Bound-states of particles are an interesting problem in quantum mechanics dating back to 1931 Bethe's solution of spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain. These exotic composite states are realized in quantum magnets and are detectable in inelastic neutron scattering (I ...

A quantum magnetic analogue to the critical point of water

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Frédéric Mila, Bruce Normand, Ellen Fogh, Ludger Weber, Mohamed Zayed, Julio Antonio Larrea Jiménez, Kazimierz Conder

At the liquid-gas phase transition in water, the density has a discontinuity at atmospheric pressure; however, the line of these first-order transitions defined by increasing the applied pressure terminates at the critical point(1), a concept ubiquitous in ...

Optoelectronic and magnetic properties induced by atomic defects in two-dimensional semiconductors

Alessio Scavuzzo

Two-dimensional (2D) materials have attracted increasing attention over the last decade owing to their remarkable mechanical, electrical and optical properties. Following the groundbreaking discovery of graphene, a plethora of other atomically-thin materia ...

Towards a non-perturbative approach to the Hierarchy problem

Andrey Shkerin

In this report, based on [1], we suggest that the hierarchy between the Electroweak (EW) and the Planck scales can emerge due to a nonperturbative effect that relates low-energy and strong-gravity physics. In this mechanism, the EW scale results from an ex ...

Universe and Matter Conjectured as a 3-Dimensional Lattice with Topological Singularities

Gérard Gremaud

One fundamental problem of modern physics is the search for a theory of everything able to explain the nature of space-time, what matter is and how matter interacts. There are various propositions, as Grand Unified Theory, Quantum Gravity, Supersymmetry, S ...

Strong Higgs interactions at a linear collider

Riccardo Rattazzi, Duccio Pappadopulo, Roberto Contino, Andrea Thamm

We study the impact of Higgs precision measurements at a high-energy and high-luminosity linear electron positron collider, such as CLIC or the ILC, on the parameter space of a strongly interacting Higgs boson. Some combination of anomalous couplings are a ...

Matrix product state applications for the ALPS project

Thierry Giamarchi, Timothée Ewart, Sébastien Keller

The density-matrix renormalization group method has become a standard computational approach to the low-energy physics as well as dynamics of low-dimensional quantum systems. In this paper, we present a new set of applications, available as part of the ALP ...
