Optimal speed-up of multi-step Pontus-Mpemba protocols
Marco Peluso, Reinhold Egger, Andrea Nava
The classical Mpemba effect is the counterintuitive phenomenon where hotter water freezes faster than colder water due to the breakdown of Newton's law of cooling after a sudden te…

Angular-momentum-selective nanofocusing with Weyl semimetals
Marco Peluso, Alessandro De Martino, Reinhold Egger +1
We investigate the theory of surface plasmon polaritons on a magnetic Weyl semimetal conical tip. We show that the axion term in the effective electrodynamics modifies the surface…

Nonreciprocal Weyl semimetal waveguide
Marco Peluso, Alessandro De Martino, Reinhold Egger +1
We study a cylindrical plasmonic waveguide consisting of a magnetic Weyl semimetal embedded in a dielectric medium. We determine the dispersion relation of the surface plasmon pola…
