We examine in detail the theory of the intrinsic non-linearities in the dynamics of trapped ions due to the Coulomb interaction. In particular the possibility of mode-mode coupling, which can be a source of decoherence in trapped ion…
Topological insulators are materials where current does not flow through the bulk, but along the boundaries, only. They are of particular practical importance, since it is considerably more difficult, by ``conventional'' means, to affect…
Finite size effects can lead neutrally buoyant particles to exhibit different dynamics than tracer particles, and can alter their transport properties in fluid flows. Here we investigate the effect of the particle's shape on their…
In this note we investigate the impact of some "new-physics", beyond the electro-weak Standard Model of elementary particles, on the Higgs vacuum. We consider both un-particle and quantum gravity induced effects. We find that even if the…
