The uses of pulsed neutron sources for research in magnetism and other areas of condensed matter physics [PDF]
The next decade will see the development worldwide of pulsed spallation neutron sources for condensed matter research. A conceptual introduction to such neutron sources is given. Neutron time-of-flight techniques as applied to diffraction and inelastic neutron scattering spectroscopy are discussed, and compared with techniques using crystal ...

Matchmaking Between Condensed Matter and Quantum Foundations, and Other Stories: My Six Decades in Physics [PDF]
I present some rather selective reminiscences of my long career in physics, from my doctoral work to the present. I do not spend time on topics such as the nuclear magnetic resonance behavior of 3He, as I have reviewed the history extensively elsewhere, but rather concentrate, first, on my long-running project to make condensed matter physics relevant

Abstract The so-called “cross-relaxation” method is a powerful technique that can be used to provide detailed structural and site information on impurities in condensed matter systems, including semiconductors. In this paper, we report on the progress of its development at the new 8Li β -detected nuclear magnetic resonance ( β -NMR) facility

Nuclear Three-body Force Effect on a Kaon Condensate in Neutron Star Matter [PDF]
We explore the effects of a microscopic nuclear three-body force on the threshold baryon density for kaon condensation in chemical equilibrium neutron star matter and on the composition of the kaon condensed phase in the framework of the Brueckner ...

Entanglement of indistinguishable particles in condensed matter physics [PDF]
The concept of entanglement in systems where the particles are indistinguishable has been the subject of much recent interest and controversy. In this paper we study the notion of entanglement of particles introduced by Wiseman and Vaccaro [Phys.

Ultra Low Momentum Neutron Catalyzed Nuclear Reactions on Metallic Hydride Surfaces
Ultra low momentum neutron catalyzed nuclear reactions in metallic hydride system surfaces are discussed. Weak interaction catalysis initially occurs when neutrons (along with neutrinos) are produced from the protons which capture ``heavy'' electrons ...

From new states of matter to a unification of light and electrons
For a long time, people believe that all possible states of matter are described by Landau symmetry-breaking theory. Recently we find that string-net condensation provide a mechanism to produce states of matter beyond the symmetry-breaking description ...

Amplitude / Higgs Modes in Condensed Matter Physics
The order parameter and its variations in space and time in many different states in condensed matter physics at low temperatures are described by the complex function $\Psi({\bf r}, t)$.

The role of Causality in Tunable Fermi Gas Condensates
We develop a new formalism for the description of the condensates of cold Fermi atoms whose speed of sound can be tuned with the aid of a narrow Feshbach resonance.
