Bird Flocks as Condensed Matter
Flocking is a paradigmatic case of self-organized collective behavior in biology and a living example of active matter. Several models and theories have been developed in recent years to address these kinds of systems. However, unlike granular materials and biological systems at the microscale, experiments have been scarce until recently, preventing ...

Strain induced band inversion and topological phase transition in methyl-decorated stanene film
The researches for new quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulators with large bulk energy gap are of much significance for their practical applications at room temperature in electronic devices with low-energy consumption.

THE CONDENSED MATTER PHYSICS OF QCD [PDF]
Important progress in understanding the behavior of hadronic matter at high density has been achieved recently, by adapting the techniques of condensed matter theory. At asymptotic densities, the combination of asymptotic freedom and BCS theory make a rigorous analysis possible. New phases of matter with remarkable properties are predicted.

Kaon condensation in dense matter [PDF]
The kaon energy in neutron matter is calculated analytically with the Klein-Gordon equation, by making a Wigner-Seitz cell approximation and employing a $K^-N$ square well potential. The transition from the low density Lenz potential, proportional to scattering length, to the high density Hartree potential is found to begin at fairly low densities ...

Few-Body Systems in Condensed Matter Physics [PDF]
This review focuses on the studies and computations of few-body systems of electrons and holes in condensed matter physics. We analyze and illustrate the application of a variety of methods for description of two- three- and four-body excitonic complexes

Para-hydrodynamics from weak surface scattering in ultraclean thin flakes
Electron hydrodynamics typically emerges in electron fluids with a high electron–electron collision rate. However, new experiments with thin flakes of WTe2 have revealed that other momentum-conserving scattering processes can replace the role of the ...

Ultracold atomic gases in optical lattices: mimicking condensed matter physics and beyond [PDF]
We review recent developments in the physics of ultracold atomic and molecular gases in optical lattices. Such systems are nearly perfect realisations of various kinds of Hubbard models, and as such may very well serve to mimic condensed matter phenomena.

Chiral condensate in neutron matter
A recent chiral perturbation theory calculation of the in-medium quark condensate $$ is extended to the isospin-asymmetric case of pure neutron matter. In contrast to the behavior in isospin-symmetric nuclear matter we find only small deviations from the linear density approximation.

Counting Rules of Nambu-Goldstone Modes [PDF]
When global continuous symmetries are spontaneously broken, there appear gapless collective excitations called Nambu-Goldstone modes (NGMs) that govern the low-energy property of the system. The application of this famous theorem ranges from high-energy,
