New Experiments for Spontaneous Vortex Formation in Josephson Tunnel Junctions
R. Monaco, M. Aaroe, J. Myging +2
It has been argued by Zurek and Kibble that the likelihood of producing defects in a continuous phase transition depends in a characteristic way on the quench rate. In this paper w…
Scaling Laws for Fluxon Formation in Annular Josephson Tunnel Junctions
R. Monaco, R. J. Rivers
It has been argued by Zurek and Kibble that the likelihood of producing defects in a continuous phase transition depends in a characteristic way on the quench rate. In this paper w…
Zurek-Kibble domain structures: The Dynamics of Spontaneous Vortex formation in Annular Josephson Tunnel Junctions
R. Monaco, J. Mygind, R. Rivers
Phase transitions executed in a finite time show a domain structure with defects, that has been argued by Zurek and Kibble to depend in a characteristic way on the quench rate. In…
Testing the Kibble-Zurek Scenario with Annular Josephson Tunnel Junctions
E. Kavoussanaki, R. Monaco, R. J. Rivers
In parallel with Kibble's description of the onset of phase transitions in the early universe, Zurek has provided a simple picture for the onset of phase transitions in condensed m…
The Onset of Phase Transitions in Condensed Matter and Relativistic QFT
R. J. Rivers, E. Kavoussanaki, G. Karra
Kibble and Zurek have provided a unifying causal picture for the appearance of topological defects like cosmic strings or vortices at the onset of phase transitions in relativistic…
Phase Transitions in Condensed Matter and Relativistic QFT
R. J. Rivers
Kibble and Zurek have provided a unifying picture for the onset of phase transitions in relativistic QFT and condensed matter systems respectively, strongly supported by agreement…
