Mobile electrons in the semiconductor monolayer-MoS$_2$ form a ferromagnetic state at low temperature. The Fermi sea consists of two circles, one at the $K$-point, the other at the $\tilde{K}$-point, both with the same spin. Here, we…

One of the fundamental predictions of Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) is the spontaneous creation of particle--antiparticle pairs from vacuum in presence of a very strong electric field. Under these extreme conditions a strongly bound state…

The worldline of a free electron is revealed by applying Dirac's velocity operator to its Dirac wave function whose space-time arguments are expressed in a proper time by a Lorentz transformation. This motion can be decomposed into two…

We present a systematic determination of the order hbar fermionic energy shift when an electroweak string is perturbed. We show that the combined effect of zero modes, bound states and continuum states is to lower the total fermionic ground…
