistivity is $\rho_D \propto T^4$, which strongly deviates from…
The Hubbard on-site repulsion $U$ between opposite spin electrons on the same atomic orbital is widely regarded to be the most important source of electronic correlation in solids. Here we extend the Hubbard model to account for the fact…
We show that very long range repulsive interactions of a generalized Coulomb-like form $V(R)\sim R^{-\alpha}$, with $\alpha<d$ ($d$-dimensionality), typically introduce very strong frustration, resulting in extreme fragility of the…
We have studied the resistivity, $\rho$, of a two-dimensional electron system in silicon in the temperature range 200 mK < T < 7.5 K at zero magnetic field at low electron densities, when the electron system is in the insulating regime. Our…
Methods for controlling the motion of single particles, optically levitated in vacuum, have developed rapidly in recent years. The technique of cold damping makes use of feedback-controlled, electrostatic forces to increase dissipation…
Unconventional symmetries of the order parameter allowed some researchers to maintain that a purely repulsive interaction between electrons provides superconductivity without phonons in a number of high-temperature superconductors. It is…
