Quantum computers, with parallel computing and entanglement effects, excel in cryptography analysis and big data processing. However, they are not fully developed yet, and their performance needs further evaluation. Traditional computer…
Using a semi-classical model, we study the formation of highly excited neutral fragments during the fragmentation of $\mathrm{H_3^+}$, a two-electron triatomic molecule, driven by an intense near-IR laser field. To do so, we first formulate…
We investigate the pressure-temperature phase diagram of YbIr$_2$Si$_2$ by measuring the electrical resistivity $\rho(T)$. In contrast to the widely investigated YbRh$_2$Si$_2$, YbIr$_2$Si$_2$ is a paramagnetic metal below $p_c\simeq 8$…
The phenomenon of frustration, which gives rise to many fascinating phenomena, is conventionally associated with the topology of non-bipartite lattices, where nearest-neighbor (nn) interactions and global connectivity compete in the…

Little is so far known about the magnetism of the $\rm A_2B_2O_7$ monoclinic layered perovskites that replace the spin-ice supporting pyrochlore structure for $r_A/r_B>1.78$. We show that high quality monoclinic Pr$_2$Ti$_2$O$_7$ single…

The occurrence of antiferromagnetism in kappa-(ET)_2X can be understood within an effective 1/2-filled band with dimers of ET molecules containing one hole each. We argue that while this effective model can describe the presence of…

Contemporary quantum materials research is guided by themes of topology and of electronic correlations. A confluence of these two themes is engineered in "moir\'e materials", an emerging class of highly tunable, strongly correlated…

Frustrated magnetic interactions in a quasi-two-dimensional [111] slab of pyrochlore lattice were studied. For uniform nearest neighbor (NN) interactions, we show that the complex magnetic problem can be mapped onto a model with two…
The very nature of the ground state of the pyrochlore compound Yb$_2$Ti$_2$O$_7$ is much debated, as experimental results demonstrate evidence for both a disordered or a long-range ordered ground state. Indeed, the delicate balance of…
This talk introduces perturbative quantum field on a heuristic level. It is directed at an audience familiar with elements of quantum mechanics, but not necessarily with high energy physics. It includes a discussion of the strategies behind…
