Correlated phases of moat-band excitons in two dimensions
L. Maisel Licerán, S. H. Boeve, H. T. C. Stoof
We study dilute two-dimensional systems of interacting excitons with a moat dispersion, whose ground-state manifold consists of a set of discrete or continuously degenerate energy…
Dynamics of spontaneous symmetry breaking in a space-time crystal
J. N. Stehouwer, J. Smits, P. van der Straten +1
We present the theory of spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) of discrete time translations as recently realized in the space-time crystals of an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate. Th…
On the long-term stability of space-time crystals
J. Smits, H. T. C. Stoof, P. van der Straten
We investigate a space-time crystal in a superfluid Bose gas. Using a well-controlled periodic drive we excite only one crystalline mode in the system, which can be accurately mode…
Dynamics of a Space-Time Crystal in an Atomic Bose-Einstein Condensate
Lei Liao, Jasper Smits, Peter van der Straten +1
A space-time crystal has recently been observed in a superfluid Bose gas. Here we construct a variational model that allows us to describe from first principles the coupling betwee…
Nonrelativistic fermions with holographic interactions and the unitary Fermi gas
N. W. M. Plantz, H. T. C. Stoof
We present an alternative way of computing nonrelativistic single-particle spectra from holography. To this end, we introduce a mass gap in a holographic Dirac semimetal and subseq…
Observation of a space-time crystal in a superfluid quantum gas
Jasper Smits, Lei Liao, Henk Stoof +1
Time crystals are a phase of matter, for which the discrete time symmetry of the driving Hamiltonian is spontaneously broken. The breaking of discrete time symmetry has been observ…
