The Higgs Mode in Disordered Superconductors Close to a Quantum Phase Transition

Daniel Sherman, Uwe S. Pracht, Boris Gorshunov +10

The concept of mass-generation via the Higgs mechanism was strongly inspired by earlier works on the Meissner-Ochsenfeld effect in superconductors. In quantum field theory, the exc…

Dynamical Conductivity Across The Disorder-Tuned Superconductor-Insulator Transition

Mason Swanson, Yen Lee Loh, Mohit Randeria +1

A quantum phase transition is a dramatic event marked by large spatial and temporal fluctuations, where one phase of matter with its ground state and tower of excitations reorganiz…

Proposal for interferometric detection of topological defects in modulated superfluids

Mason Swanson, Yen Lee Loh, Nandini Trivedi

Attractive interactions between fermions can produce a superfluid ground state, in which pairs of up and down spins swirl together in a coordinated, coherent dance. How is this dan…

Critical Anisotropies of a Geometrically-Frustrated Triangular-Lattice Antiferromagnet

M. Swanson, J. T. Haraldsen, R. S. Fishman

This work examines the critical anisotropy required for the local stability of the collinear ground states of a geometrically-frustrated triangular-lattice antiferromagnet (TLA). U…

Spin-Wave Instabilities and Non-Collinear Magnetic Phases of a Geometrically-Frustrated Triangular-Lattice Antiferromagnet

J. T. Haraldsen, M. Swanson, G. Alvarez +1

This paper examines the relation between the spin-wave instabilities of collinear magnetic phases and the resulting non-collinear phases for a geometrically-frustrated triangular-l…
