Neutrino-matter interactions play an important role in the post-merger evolution of neutron star-neutron star and black hole-neutron star mergers. Most notably, they determine the properties of the bright optical/infrared transients…

The discovery of the Fe pnictide superconductors generated great interest as the structure consists of planes of a magnetic material quite similar to the cuprate superconductors. Fe(Te0.5Se0.5) is a particularly simple system whose planes…
