Critical current was recently measured near the transition from 0 to $\pi$-contact in superconductor/ferromagnet/superconductor Josephson junctions. Contrary to expectations, it does not vanish at the transition point. It shows instead a…
We study analytically an underdamped current-biased topological Josephson junction. First, we consider a simplified model at zero temperature, where the parity of the non-local fermionic state formed by Majorana bound states (MBSs)…
The article in \cite{HolmlidAIPA2016} has recently come to our attention. It makes a number of extraordinary claims that each contradict well established facts in several fields, ranging from atomic and molecular physics to…
It has been shown that the dependence of thermal expansion coefficient and of the isobaric heat capacity of supercooled water on the temperature contradicts to an important thermodynamic relation. Keywords: Supercooled water, Negative…

We study the stationary Josephson effect for neutral fermions across the BCS-BEC crossover, by solving numerically the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations at zero temperature. The Josephson current is found to be considerably enhanced for all…
At zero temperature, a Josephson junction coupled to an ohmic environment displays a quantum phase transition between superconducting and insulating phases, depending whether the resistance of the environment is below or above the…
A superconductor/normal metal/superconductor Josephson junction is a coherent electron system where the thermodynamic entropy depends on temperature and phase difference across the weak-link. Here, exploiting the phase-temperature…
A new picture of the Josephson effect is devised. The radio-frequency (RF) signal, observed in a Josephson junction, is shown to stem from bound electrons, tunneling periodically through the insulating film. This holds also for the…
A quantitative analysis of a microscopic model for the intrinsic Josephson effect in high-temperature superconductors based on interlayer tunneling is presented. The pairing correlations in the CuO_2-planes are modelled by a 2-D…
We have measured the low frequency critical current noise in Nb/AlO$_{\mathrm{x}}$/Nb Josephson junctions. Unshunted junctions biased above the gap voltage and resistively shunted junctions biased near the critical current, $I_{c}$, have…
We measured the critical temperatures and critical switching and retrapping currents of wide and narrow thin-film quasi-one-dimensional superconducting aluminum structures of the same thickness in zero magnetic field. For the first time, we…
We reply to the comment [arXiv:0903.5110] on our paper "Mechanism of Terahertz Electromagnetic Emission from Intrinsic Josephson Junctions" [arXiv:0810.5268].

A recent Science Advances paper by Schilling et al, claiming "flow of heat from cold to hot without intervention" with "oscillatory thermal inertia" are fundamentally misplaced and dramatized as miraculous, even though compliance with the…
When a small system is coupled to a bath, it is generally assumed that the state of the bath remains unaffected by the system due to the bath's large number of degrees of freedom. Here we show theoretically that this assumption can be…
We have examined the dependence of the shell correction to the nuclear liquid drop energy at finite excitations on the excitation energy (temperature). For this we have calculated the shell correction to the energy and free energy in very…
The investigation of the switching current probability distribution of a Josephson junction is a conventional tool to gain information on the phase slips dynamics as a function of the temperature. Here we adopt this well-established…
Phase coherence and vortex order in a Josephson-junction array at irrational frustration are studied by extensive Monte Carlo simulations using the parallel tempering method. A scaling analysis of the correlation length of phase variables…
A temperature gradient ${\Delta}T$ across a Josephson junction induces a thermoelectric current. We predict the AC Josephson effect is activated when this current surpasses the junction's critical current. Our investigation of this…
