Total vacuum energy of some quantized fields in conical space with additional boundary conditions is calculated. These conditions are imposed on a cylindrical surface which is coaxial with the symmetry axis of conical space. The explicit…

Topological quantum matter exhibits a range of exotic phenomena when enriched by subdimensional symmetries. This includes new features beyond those that appear in the conventional setting of global symmetry enrichment. A recently discovered…

Supersymmetry is an algebraic property of a quantum Hamiltonian that, by giving every boson a fermionic superpartner and vice versa, may underpin physics beyond the Standard Model. Fractional bosonic and fermionic quasiparticles are…

At small but supercritical Rayleigh numbers, simulations of dynamos in spherical shells often separate into two broad regimes characterised either by their relative magnetic field strength (weak/strong) or by their dominant force balance…

Any viable stellarator reactor will need to be nearly omnigenous, meaning the radial guiding-center drift velocity averages to zero over time for all particles. While omnigenity is easier to achieve than quasisymmetry, we show here that…

Quasi-axisymmetric stellarators are the stellarator analogue of the axisymmetric tokamak, retaining many of its favorable confinement properties, its compacity and its relative coil simplicity, while avoiding its principal limitation, the…

This article presents an overview of quasineutral limits in plasma models. Starting from the Vlasov-Poisson system, it explains the role of the Debye length, the emergence of a kinetic incompressibility constraint, and the stability issues…

Ultracold quasineutral plasmas generated in the laboratory are generically inhomogeneous and ex- hibit small charge imbalances. As will be demonstrated, via a hydrodynamic theory as well as microscopic simulations, the latter lead to…

The equilibrium magnetic field inside axisymmetric plasmas with inversions on the toroidal current density is studied. Structurally stable non-nested magnetic surfaces are considered. For any inversion in the internal current density the…

We show that in perfectly quasi-isodynamic magnetic fields, which are generally non-quasisymmetric and which can approximate fields of experimental interest, neoclassical calculations can be carried out analytically more completely than in…

Magnetic quasi-particles in hot QCD predict Casimir scaling for the tension $\sigma$ of spatial Wilson loops. Recently this scaling has been verified on the lattice to 1--2% precision. We review how spatial loops tell us about the nature of…

I briefly discuss three phenomena arising in recent work where the realization of symmetries in quantum mechanics is unusual. The first of these is, I believe, the very simplest realization of non-trivial confinement by a mechanism of…

In quasi-one- or quasi-two-dimensional traps with strong transverse confinements, quantum gases behave like strictly one- or two-dimensional systems at large length scales. However, at short distance, the two-body scattering intrinsically…

The interaction of two electrons and two positrons in the field of two strong pulsed laser waves outside the framework of the dipole approximation (with an accuracy of relativistic corrections ) has been studied theoretically. The…

A transitional layer matching the asymptotically flat exterior of a charged, massive toroidal body to an interior with spatially cylindrical symmetry is described. The changes in the geometry, which by themselves would require an energy…

We discuss the effect of a strong magnetic field in the behavior of the symmetry of an electrically neutral electroweak plasma. We analyze the case of a strong field and low temperatures as compared with the W rest energy. If the magnetic…

This chapter takes a microscopic view of quantum tunneling of magnetization (QTM) in single-molecule magnets (SMMs), focusing on the interplay between exchange and anisotropy. Careful consideration is given to the relationship between…

Multi species turbulence in inhomogeneous magnetised plasmas is found to exhibit symmetry breaking in the dynamical alignment of a third species with the fluctuating electron density and vorticity with respect to the magnetic field…

We give a semiclassical interpretation of the mass asymmetry in the fission of heavy nuclei. Using only a few classical periodic orbits and a cavity model for the nuclear mean field, we reproduce the onset of left-right asymmetric shapes at…

Features below the first conductance plateau in ballistic quantum point contacts (QPCs) are often ascribed to electron interaction and spin effects within the single mode limit. In QPCs with a highly asymmetric geometry, we observe sharp…
