Strong Coulomb interactions can drive electrons to crystallize into a Wigner lattice. Achieving the bosonic analogue - a crystal of excitons - has remained elusive due to their short lifetimes and weaker interactions. Here, we report the…

The fundamental properties of an exciton are determined by the spin, valley, energy, and spatial wavefunctions of the Coulomb bound electron and hole. In van der Waals materials, these attributes can be widely engineered through layer…

We derive a general expression for the multipole expansion of the electro-magnetic interaction in relativistic heavy-ion collisions, which can be employed in higher-order dynamical calculations of Coulomb excitation. The interaction has…
