Ultrafast probing of isotope-induced explicit symmetry breaking in ethylene [PDF]
Communications ChemistrySymmetry governs nature’s laws, yet many of the natural phenomena occur due to the breakdown of symmetry. Here, we show how isotope-induced inversion symmetry breaking influences ultrafast photoisomerization processes in ethylene.

Spontaneous and Explicit Spacetime Symmetry Breaking in Einstein-Cartan Theory with Background Fields [PDF]
Symmetry, 2023 Explicit and spontaneous breaking of spacetime symmetry under diffeomorphisms, local translations, and local Lorentz transformations due to the presence of fixed background fields is examined in Einstein–Cartan theory. In particular, the roles of torsion

Generation of new symmetries from explicit symmetry breaking [PDF]
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2021 We study how the explicit symmetry breaking, through a continuous parameter in the Lagrangian, can actually lead to the creation of different types of symmetries. As examples we consider the motion of a relativistic particle in a curved background, where

Spontaneous and explicit symmetry breaking of thermoacoustic eigenmodes in imperfect annular geometries [PDF]
Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2022 This article deals with the symmetry breaking of azimuthal thermoacoustic modes in annular combustors. Using a nominally symmetric annular combustor, we present experimental evidence of a predicted spontaneous reflectional symmetry breaking, and also an ...

Pseudo-spontaneous U(1) symmetry breaking in hydrodynamics and holography [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 We investigate the low-energy dynamics of systems with pseudo-spontaneously broken U(1) symmetry and Goldstone phase relaxation. We construct a hydrodynamic framework which is able to capture these, in principle independent, effects.

Holographic entanglement density for spontaneous symmetry breaking [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 We investigate the properties of the holographic entanglement entropy of the systems in which the U(1) or the translational symmetry is broken spontaneously.

Spontaneous and explicit parity-time-symmetry breaking in drift-wave instabilities [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2021 A method of parity-time- (PT) symmetry analysis is introduced to study the high-dimensional, complicated parameter space of drift-wave instabilities. We show that spontaneous PT-symmetry breaking leads to the ion temperature gradient instability of drift

Interplay of dynamical and explicit chiral symmetry breaking effects on a quark [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2019 The relative contributions of explicit and dynamical chiral symmetry breaking in QCD models of the quark-gap equation are studied in dependence of frequently employed ans\"atze for the dressed interaction and quark-gluon vertex.
