Recent publications rule out the negatively charged beta equilibrium strangelets in ordinary phase, and the color-flavor locked (CFL) strangelets are reported to be also positively charged. This letter presents new solutions to the system…
The one-loop polarization function of graphene has been calculated at zero temperature for arbitrary wavevector, frequency, chemical potential (doping), and band gap. The result is expressed in terms of elementary functions and is used to…
We explain how an effective theory of the CFL phase can be used to study the effect of the strange quark mass on the ground state and the excitation spectrum. We also apply the effective theory to the problem of neutrino emission from a CFL…
We consider the motion of a matter-wave bright soliton under the influence of a cloud of thermal particles. In the ideal one-dimensional system, the scattering process of the quasiparticles with the soliton is reflectionless, however, the…
We study a two-dimensional atomic mixture of bosons and fermions cooled into their quantum degenerate states and subject to an optical lattice. The optical lattice provides van Hove singularities in the fermionic density of states. We find…
We have observed momentum- and position-resolved spectra and images of the photoluminescence from thermalised and condensed dye-microcavity photons. The spectra yield the dispersion relation and the potential energy landscape for the…
We explore the physics of a gas of particles interacting with a condensate that spontaneously breaks Lorentz invariance. The equation of state of this gas varies from 1/3 to less than -1 and can lead to the observed cosmic acceleration. The…
Flavons are crucial for understanding lepton mixing in models with non-Abelian discrete symmetries. They also result in charged lepton flavour violation (CLFV) via the couplings with leptons. I emphasise that the flavon-triggered CLFV…
We determine the ground state meson masses at low temperature using simulations with $2+1$ flavours of improved Wilson-clover fermions. Subsequently we study the effect of increasing the temperature of the hadron gas, including the…
The nature of low energy plasmon excitations plays an important role in understanding the low energy electronic properties and coupling mechanism of different superconducting compounds such as CaC$_6$. Recent ab-initio studies predict a…
We study the effects of gauge-field fluctuations on the free energy of a homogeneous color superconductor in the color-flavor-locked (CFL) phase. Gluonic fluctuations induce a strong first-order phase transition, in contrast to electronic…
The feature-rich electronic excitations of monolayer germanene lie in the significant spin-orbital coupling and the buckled structure. The collective and single- particle excitations are diversified by the magnitude and direction of…
Coupled plasmon modes are studied in graded plasmonic waveguides, which are periodic chains of metallic nanoparticles embedded in a host with gradually varying refractive indices. We identify three types of localized modes called "light",…
Plasmons of quark-gluon plasma - gluon collective modes - are systematically studied. The plasma is, in general, non-equilibrium but homogeneous. We consider anisotropic momentum distributions of plasma constituents which are obtained from…
Within the framework of the semiclassical approximation, we derive the Boltzmann equation describing the dynamics of colorless plasmons in a hot QCD plasma. The probability of the plasmon-plasmon scattering at the leading order in the…
Color charge correlations in the proton at moderately small $x\sim 0.1$ are extracted from its light-cone wave function. The charge fluctuations are far from Gaussian and they exhibit interesting dependence on impact parameter and on the…
In weakly interacting quark-gluon plasmas diffusion of color is found to be much slower than the diffusion of spin and flavor because color is easily exchanged by the gluons in the very singular forward scattering processes. If the infrared…
In this study we report our numerical results on finite temperature non-interacting dynamical polarization function, plasmon modes and electron energy loss function of doped single layer gapped graphene within the random phase…
We describe the gluon plasma in zeroth order as a gas of free quasi-particles with a temperature-independent dispersion relation of Gribov type, $E(k) = \sqrt{k^2 + {M^4 \over k^2}}$, that results from the restriction of the physical state…
The low-energy excitations of filled Landau levels (LL's) of electrons involve promotion of a single electron from the topmost filled LL to the lowest empty LL. These are called excitons or collective modes. The incompressible fractional…
