Quantum critical scaling

The study of quantum matter has become a great part of modern physics research. Quantum criticality appears in the vicinity of a quantum critical point where there is an interplay between quantum and thermal fluctuations. In the quantum critical region, ’e ...

Helium-induced electronic transitions in photo-excited Ba+–Hen exciplexes

Marcel Drabbels

The possibility for helium-induced electronic transitions in a photo-excited atom is investigated using Ba+ excited to the 6p 2P state as a prototypical example. A diabatization scheme has been designed to obtain the necessary potential energy surfaces and ...

Time-Reversal Symmetry Breaking in Re-Based Superconductors

Joël Mesot, Johan Juul Chang

To trace the origin of time-reversal symmetry breaking (TRSB) in Re-based superconductors, we performed comparative muon-spin rotation and relaxation (mu SR) studies of superconducting noncentrosymmetric Re0.82Nb0.18 (T-c = 8.8 K) and centrosymmetric Re (T ...

Nodeless superconductivity in the noncentrosymmetric Mo3Rh2N superconductor: A mu SR study

Joël Mesot

The noncentrosymmetric superconductor Mo3Rh2N, with T-c = 4.6 K, adopts a beta-Mn-type structure (space group P4(1)32), similar to that of Mo3Al2C. Its bulk superconductivity was characterized by magnetization and heat-capacity measurements, while its micr ...

Breakdown of the Wiedemann-Franz law in a unitary Fermi gas

Jean-Philippe Brantut, Samuel Häusler

We report on coupled heat and particle transport measurements through a quantum point contact (QPC) connecting two reservoirs of resonantly interacting, finite temperature Fermi gases. After heating one of them, we observe a particle current flowing from c ...

Understanding turbulent free-surface vortex flows using a Taylor-Couette flow analogy

Giovanni De Cesare

Free-surface vortices have long been studied to develop an understanding of similar rotating flow phenomena observed in nature and technology. However, a complete description of its turbulent three-dimensional flow field still remains elusive. In contrast, ...

Unsteady hydraulic simulation of the cavitating part load vortex rope in Francis turbines

François Avellan, Arthur Tristan Favrel

For Francis turbines at part load operation a helical vortex rope is formed due to the swirling nature of the flow exiting the runner. This vortex creates pressure fluctuations which can lead to power swings, and the unsteady loading can lead to fatigue da ...

Mastering the statistical properties of microcavity polaritons

Albert Adiyatullin

Microcavity polaritons are hybrid quasiparticles emerging from the strong coupling between quantum well excitons and light in the resonator. Their unique half-light half-matter nature brings in specific properties like low effective mass, nonlinearity due ...

Extending the lifetime of hyperpolarisation

Xiao Ji

In nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), one of the most serious inherent challenges is the low sensibility of nuclei. In order to enhance the signal of NMR experiments, the technique of dynamic nuclear hyperpolarisation (DNP) was introduced in the 1950s, lead ...

Accelerated path integral methods for atomistic simulations at ultra-low temperatures

Michele Ceriotti, Felix Uhl

Path integral methods provide a rigorous and systematically convergent framework to include the quantum mechanical nature of atomic nuclei in the evaluation of the equilibrium properties of molecules, liquids, or solids at finite temperature. Such nuclear ...
