The possibility of effectively inverting the sign of the dipole-dipole interaction, by fast rotation of the dipole polarization, is examined within a harmonically trapped dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate. Our analysis is based on the…
We present ac susceptibility and specific heat measurements taken on samples of LiHo$_x$Y$_{1-x}$F$_4$ in the dilute limit: x = 0.018, 0.045, 0.080 and 0.12. Susceptibility measurements show glassy behavior including wide absorption spectra…
Recent theoretical and experimental work on solid He-4 has focused on vacancies, or other lattice defects and whether these can form a Bose-Einstein condensate within the solid. The earliest suggestion that this could happen was based on…
Collective actuation describes the spontaneous synchronized oscillations taking place in active solids, when the elasto-active feedback, that generically couples the reorientation of the active forces and the elastic stress, is large…
We investigate the dynamics of a Bose-Einstein condensate interacting with two non-interfering and counterpropagating modes of a ring resonator. Superfluid, supersolid and dynamic phases are identified experimentally and theoretically. The…
The ro--vibrational spectra of molecules dissolved in liquid $^4$He nanodroplets display rotational structure. Where resolved, this structure has been used to determine a temperature that has been assumed to equal that of the intrinsic…
The tensor-virial method is applied for a study of oscillation modes of uniformly rotating Bose-Einstein condensed gases, whose rigid body rotation is supported by an vortex array. The second order virial equations are derived in the…
We introduce a scheme to coherently suppress second-rank tensor frequency shifts in atomic clocks, relying on the continuous rotation of an external magnetic field during the free atomic state evolution in a Ramsey sequence. The method…
The properties of a supersolid state (SS) in quasi-one-dimensional dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate is studied, considering two possible mechanisms of realization - due to repulsive three-body atomic interactions and quantum fluctuations in…
It is now established that glasses feature low-frequency, nonphononic excitations, in addition to phonons that follow Debye's vibrational density of state (VDoS). Extensive computer studies demonstrated that these nonphononic, glassy…
We characterize the mechanical quality factor of micro-oscillators covered by a highly reflective coating. We test an approach to the reduction of mechanical losses, that consists in limiting the size of the coated area to reduce the strain…
The concept of vibrational density of states in glasses has been mirrored in liquids by the instantaneous-normal-mode spectrum. While in glasses instantaneous configurations correspond to minima of the potential-energy hypersurface and all…
The recent torsional oscillator results of Kim and Chan suggest a supersolid phase transition in solid He-4 confined in Vycor. We have used a capacitive technique to directly monitor density changes for helium confined in Vycor at low…
We report on a thorough dielectric investigation of the glass-like freezing of the orbital reorientation-dynamics, recently found for the crystalline sulpho-spinels FeCr2S4 and FeSc2S4. As the orbital reorientations are coupled to a…
We report on experimental investigations of longitudinal collective oscillations in a highly elongated, harmonically trapped two-component Fermi gas with resonantly tuned s-wave interactions ('unitary Fermi gas'). We focus on higher-nodal…
We numerically study dynamical properties of the one-component Gaussian Core Model in the supercooled states. We find that nucleation is suppressed as density increases. Concomitantly the system exhibits glassy slow dynamics characterized…
Rheological properties of chiral active materials have been an important area of research in the recent past, in particular regarding odd terms in their mechanical response. While much progress has been made in the study of odd viscous…
The origin of the dramatic slowdown of dynamics near the glass transition temperature (Tg) remains a long-standing fundamental and unresolved issue in soft condensed matter. While single-molecule (SM) experiments using fluorescent probes…
Glasses have a large excess of low-frequency vibrational modes in comparison with crystalline solids. We show that such a feature is a necessary consequence of the geometry generic to weakly connected solids. In particular, we analyze the…
Using density-functional molecular dynamics simulations we analyzed the cooling-rate effects on the physical properties of GeS$_2$ chalcogenide glasses. Liquid samples were cooled linearly in time according to $T(t) = T_0 - \gamma t$ where…
