Observation of Phase Controllable Majorana-like Bound States in Metamaterial-based Kitaev Chain Analogues
Kai Qian, David J. Apigo, Karmela Padavić +3
We experimentally demonstrate that Majorana-like bound states (MLBSs) can occur in quasi-one-dimensional metamaterials, analogous to Majorana zero modes (MZM) in the Kitaev chain.…
Vortex-antivortex physics in shell-shaped Bose-Einstein condensates
Karmela Padavić, Kuei Sun, Courtney Lannert +1
Shell-shaped hollow Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) exhibit behavior distinct from their filled counterparts and have recently attracted attention due to their potential realizati…
Topological phases, edge modes, and the Hofstadter butterfly in coupled Su-Schrieffer-Heeger systems
Karmela Padavić, Suraj S Hegde, Wade DeGottardi +1
Motivated by recent experimental realizations of topological edge states in Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) chains, we theoretically study a ladder system whose legs are comprised of tw…
Static and dynamic properties of shell-shaped condensates
Kuei Sun, Karmela Padavić, Frances Yang +2
Static, dynamic, and topological properties of hollow systems differ from those that are fully filled as a result of the presence of a boundary associated with an inner surface. Ho…
Physics of hollow Bose-Einstein condensates
Karmela Padavić, Kuei Sun, Courtney Lannert +1
Bose-Einstein condensate shells, while occurring in ultracold systems of coexisting phases and potentially within neutron stars, have yet to be realized in isolation on Earth due t…
