We reply to a recent comment by Bhattacharya et. al. (cond-mat/9812290) on our previous Letter (PRL 81, 5640 (1998)).
We examine the effects of nonlocal electrodynamics for a d-wave superconductor on the field dependence of the magnetic penetration depth. The linear field dependence predicted in the local limit, commonly known as the nonlinear Meissner…
We examine recent high-precision experimental data on the magnetic field, ${\bf H}$, dependence of the penetration depth $\lambda(H)$ in $\rm{YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-\delta}}$ (YBCO) for several field directions in the $a-b$ plane. In a new…
The angular dependence of the nonlinear transverse magnetic moment of untwinned high-quality single crystals of optimally doped YBCO have been studied at a temperature of 2.5K using a low frequency AC technique. The absence of any signature…
We consider the nonlinear transverse magnetic moment that arises in the Meissner state of superconductors with strongly anisotropic order parameter. We compute this magnetic moment as a function of applied field and geometry, assuming…
It is shown that a recent attempt to derive the Meissner effect from first principles in a model field theory is invalid.
In the paper by M. Hotta and M. Morikawa [Phys. Rev. A 69, 052114 (2004)] the non-existence of the quantum Zeno effect caused by indirect measurements has been claimed. It is shown here that the pertinent proof is incorrect, and the claim…
A long-standing theoretical prediction is that in clean, nodal unconventional superconductors the magnetic penetration depth $\lambda$, at zero temperature, varies linearly with magnetic field. This non-linear Meissner effect is an equally…
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…
Nonlinear and nonlocal effects are discussed in the interaction of laser fields with thermal Rydberg atoms in electromagnetically induced transparency configuration. We show that under the crucial approximation that the time variation in…
We discuss Chiral Magnetic Effect from quantum theory of measurements point of view for non-stationary measurements. The effect of anisotropy for fluctuations of electric currents in magnetic field is addressed. It is shown that anisotropy…
We give explicit criteria for the reflectionlessness, transparency, and invisibility of a finite-range potential in the presence of an incoherent (intensity-dependent) nonlinearity that is confined to the range of the potential. This allows…
Nonlocal measurement, or instantaneous measurement of nonlocal observables, is a considerably difficult task even for a simple form of product observable since relativistic causality prohibits interaction between spacelike separate…
In a recent Letter, Fauque et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 197001 (2006)] reported the detection of a novel magnetic order in YBCO near the pseudogap transition temperature T*. They remark that this magnetic order has not been clearly…
We study the effect of the magnon-magnon interaction on the nonlinear magnon transport. The magnonmagnon interaction induces nonreciprocal magnon decay when the time-reversal symmetry is broken and leads to nonlinear thermal responses of…
In this article, we review the history, current status, physical mechanisms, experimental methods, and applications of nonlinear magneto-optical effects in atomic vapors. We begin by describing the pioneering work of Macaluso and Corbino…
Recent theories of the NMR in the CuO superconductors are based on a spin-singlet $d_{x^2-y^2}$ order parameter. Since this state has nodal lines on the Fermi surface, nonlinear effects associated with low-energy quasiparticles become…
We examine the long-wavelength current response in anisotropic superconductors and show how the field-dependence of the Meissner penetration length can be used to detect the structure of the order parameter. Nodes in the excitation gap lead…
The appearance of a Hall conductance necessarily requires breaking of time-reversal symmetry, either by an external magnetic field or by the internal magnetization of a material. However, as a second response, Hall dissipationless…
The Landau problem for inhomogeneous magnetic fields is examined in a very general context and several interesting analogies with the Nielsen-Olesen vortices are established. Firstly we show that the Landau problem with non-homogeneous…
