Non-monotonic pressure dependence of high-field nematicity and magnetism in CeRhIn5

Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Kent Robert Shirer

CeRhIn5 provides a textbook example of quantum criticality in a heavy fermion system: Pressure suppresses local-moment antiferromagnetic (AFM) order and induces superconductivity in a dome around the associated quantum critical point (QCP) near p(c) approx ...

Carving out OPE space and precise O(2) model critical exponents

Alessandro Vichi, Ning Su

We develop new tools for isolating CFTs using the numerical bootstrap. A "cutting surface" algorithm for scanning OPE coefficients makes it possible to find islands in high-dimensional spaces. Together with recent progress in large-scale semidefinite progr ...

Unraveling reaction-diffusion-like dynamics in urban congestion propagation: Insights from a large-scale road network

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Leonardo Bellocchi

We study the dynamical process of congestion formation for large-scale urban networks by exploring a unique dataset of taxi movements in a megacity. We develop a dynamic model based on a reaction and a diffusion term that properly reproduces the cascade ph ...

Resistivity of REBCO tapes in overcritical current regime: impact on superconducting fault current limiter modeling

Francesco Grilli, Nicolo' Riva, Frédéric Sirois, Bertrand Dutoit

A detailed knowledge of the resistivity of high-temperature superconductors in the overcritical current regime is important to achieve reliable numerical simulations of applications such as superconducting fault current limiters. We have previously shown t ...

Self-similar invariant solution in the near-wall region of a turbulent boundary layer at asymptotically high Reynolds numbers

Tobias Schneider, Sajjad Azimi

At sufficiently high Reynolds numbers, shear-flow turbulence close to a wall acquires universal properties. When length and velocity are rescaled by appropriate characteristic scales of the turbulent flow and thereby measured in inner units, the statistica ...

Quantum Critical Regime in a Quadratically Driven Nonlinear Photonic Lattice

Vincenzo Savona, Fabrizio Minganti, Riccardo Rota, Cristiano Ciuti

We study an array of coupled optical cavities in the presence of two-photon driving and dissipation. The system displays a critical behavior similar to that of a quantum Ising model at finite temperature. Using the corner-space renormalization method, we c ...

Dynamics of fracturing saturated porous media and self-organization of rupture

Enrico Milanese, Carlo Peruzzo

Analytical solutions and a vast majority of numerical ones for fracture propagation in saturated porous media yield smooth behavior while experiments, field observations and a few numerical solutions reveal stepwise crack advancement and pressure oscillati ...

Quantum phase transitions beyond Landau-Ginzburg theory in one-dimensional space revisited

The phase diagram of the quantum spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic J(1)-J(2) XXZ chain was obtained by Haldane using bosonization techniques [Haldane, Phys. Rev. B 25, 4925 (1982); 26, 5257 (1982)]. It supports three distinct phases for 0

Critical fluctuations in the spin-orbit Mott insulator Sr3Ir2O7

X-ray magnetic critical scattering measurements and specific heat measurements were performed on the perovskite iridate Sr3Ir2O7. We find that the magnetic interactions close to the Neel temperature T-N = 283.4(2) K are three-dimensional. This contrasts wi ...

The conformal bootstrap: Theory, numerical techniques, and applications

Alessandro Vichi

Conformal field theories have been long known to describe the fascinating universal physics of scale invariant critical points. They describe continuous phase transitions in fluids, magnets, and numerous other materials, while at the same time sit at the h ...
