We analyse the coexistence of superfluid and density wave (stripe) order in a quasi-two-dimensional gas of dipolar fermions aligned by an external field. Remarkably, the anisotropic nature of the dipolar interaction allows for such a…
We investigate active electrolytes within the mean-field level of description. The focus is on how the double-layer structure of passive, thermalized charges is affected by active dynamics of all constituting ions. One feature of active…
The signature of superfluidity in bosonic systems is a sound wave-like spectrum of the single particle excitations which in the case of strong interactions is roughly temperature independent. In fermionic systems, where fermion pairing…
From energy considerations there is reason to expect that the work done by Casimir forces during a slow displacement of the parallel plates reflects the free energy of the surface tension of the adjacent surfaces. We show this explicitly,…

We study mass-imbalanced two-component Fermi mixtures, where one of the components consists of dipolar fermions. We specifically study the mass imbalances corresponding to the atomic ${}^{163}$Dy-${}^{40}$K and ${}^{53}$Cr-${}^{6}$Li…
The separation of solids in adhesive contact, or the fracture of solid bodies, often results in the emission of high energy photons, e.g., visible light and X-rays. This is believed to be related to charge separation. We propose that the…

We discuss the zero temperature phase diagram of a dilute gas with three fermionic species. We make use of solvable limits to conjecture the behavior of the system in the "unitary" regions. The physics of the Thomas-Efimov effect plays a…
