The four-fermion gravitational interaction is induced by torsion, and gets essential on the Planck scale. On this scale, the axial-axial contribution dominates strongly in the discussed interaction. The energy-momentum tensor, generated by…
One-dimensional atomic mixtures of fermions can effectively realize spin chains and thus constitute a clean and controllable platform to study quantum magnetism. Such strongly correlated quantum systems are also of sustained interest to…
Recently we have shown that a one-parameter scaling, the Coherence Temperature, describes the physical behavior of several heavy fermions in a region of their phase diagram. In this paper we fully characterize this region, obtaining the…

The interaction of fermion spin with spacetime can be non-universal, leading to a new interaction beyond the Standard Model, independent of gravitation. Fermions generate spacetime torsion, which can be integrated out in favor of a…
