We have analyzed the quantum interference effects in the macroscopic ''superconducting molecule''. The composite system consists of two massive superconducting rings, each interrupted by a Josephson junction, which are at the same time…
It is shown that a heat energy can be transformed in an electric energy of direct current by the use of an inhomogeneous superconducting ring. This trasformation is possible both at an iterative change of temperature and at an unaltered…
A repulsively interacting Bose-Einstein condensate on a ring is well known to show persistent currents. For attractive interactions, however, a bound state may form that renders the rotation classical. Here we show that in a…
The electronic transport properties and the magnetic susceptibility were measured in detail in $YBaCo_2O_{5.45}$. Close to the so-called metal-insulator transition, strong effects of resistance relaxation, a clear thermal hysteresis and a…

Understanding the magnetic excitations in high-transition temperature (high-$T_c$) copper oxides is important because they may mediate the electron pairing for superconductivity. By determining the wavevector ({\bf Q}) and energy…
We develop the concept of fractal metamaterials which consist of arrays of nano and micron sized rings containing Josephson junctions which play the role of "atoms" in such artificial materials. We show that if some of the junctions have…
We analyze the magnetic and transport properties of a double quantum dot coupled to superconducting leads. In addition to the possible phase transition to a $\pi$ state, already present in the single dot case, this system exhibits a richer…

We present the transport studies of field variation of the pinning force for the flux motion across the twin boundaries in YBaCuO single crystals. It is found that the depinning current J_c decreases with an increase in the magnetic field…
We report observations of the acceleration and trapping of energetic ions and electrons between a pair of corotating interaction regions (CIRs). The event occurred in Carrington Rotation 2060. Observed at spacecraft STEREO-B, the two CIRs…
In bound states in the continuum (BIC) the mass of a composite particle is greater than the total mass of its constituents. Using the ladder Bethe-Salpeter equation, the BIC state in a system of two charged particles $a$ and $b$ with…
The beam-ion interaction is a potential limitation of beam performance in electron accelerators, especially where the beam emittance is of a great concern in future ultra-low emittance light source. "Conventionally", the beam instability…
We describe a "train" effect which may exist in small metallic and semiconductor rings and might be associated with the long-standing problem of the persistent current enhancement. The current is associated with the cooperative motion of N…

We study persistent currents for interacting one-dimensional bosons on a tight ring trap, subjected to a rotating barrier potential, which induces an artificial U(1) gauge field. We show that, at intermediate interactions, the persistent…
