From Bloch Oscillations to a Steady-State Current in Strongly Biased Mesoscopic Devices

J. M. Alendouro Pinho, J. P. Santos Pires, Simão M. João +2

It has long been known that quantum particles moving in a periodic lattice and subject to a constant force field undergo an oscillatory motion that is referred to as Bloch Oscillat…

Strongly coupled magnon-plasmon polaritons in graphene- 2D ferromagnet heterostructures

A. T. Costa, M. I. Vasilevskiy, J. Fernández-Rossier +1

Magnons and plasmons are two very different types of collective modes, acting on the spin and charge degrees of freedom, respectively. At first sight, the formation of hybrid plasm…

Model-based cross-correlation search for gravitational waves from the low-mass X-ray binary Scorpius X-1 in LIGO O3 data

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1692

We present the results of a model-based search for continuous gravitational waves from the low-mass X-ray binary Scorpius X-1 using LIGO detector data from the third observing run…

Theory of triangulene two-dimensional crystals

R. Ortiz, G. Catarina, J. Fernández-Rossier

Equilateral triangle-shaped graphene nanoislands with a lateral dimension of benzene rings are known as triangulenes. Individual triangulenes are open-shell molecules…

Excitonic instability in transition metal dichalcogenides

M. F. C. Martins Quintela, A. T. Costa, N. M. R. Peres

When transition-metal dichalcogenide monolayers lack inversion symmetry, their low-energy single particle spectrum can described by tilted massive Dirac Hamiltonians. The so-called…

Renormalization-Group Theory of 1D quasiperiodic lattice models with commensurate approximants

Miguel Gonçalves, Bruno Amorim, Eduardo V. Castro +1

We develop a renormalization group (RG) description of the localization properties of onedimensional (1D) quasiperiodic lattice models. The RG flow is induced by increasing the uni…

Multi-field cold and warm inflation and the de Sitter swampland conjectures

Orfeu Bertolami, Paulo M. Sá

We discuss under which conditions multi-field cold and warm inflationary models with canonical kinetic energy terms are compatible with the swampland conjectures about the emergenc…

Anomalous Transport Signatures in Weyl Semimetals with Point Defects

J. P. Santos Pires, Simão M. João, Aires Ferreira +2

We present the first theoretical study of transport properties of Weyl semimetals with point defects. Focusing on a class of time-reversal symmetric Weyl lattice models, we show th…

Nodal vacancy bound states and resonances in three-dimensional Weyl semimetals

J. P. Santos Pires, S. M. João, Aires Ferreira +2

The electronic structure of a cubic -symmetric Weyl semimetal is analysed in the presence of atomic-sized vacancy defects. Isolated vacancies are shown to generate nod…

Quantum kinetic theory of Jeans instability in non-minimal matter-curvature coupling gravity

Cláudio Gomes, Kamel Ourabah

We present a quantum treatment of the Jeans gravitational instability in the Newtonian limit of the non-minimal matter-curvature coupling gravity model. By relying on Wigner functi…

Digital quantum simulation of non-perturbative dynamics of open systems with orthogonal polynomials

José D. Guimarães, Mikhail I. Vasilevskiy, Luís S. Barbosa

Classical non-perturbative simulations of open quantum systems' dynamics face several scalability problems, namely, exponential scaling of the computational effort as a function of…

The Virgo O3 run and the impact of the environment

F. Acernese, M. Agathos, A. Ain +486

Sources of geophysical noise (such as wind, sea waves and earthquakes) or of anthropogenic noise impact ground-based gravitational-wave interferometric detectors, causing transient…

First joint observation by the underground gravitational-wave detector, KAGRA, with GEO600

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1669

We report the results of the first joint observation of the KAGRA detector with GEO600. KAGRA is a cryogenic and underground gravitational-wave detector consisting of a laser inter…

Tunable Excitons in Rhombohedral Trilayer Graphene

M. F. C. Martins Quintela, N. M. R. Peres

Trilayer graphene is receiving an increasing level of attention due to its stacking--dependent magnetoelectric and optoelectric properties, and its more robust ferromagnetism relat…
