The magnetic field pervading our Galaxy is a crucial constituent of the interstellar medium: it mediates the dynamics of interstellar clouds, the energy density of cosmic rays, and the formation of stars. The field associated with ionized…

Magnetic fields with field strengths between $10^{-17}\,$G and a few Nanogauss are expected to exist today in the intergalactic medium (IGM). Their origin is unknown, but may be of primordial nature, in which case they would have influenced…
We show that interlayer current induces topological superconductivity in twisted bilayers of nodal superconductors. A bulk gap opens and achieves its maximum near a ``magic'' twist angle $\theta_\mathrm{MA}$. Chiral edge modes lead to a…
Quasisymmetry is an unusual symmetry that can be present in toroidal magnetic fields, enabling confinement of charged particles and plasma. Here it is shown that both quasi-axisymmetry and quasi-helical symmetry can be achieved to a much…
