Results of experiments with liquid 3He immersed in a new type of aerogel are described. This aerogel consists of Al2O3 strands which are nearly parallel to each other, so we call it as a "nematically ordered" aerogel. At all used pressures…

Arguments were recently advanced that hole-doped Ba$_{1-x}$K$_x$Fe$_2$As$_2$ exhibits $s+is$ state at certain doping. Spontaneous breaking of time reversal symmetry in $s+is$ state, dictates that it possess domain wall excitations. Here, we…
We present a simple model of a domain wall in a thin-film ferromagnet. A domain wall is represented as a nonreciprocal string, on which transverse waves propagate with different speeds in opposite directions. The model has three parameters:…
We describe domain walls that live on $A_2$ and $A_3$ singularities. The walls are BPS if the singularity is resolved and non--BPS if it is deformed and fibered. We show that these domain walls may interpolate between vacua that support…
