We study the possible penetration of a static magnetic field in an idealized sample of many layers supporting a two dimensional charged chiral quantum fluid, to see whether there is a kind of Meissner effect. This is a non standard problem…
Free energy of a layered superconductor with $\xi_{\perp} < d$ is calculated in a parallel magnetic field by means of the Gor'kov equations, where $\xi_{\perp}$ is a coherence length perpendicular to the layers and $d$ is an inter-layer…
Extremal black holes tend to expel magnetic and electric fields. Fields are unable to reach the horizon because the length of the black hole throat blows up in the extremal limit. The length of the throat is related to the amount of…

The expulsion of axisymmetric magnetic field from the event horizons of rapidly rotating black holes has been seen as an astrophysically important effect that may significantly reduce or even nullify the efficiency of the Blandford-Znajek…
We analytically sutdy the effect of external magnetic field in a Holographic superconductor by using Sturm-Liouville method. We estimate the coefficient of proportionality at critical temperature and find its denpendence on external…
The London moment is the magnetic moment acquired by a rotating superconductor. We propose that the London moment reveals the following fundamental properties of the superconducting state: (i) superconductors (unlike normal metals) know the…
We notice some beautiful geometrical defects found in liquid crystals, and explain them by imposing a constraint. We study the way constraints can occur, and introduce the concept of massive fields. We develop the theory of magnetic field…
Superconductivity is a phenomenon where electrical current flows without friction. The current standard theory for it is the BCS (Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer) theory, which explains it as due to the energy gap formation by the…
Dirac electrons in solids show characteristic physical properties due to their linear dispersion relation and two-band nature. Although the transport phenomena of Dirac electrons in a normal state have intensively been studied, the…
The coupling of a superconductor to a different material often results in a system with unconventional superconducting properties. A conventional superconductor is a perfect diamagnet expelling magnetic fields out of its volume, a…
