Asymmetric balance in symmetry breaking

Physical Review Research, 2020
Spontaneous symmetry breaking is central to our understanding of physics and explains many natural phenomena, from cosmic scales to subatomic particles.

Synchronous symmetry breaking in neurons with different neurite counts. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
As neurons develop, several immature processes (i.e., neurites) grow out of the cell body. Over time, each neuron breaks symmetry when only one of its neurites grows much longer than the rest, becoming an axon. This symmetry breaking is an important step

Distinguishing among Technicolor/Warped Scenarios in Dileptons [PDF]

, 2011
Models of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking usually include new spin-1 resonances, whose couplings and masses have to satisfy electroweak precision tests.

Entanglement-enabled symmetry-breaking orders

SciPost Physics Core
A spontaneous symmetry-breaking order is conventionally described by a tensor-product wavefunction of some few-body clusters; some standard examples include the simplest ferromagnets and valence bond solids. We discuss a type of symmetry-breaking orders,

Symmetry breaking in driven and strongly damped pendulum

, 2004
We examine the conditions for appearance of symmetry breaking bifurcation in damped and periodically driven pendulum in the case of strong damping. We show that symmetry breaking, unlike other nonlinear phenomena, can exist at high dissipation.

Chiral symmetry breaking by a non-Abelian external field in (2+1)-dimensions [PDF]

, 1997
We investigate the effect of a constant external non-Abelian field on chiral symmetry breaking in a (2+1)-dimensional Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model and in 3D QCD by solving the gap equation and the Bethe-Salpeter equation, and also by RG analysis. In the (2+1)

Andreev reflections modulated by the breaking of space-inversion symmetry in graphene-typed materials

New Journal of Physics, 2019
We theoretically perform a comprehensive analysis about the influences of the space-inversion symmetry breaking in graphene-based materials on the Andreev reflections (AR) in the normal-metal/superconductor (NS) and NSN heterojunctions.

Tunneling potentials for the tunneling action: gauge invariance

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We formulate a procedure to obtain a gauge-invariant tunneling rate at zero temperature using the recently developed tunneling potential approach. This procedure relies on a consistent power counting in gauge coupling and a derivative expansion.

Symmetry Breaking Soliton, Breather, and Lump Solutions of a Nonlocal Kadomtsev–Petviashvili System

Complexity, 2020
The Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation is one of the well-studied models of nonlinear waves in dispersive media and in multicomponent plasmas. In this paper, the coupled Alice-Bob system of the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation is first constructed via the ...
