Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking

open access: yes, 2008
One of the most powerful ideas of modern theoretical physics is the mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking. It is at the basis of most of the recent achievements in the description of phase transitions in Statistical Mechanics as well as of collective phenomena in solid state physics.

Breaking the Symmetry in Molecular Nanorings

open access: yesThe Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 2016
Because of their unique electronic properties, cyclic molecular structures ranging from benzene to natural light-harvesting complexes have received much attention. Rigid π-conjugated templated porphyrin nanorings serve as excellent model systems here because they possess well-defined structures that can readily be controlled and because they support ...

Dynamic Networks via Polymerizable Deep Eutectic Monomers for Uniform Li+ Transport at Interfaces in Lithium Metal Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The PDEM‐based SIGPE provides a dynamic nanophase from Li+‐bridged molecular self‐association, enhancing electrochemical stability and facilitating uniform Li+ ion flux at the interface. This unique solvation structure results in a hetero species‐driven inorganic‐rich SEI and long‐term cycle stability, suggesting that a PFAS‐free Li+‐containing monomer

Phases of Pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We study the vacuum dynamics of pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons (pNGBs) for SO(N + 1) → SO(N) spontaneous and explicit symmetry breaking. We determine the magnitude of explicit symmetry breaking consistent with an EFT description of the effective potential

Symmetry Breaking Revisited [PDF]

open access: yesConstraints, 2002
Symmetries in constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) are one of the difficulties that practitioners have to deal with. We present in this paper a new method based on the symmetries of decisions taken from the root of the search tree. This method can be seen as an improvement of the nogood recording presented by Focacci and Milano[5] and Fahle ...

The Frontiers of Aqueous Zinc–Iodine Batteries: A Comprehensive Review on Mechanisms, Optimization, and Industrial Prospects

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review provides an in‐depth understanding of all theoretical reaction mechanisms to date concerning zinc–iodine batteries. It revisits the inherent issues and solutions of zinc–iodine batteries from the perspective of industrial application. By integrating existing examples of energy storage applications, it identifies the challenges faced on the ...

Nonequilibrium quantum dynamics of partial symmetry breaking for ultracold bosons in an optical lattice ring trap

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2019
A vortex in a Bose–Einstein condensate on a ring undergoes quantum dynamics in response to a quantum quench in terms of partial symmetry breaking from a uniform lattice to a biperiodic one.
