Orbital effect and weak localization in the longitudinal magnetoresistance of Weyl semimetals NbP, NbAs, TaP, and TaAs

Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Maja Deborah Bachmann

Weyl semimetals such as the TaAs family (TaAs, TaP, NbAs, NbP) host quasiparticle excitations resemblingthe long-sought-after Weyl fermions at special band-crossing points in the band structure denoted as Weylnodes. They are predicted to exhibit a negative ...

Koopmans-Compliant Functionals and Potentials and Their Application to the GW100 Test Set

Nicola Marzari, Nicola Colonna, Ngoc Linh Nguyen, Andrea Ferretti

Koopmans-compliant (KC) functionals have been shown to provide accurate spectral properties through a generalized condition of piecewise linearity of the total energy as a function of the fractional addition/removal of an electron to/from any orbital. We a ...

Stability of standing waves for a nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation with delta potentials

François Samer Genoud

In this paper, we study local well-posedness and orbital stability of standing waves for a singularly perturbed one-dimensional nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation. We first establish local well-posedness of the Cauchy problem by a fixed point argument. Unlike ...

Hallmarks of Hunds coupling in the Mott insulator Ca2RuO4

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Marco Grioni, Johan Juul Chang, Simon Karl Moser, Gianmarco Gatti, Claudia Giuseppina Fatuzzo

A paradigmatic case of multi-band Mott physics including spin-orbit and Hund's coupling is realized in Ca2RuO4. Progress in understanding the nature of this Mott insulating phase has been impeded by the lack of knowledge about the low-energy electronic str ...

Spin and orbital disordering by hole doping in Pr1-xCaxVO3

Philip Pattison

High-resolution powder x-ray diffraction and single-crystal neutron diffraction were used to investigate the crystal structure and magnetic ordering of the compound Pr1-xCax VO3 (0

GNSS-Based Navigation for Lunar Missions

Vincenzo Capuano

Numerous applications, not only Earth-based, but also space-based, have strengthened the interest of the international scientific community in using Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs) as navigation systems for space missions that require good accu ...

Orbital textures and charge density waves in transition metal dichalcogenides

Helmuth Berger

Low-dimensional electron systems, as realized in layered materials, often tend to spontaneously break the symmetry of the underlying nuclear lattice by forming so-called density waves(1); a state of matter that at present attracts enormous attention(2-6). ...

TCV heating and in-vessel upgrades for addressing DEMO physics issues

Ambrogio Fasoli

TCV is presently undergoing major heating upgrades, installing a neutral beam for direct ion heating and increasing the electron cyclotron(EC) power injected in X-mode at the third harmonic(X3). The neutral beam is under construction at BINP-Plasma LLC(Rus ...

Hybrid guiding-centre/full-orbit simulations in non-axisymmetric magnetic geometry exploiting general criterion for guiding-centre accuracy

Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper, David Pfefferlé

To identify under what conditions guiding-centre or full-orbit tracing should be used, an estimation of the spatial variation of the magnetic field is proposed, not only taking into account gradient and curvature terms but also parallel currents and the lo ...
