Topological features of low dimensional superconductors have caused a lot of excitement recently because of their broad range of applications in quantum information and their potential to reveal novel phases of quantum matter. A potential…
History-dependence and ageing are studied in the low-temperature glass phase of a long-range periodic Josephson array. This model is characterized by two parameters, the number of wires ($2N$) and the flux per unit strip ($\alpha$); in the…
Quasi-one-dimensional superconductors or nanowires exhibit a transition into a nonsuperconducting regime, as their diameter shrinks. We present measurements on ultrashort nanowires (~40-190 nm long) in the vicinity of this quantum…
In a system of interacting thin rigid rods of equal length $2 \ell$ on a two-dimensional grid of lattice spacing $a$, we show that there are multiple phase transitions as the coupling strength $\kappa=\ell/a$ and the temperature are varied.…
In this paper, we report new insight into a symmetry-breaking phenomenon that occurs for turbulent flow in periodic porous media composed of cylindrical solid obstacles with circular cross-section. We have used Large Eddy Simulation to…
Spontaneous symmetry breaking in statistical mechanics primarily occurs during phase transitions at the thermodynamic limit where the Hamiltonian preserves inversion symmetry, yet the low-temperature free energy exhibits reduced symmetry.…
This chapter presents a literature review of the serrated flow phenomenon in high-entropy alloys (HEAs). The serrated flow is important as it can result in permanent macroscopic and microstructural changes in HEAs. The literature reveals…
An ergodic system subjected to an external periodic drive will be generically heated to infinite temperature. However, if the applied frequency is larger than the typical energy scale of the local Hamiltonian, this heating stops during a…
We study phase slips in one-dimensional topological superconducting wires. These wires have been proposed as building blocks for topologically protected qubits in which the quantum information is distributed over the length of the device…
The effect of temperature on friction and slip at the liquid-solid interface has attracted attention over the last twenty years, both numerically and experimentally. However, the role of temperature on slip close to the glass transition has…
We consider a 3D homogeneous superfluid at low temperature $T$ with 2 types of excitations, gapless phonons with a linear dispersion relation at low wavenumber, and gapped quasiparticles with a quadratic dispersion relation around extrema.…
The phenomenon of spontaneous synchronization arises in a broad range of systems when the mutual interaction strength among components overcomes the effect of detuning. Recently it has been studied also in the quantum regime with a variety…
We initiate the study of gravitational wave (GW) signals from first-order phase transitions in supersymmetry-breaking hidden sectors. Such phase transitions often occur along a pseudo-flat direction universally related to supersymmetry…
Significant progress in manipulating heat diffusion has been achieved with the advent of non-Hermitian physics and topology. However, previous studies on diffusive systems have primarily concentrated on isolated cases, where fields decay…
The conditions of stability of the superfluid phase in double layer systems with pairing of spatially separated electrons and holes in the low density limit are studied. The general expression for the collective excitation spectrum is…
I study the effect of quantum and thermal phase fluctuations on the in-plane and c-axis superfluid stiffness of layered d-wave superconductors. First, I show that quantum phase fluctuations in the superconductor can be damped in the…
The origin of the exceptionally strong superconductivity of cuprates remains a subject of debate after more than two decades of investigation. Here we follow a new lead: The onset temperature for superconductivity scales with the strength…
We simulate the decay of isolated, spherically symmetric droplets in a cosmological phase transition. It has long been posited that such heated droplets of the metastable state could form, and they have recently been observed in 3D…
The thermo-mechanical effect in superfluid helium is used to create an initial chemical potential difference, $\Delta \mu_0$, across a solid $^4$He sample. This $\Delta \mu_0$ causes a flow of helium atoms from one reservoir filled with…
We suggest an experimentally feasible procedure to observe paired and counterflow superfluidity in ultra-cold atom systems. We study the time evolution of one-dimensional mixtures of bosonic atoms in an optical lattice following an abrupt…
