We consider a modified version of the coproduct for $\U(\su_q(2))$ and show that in the limit when $q \rightarrow 1$, there exists an essentially non-cocommutative coproduct. We study the implications of this non-cocommutativity for a…
We experimentally investigate the quantum motion of an impurity atom that is immersed in a strongly interacting one-dimensional Bose liquid and is subject to an external force. We find that the momentum distribution of the impurity exhibits…
A transmon qubit embedded in a high-impedance environment acts in a way dual to a conventional Josephson junction. In analogy to the AC Josephson effect, biasing of the transmon by a direct current leads to the oscillations of voltage…

The collective plasmonic modes of a metal comprise a pattern of charge density and tightly-bound electric fields that oscillate in lock-step to yield enhanced light-matter interaction. Here we show that metals with non-zero Hall…
We introduce the quantum mechanical formalism for treating surface plasmon polariton scattering at an interface. Our developed theory - which is fundamentally different from the analogous photonic scenario - is used to investigate the…
Plasmons are elementary quantum excitations of conducting materials with Fermi surfaces. In two dimensions they may carry a static dipole moment that is transverse to their momentum which is quantum geometric in nature, the quantum…

When a plasmonic particle is subject to a static magnetic field, ${B}_{\rm dc}=B_{0} \hat{z}$, its gyrotropic response gives rise to nonreciprocal dynamics of the entire ambient surroundings. This dynamics depends on the particle's…
