The anomalous transport and thermodynamic properties in the quantum-critical region, in the cuprates, and in the quasi-two dimensional Fe-based superconductors and heavy-fermion compounds, have the same temperature dependences. This can…
Magnetoconductance fluctuations are used to study the effect of an applied bias on an electron billiard. At lower bias, nonlinear effects can be well described by electron heating alone, while at higher bias (V > 2mV, ~5% of the electron…

A model of a ferromagnet is considered, in which there arise mesoscopic fluctuations of paramagnetic phase. The presence of these fluctuations diminishes the magnetization of the ferromagnet, softens the spin-wave spectrum, increases the…
The exchange interaction determines the ferromagnetic (FM) or antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordering of atomic spins. When ferromagnets and antiferromagnets are coupled together, they often exhibit the exchange bias effect, a unidirectional…
Quantum fluctuations in the QED vacuum generate non-linear effects, such as peculiar induced electromagnetic fields. In particular, we show here that an electrically neutral particle, possessing a magnetic dipole moment, develops an induced…
