Teaching about non-deterministic physics: an almost forgotten fundamental contribution of Marie Curie

The first historical steps of radioactivity research offer an excellent opportunity to teach a key concept of modern physics: non-deterministic phenomena. However, this opportunity is often wasted because of historical misconceptions and of the irrational ...

Scale invariant Einstein-Cartan gravity and flat space conformal symmetry

Georgios Karananas, Sebastian Zell

We find the conditions under which scale-invariant Einstein-Cartan gravity with scalar matter fields leads to an approximate conformal invariance of the flat space particle theory up to energies of the order of the Planck mass. In the minimal setup, these ...

Many-Body Self-Interaction and Polarons

Alfredo Pasquarello, Stefano Falletta

We address the many-body self-interaction in relation to polarons in density functional theory. Our study provides (i) a unified theoretical framework encompassing many-body and one-body forms of self-interaction and (ii) an efficient semilocal scheme for ...

Feebly-Interacting Particles:FIPs 2020 Workshop Report

Lesya Shchutska, Alexey Boyarsky, Oleg Ruchayskiy, Marco Drewes, Martin Bauer

With the establishment and maturation of the experimental programs searching for new physics with sizeable couplings at the LHC, there is an increasing interest in the broader particle and astrophysics community for exploring the physics of light and feebl ...

Theory-based scaling laws of near and far scrape-off layer widths in single-null L-mode discharges

Paolo Ricci, Holger Reimerdes, Jan Horacek, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui, Maurizio Giacomin, Adriano Stagni

Theory-based scaling laws of the near and far scrape-off layer (SOL) widths are analytically derived for L-mode diverted tokamak discharges by using a two-fluid model. The near SOL pressure and density decay lengths are obtained by leveraging a balance amo ...

Parametrized classifiers for optimal EFT sensitivity

Andrea Wulzer, Alfredo Glioti, Siyu Chen

We study unbinned multivariate analysis techniques, based on Statistical Learning, for indirect new physics searches at the LHC in the Effective Field Theory framework. We focus in particular on high-energy ZW production with fully leptonic decays, modeled ...

Axiomatic scale theory

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Daniel Harasim

Scales are a fundamental concept of musical practice around the world. They commonly exhibit symmetry properties that are formally studied using cyclic groups in the field of mathematical scale theory. This paper proposes an axiomatic framework for mathema ...

Tracing power in transdisciplinary sustainability research: an exploration

Franziska Meinherz, Livia Bianca Fritz

Power is involved when researchers and practitioners work together in transdisciplinary sustainability research. Among other things, this has implications regarding who gets to decide which research questions are dealt with and which partners are involved, ...

Emergent dual topology in the three-dimensional Kane-Mele Pt2HgSe3

Nicola Marzari, Marco Gibertini, Antimo Marrazzo

Recently, the very first large-gap Kane-Mele quantum spin Hall insulator was predicted to be monolayer jacutingaite (Pt2HgSe3), a naturally occurring exfoliable mineral discovered in Brazil in 2008. The stacking of quantum spin Hall monolayers into a van-d ...
