Phase transitions in dense matter
As the density of matter increases, atomic nuclei disintegrate into nucleons and, eventually, the nucleons themselves disintegrate into quarks. The phase transitions (PT's) between these phases can vary from steep first order to smooth crossovers ...

Fracton phases of matter [PDF]
Fractons are a new type of quasiparticle which are immobile in isolation, but can often move by forming bound states. Fractons are found in a variety of physical settings, such as spin liquids and elasticity theory, and exhibit unusual phenomenology, such as gravitational physics and localization.

Fluctuations and phases in baryonic matter [PDF]
AbstractThe phase structure of baryonic matter is investigated with focus on the role of fluctuations beyond the mean-field approximation. The prototype test case studied is the chiral nucleon-meson model, with added comments on the chiral quark-meson model. Applications to nuclear matter include the liquid-gas phase transition.

Nonreciprocal charge transport in topological superconductor candidate Bi2Te3/PdTe2 heterostructure
In a hybrid system of topological insulator (TI)/superconductor (SC), the proximity-induced topological superconductivity is expected to appear at the interface. Here we propose and demonstrate that a TI/SC hybrid Bi2Te3/PdTe2 heterostructure serves as a

Phases of Granular Matter [PDF]
An understanding of homogeneous nucleation of crystalline structure from a disordered medium such as a liquid remains an important unsolved problem in condensed matter physics. Guided by the results from a number of experiments on granular and colloidal systems in the past two decades, including in particular observations of homogeneous nucleation in ...

On the chain-melted phase of matter [PDF]
Various single elements form incommensurate crystal structures under pressure, where a zeolite-type “host” sublattice surrounds a “guest” sublattice comprising 1D chains of atoms. On “chain melting,” diffraction peaks from the guest sublattice vanish, while those from the host remain.

The phase diagram of hadronic matter [PDF]
We interpret the phase structure of hadronic matter in terms of the basic dynamical and geometrical features of hadrons. Increasing the density of constituents of finite spatial extension, by increasing the temperature T or the baryochemical potential mu, eventually "fills the box" and eliminates the physical vacuum.
