We explore the effects of a homogeneous external electric field on the static properties and dynamical behavior of two charged particles confined to a helix. In contrast to the field-free setup which provides a separation of the…
Three properties of the dielectric relaxation in ultra-pure single crystalline H$_{2}$O ice Ih were probed at temperatures between 80-250 K; the thermally stimulated depolarization current, static electrical conductivity, and dielectric…
Starting from a microscopic definition of an alignment vector proportional to the polarization, we discuss the hydrodynamics of polar liquid crystals with local $C_{\infty v}$-symmetry. The free energy for polar liquid crystals differs from…
We present a different approach to the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE), focusing it as a consequence of the change in the symmetry of the Hamiltonian of every electron in a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) under the application of…
We present a detailed numerical study of the one-dimensional Holstein model with a view to understanding the self-trapping process of electrons or excitons in crystals with short-range particle-lattice interactions. Applying a very…
We investigate ionization at a solid-water interface in applied electric field. We attach an electrode to a dielectric film bearing silanol or carboxyl groups with an areal density $\Gamma_0$, where the degree of dissociation $\alpha$ is…
We discuss the problem of proton motion in Hydrogen bond materials with special focus on ice. We show that phenomenological models proposed in the past for the study of ice can be recast in terms of microscopic models in close relationship…
A cascade of phase transitions from square to hexagonal lattice is studied in 2D system of particles interacting via core-softened potential. Due to the presence of two length-scales of repulsion, different local configurations with four,…
Thermodynamic theory is developed for the ferroelectric phase transition of an ultrathin film in equilibrium with a chemical environment that supplies ionic species to compensate its surface. Equations of state and free energy expressions…
The one-body density matrix of weakly interacting, condensed bosons in external potentials is calculated using inhomogeneous Bogoliubov theory. We determine the condensate deformation caused by weak external potentials on the mean-field…
Systems of hard shapes crystallize due to entropy. How is entropy distributed among translational and rotational microscopic contributions? We answer this question by decomposing thermal fluctuation of crystals of hard hexagons into…
We consider the polarization of thermal emission in the near-field of various materials including dielectrics and metallic systems with resonant surface modes. We find that at thermal equilibrium, the degree of polarization exhibits spatial…
We study how the eightfold-degeneracy in the ($\theta_{13},\delta$) plane observed in $\gamma \sim 100$ $\beta$-beams can be reduced by periodically changing the ions in the storage ring. This ``ions cocktail'' allows to change the neutrino…
Using numerical simulations that mimic recent experiments on hexagonal colloidal ice, we show that colloidal hexagonal artificial spin ice exhibits an inner phase within its ice state that has not been observed previously. Under increasing…
Pair creation by a photon in an oriented crystal is considered in a frame of the quasiclassical operator method, which includes processes with polarized particles. Under some quite generic assumptions the general expression is derived for…
We study the ground state of two-dimensional classical electron solids under the influence of modulation-doped impurities by using a simulated annealing molecular dynamics method. By changing the setback distance as a parameter, we find…
Two-dimensional semiconductors inside optical microcavities have emerged as a versatile platform to explore new hybrid light-matter quantum states. The strong light-matter coupling leads to the formation of exciton-polaritons, which in turn…
The orbital motion of electrons in a three-dimensional solid can generate a pseudoscalar magnetoelectric coupling $\theta$, a fact we derive for the single-particle case using a recent theory of polarization in weakly inhomogeneous…
We present an improved model for studying the interactions between dipole moments of water molecules confined in beryl crystals, inspired by recent NMR experiments. Our model is based on a local crystal potential with dihexagonal symmetry…
The (pion) decays controlled by axial anomaly imply the specific entanglement between photons having also the counterparts for classical electromagnetic waves. This is also a specific case of Eisnstein-Podolsky-Rosen-Bohm-Aharonov effect.…
