Topological defects and other properties of multicomponent superconductors

arXiv:2203.12194

Abstract

In recent years, there were a number of experimental developments and discoveries of novel superconducting materials which exhibit multicomponent, many-body degrees of freedom. These superconductors, that are described by several superconducting condensates, feature many new interesting phenomena that are absent in their single-component counterparts. Several of these new aspects of multicomponent superconductivity are addressed in this report.
