Spin injection and detection in silicon is a difficult problem, in part because the weak spin-orbit coupling and indirect gap preclude using standard optical techniques. We propose two ways to overcome this difficulty, and illustrate their…

Twisted coronal loops should be ubiquitous in the solar corona. Twisted magnetic fields contain excess magnetic energy, which can be released during magnetic reconnection, causing solar flares. The aim of this work is to investigate…
Rotons can exist in ultracold atomic gases either with long-range interactions or with spin-orbitcoupled dispersions. We find that two different kinds of rotons coexist in a joint system combining long-range interactions and spin-orbit…
