For two states of opposite parity that cross as a function of an external magnetic field, the addition of an electric field will break the symmetry and induce an avoided crossing. A suitable arrangement of fields may be used to create a…
In a composite superconductor in uniform rotation, the London field strength at equilibrium is given by the usual expression B_L = 2m Omega/e; here m corresponds to the bare electron mass, although the effective mass m* can be different in…
