Chiral phase transitions of helical matter [PDF]
We study the thermodynamics of helical matter, namely quark matter in which a net helicity, $n_H$, is in equilibrium. Interactions are modeled by the renormalized quark-meson model with two flavors of quarks. Helical density is described within the grand-canonical ensemble formalism via a chemical potential, $ _H$.

Optical anomalous Hall effect enhanced by flat bands in ferromagnetic van der Waals semimetal
Geometrical aspects of electronic states in condensed matter have led to the experimental realization of enhanced electromagnetic phenomena, as exemplified by the giant anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in topological semimetals.

Phase diagram of two-flavor quark matter: Gluonic phase at nonzero temperature [PDF]
The phase structure of neutral two-flavor quark matter at nonzero temperature is studied. Our analysis is performed within the framework of a gauged Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model and the mean-field approximation. We compute the free energy of the gluonic phase (gluonic cylindrical phase II) in a self-consistent manner and investigate the phase transition ...

Topological Goldstone phases of matter [PDF]
We consider the possibility for phases of matter in which a continuous symmetry is spontaneously broken in a \emph{topologically non-trivial} way, which, roughly, means that the action for the Goldstone modes contains a quantized topological term, and could manifest in, for example, non-trivial quantum numbers of topological defects of the order ...

In some materials exhibiting field-induced first-order transitions (FOTs), the equilibrium phase-transition line is hidden by the hysteresis region associated with the FOT.

The half-skyrmion phase in a chiral-quark model [PDF]
The Chiral Dilaton Model, where baryons arise as non-topological solitons built from the interaction of quarks and chiral mesons, shows in the high density low temperature regime a two phase scenario in the nuclear matter phase diagram.

Nonreciprocal charge transport at topological insulator/superconductor interface
The superconducting proximity effect on the surface state of a topological insulator is promising to generate topological superconductivity. Here, Yasuda et al.

Molecular beam deposition of a new layered pnictide with distorted Sb square nets
While the family of layered pnictides ABX2 (A—rare or alkaline earth metals, B—transition metals, and X—Sb/Bi) can host Dirac dispersions based on Sb/Bi square nets, nearly half of them have not yet been synthesized for possible combinations of the A and

Color Ferromagnetic Quark Matter in Neutron Stars [PDF]
We show that color ferromagnetic phase of quark matter is energetically more favored than color superconducting phases in neutron stars. Namely, increasing baryon density in neutron stars transforms nuclear matter into the quark matter of the color ferromagnetic phase.

Mesoscopic Phase Fluctuations: General Phenomenon in Condensed Matter [PDF]
General conditions for the occurrence of mesoscopic phase fluctuations in condensed matter are considered. The description of different thermodynamic phases, which coexist as a mixture of mesoscopically separated regions, is based on the {\it theory of heterophase fluctuations}. The spaces of states, typical of the related phases, are characterized by {
