Non-integer optical modes in a Möbius-ring resonator

S. L. Li, L. B. Ma, V. M. Fomin +3

In-plane polarized light experiences a non-trivial topological evolution as it propagates resonantly in a Möbius ring resonator. The resultant geometric phase varies continuously w…

Living on the edge : ground-state selection in quantum spin-ice pyrochlores

Han Yan, Owen Benton, Ludovic D. C. Jaubert +1

The search for new quantum phases, especially in frustrated magnets, is central to modern condensed matter physics. One of the most promising places to look is in rare-earth pyroch…

Particle-based simulations of self-motile suspensions

Denis F. Hinz, Alexander Panchenko, Tae-Yeon Kim +1

A simple model for simulating flows of active suspensions is investigated. The approach is based on dissipative particle dynamics. While the model is potentially applicable to a wi…

Statistics of the work distribution for a quenched Fermi gas

A. Sindona, N. Lo Gullo, J. Goold +1

The local quench of a Fermi gas, giving rise to the Fermi edge singularity and the Anderson orthogonality catastrophe, is a rare example of an analytically tractable out of equilib…

Quantum state transfer in the presence of non homogeneous external potentials

Gian Luca Giorgi, Thomas Busch

Heisenberg-type spin models in the limit of a low number of excitations are useful tools to study basic mechanisms in strongly correlated and magnetic systems. Many of these mechan…
