Detailed Fermi-surface structures are essential to describe the upper critical field $H_{c2}$ in type-II superconductors, as first noticed by Hohenberg and Werthamer [Phys. Rev. {\bf 153}, 493 (1967)] and shown explicitly by Butler for…
We calculate leading-order dilepton yields from a quark-gluon plasma which has a time-dependent anisotropy in momentum space. Such anisotropies can arise during the earliest stages of quark-gluon plasma evolution due to the rapid…
Antiferromagnetic or charge density wave fluctuations couple with light through the recently discovered {\pi}-ton contribution to the optical conductivity, and quite generically constitute the dominant vertex corrections in low-dimensional…

The effect of a dynamo-generated mean magnetic field of Beltrami type on the mean electromotive force is studied. In the absence of the mean magnetic field the turbulence is assumed to be homogeneous and isotropic, but it becomes…
