Soft Condensed Matter Physics [PDF]

open access: hybridSolid State Communications, 1996
Soft condensed matter physics is the study of materials, such as fluids, liquid crystals, polymers, colloids, and emulsions, that are ``soft" to the touch.

Quantum geometry in condensed matter. [PDF]

open access: yesNatl Sci Rev
ABSTRACT One of the most celebrated accomplishments of modern physics is the description of fundamental principles of nature in the language of geometry. As the motion of celestial bodies is governed by the geometry of spacetime, the motion of electrons in condensed matter can be characterized by the geometry of the Hilbert space of ...

Holography and condensed matter [PDF]

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, 2012
This is a short review of recent developments in the application of AdS/CFT methods to some condensed matter problems. In particular we present the holographic description of a local quantum critical state, related to (non)-Fermi liquids and the strange ...

Interatomic potentials for condensed matter [PDF]

open access: yesPhysica B+C, 1985
This paper forms an introduction to a discussion of interatomic forces. As such, it comments on the basic principles, and on some of the problems which underly present formulations, the ways in which future work should develop, and the classes of ...

The Onset of Phase Transitions in Condensed Matter and Relativistic QFT [PDF]

open access: diamond, 2000
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 QFT and condensed matter systems respectively.

Condensed matter and AdS/CFT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
I review two classes of strong coupling problems in condensed matter physics, and describe insights gained by application of the AdS/CFT correspondence.

Emergent electromagnetism in condensed matter. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Jpn Acad Ser B Phys Biol Sci, 2019
Electrons in solids constitute quantum many-body systems showing a variety of phenomena. It often happens that the eigen states of the Hamiltonian are classified into subgroups separated by energy gaps. Band structures in solids and spin polarization in Mott insulators are two representative examples.

Superfluid Helium 3: Link between Condensed Matter Physics and Particle Physics

open access: green, 2000
The discovery of the superfluid phases of Helium 3 in 1971 opened the door to one of the most fascinating systems known in condensed matter physics. Superfluidity of Helium 3, originating from pair condensation of Helium 3 atoms, turned out to be the ...
