Ferromagnetic cluster-glass phase in Ca(Co 1-x Ir x ) 2-y As 2 crystals

In this study, single crystals of Ca(Co 1-x Ir x ) 2-y As 2 with 0≤x≤0.35 and 0.10≤y≤0.14 have been grown using the self-flux technique and characterized by single-crystal x-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, magnetization M, and magnetic susceptibility χ measurements versus temperature T, magnetic field H, and time t, and heat-capacity C p (H,T) measurements. The XRD refinements reveal that all the Ir-substituted crystals crystallize in a collapsed-tetragonal structure as does the parent CaCo 2-y As 2 compound. A small 3.3% Ir substitution for Co in CaCo 1.86 As 2 drastically lowers the A-type antiferromagnetic (AFM) transition temperature T N from 52 to 23 K with a significant enhancement of the Sommerfeld electronic heat-capacity coefficient. The A-type AFM structure consists of ab-plane layers of spins ferromagnetically aligned along the c axis with AFM alignment of the spins in adjacent layers along this axis. The positive Weiss temperatures obtained from Curie-Weiss fits to the χ(T>T N ) data indicate that the dominant magnetic interactions are ferromagnetic (FM) for all x. A magnetic phase boundary is inferred to be present between x=0.14 and x=0.17 from a discontinuity in the x dependencies of the effective moment and Weiss temperature in the Curie-Weiss fits. FM fluctuations that strongly increase with increasing x are also revealed from the χ(T) data. Furthermore, the magnetic ground state for x≥0.17 is a spin glass as indicated by hysteresis in χ(T) between field-cooled and zero-field-cooled measurements and from the relaxation of M in a small field that exhibits a stretched-exponential time dependence. The spin glass has a small FM component to the ordering and is hence inferred to be comprised of small FM clusters. The competing AFM and FM interactions along with crystallographic disorder associated with Ir substitution are inferred to be responsible for the development of a FM cluster-glass phase. A logarithmic T dependence of Cp at low T for x=0.14 is consistent with the presence of significant FM quantum fluctuations. This composition is near the T=0 boundary at x≈0.16 between the A-type AFM phase containing ferromagnetically-aligned layers of spins and the FM cluster-glass phase.

The role of intermediate ΔΔ states in nucleon–nucleon scattering in the large-Nc and unitary limits, and ΔΔ and ΩΩ scattering

We explore potential explanations for why using large-Nc (Nc is the number of colors) scaling to determine the relative size of few-nucleon low-energy operators agrees with experiment even when dynamical Δ’s are not explicitly included. Given that the large-Nc analysis is predicated on the nucleons and Δ’s being degenerate, this is a curious result. We show that for purely S-wave interactions the relationships dictated by large-Nc scaling are unaffected whether the Δ is included or not. In the case of higher partial waves that do not mix with S-waves, the impact of the Δ is perturbative, which makes the agreement with naive (Δ-less) large-Nc ordering unsurprising. For higher partial waves that mix with S-waves, the nucleon and Δ would need to decouple to get agreement with naive large-Nc ordering. We find all NN, ΔN, and ΔΔ low energy coefficients for leading-order baryon–baryon scattering in Δ-full pionless effective field theory in terms of the two independent parameters dictated by the SU(2F) spin-flavor symmetry that arises in the Nc → ∞ limit. Because of recent lattice quantum chromodynamics results and experimental interest, we extend our analysis to the three-flavor case to study ΩΩ scattering. We show that in the unitary limit (where scattering lengths become infinite) one of the two SU(2F) parameters is driven to zero, resulting in enhanced symmetries, which agree with those found in spin-1/2 entanglement studies.

The multichannel $n$-propyl + O 2 reaction surface: Definitive theory on a model hydrocarbon oxidation mechanism

The n-propyl + O 2 reaction is an important model of chain branching reactions in larger combustion systems. In this work, focal point analyses (FPAs) extrapolating to the ab initio limit were performed on the n-propyl + O 2 system based on explicit quantum chemical computations with electron correlation treatments through coupled cluster single, double, triple, and perturbative quadruple excitations [CCSDT(Q)] and basis sets up to cc-pV5Z. All reaction species and transition states were fully optimized at the rigorous CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ level of theory, revealing some substantial differences in comparison to the density functional theory geometries existing in the literature. A mixed Hessian methodology was implemented and benchmarked that essentially makes the computations of CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ vibrational frequencies feasible and thus provides critical improvements to zero-point vibrational energies for the n-propyl + O 2 system. Two key stationary points, n-propylperoxy radical (MIN1) and its concerted elimination transition state (TS1), were located 32.7 kcal mol -1 and 2.4 kcal mol -1 below the reactants, respectively. Two competitive $β$-hydrogen transfer transition states (TS2 and TS2') were found separated by only 0.16 kcal mol -1 , a fact unrecognized in the current combustion literature. Incorporating TS2' in master equation (ME) kinetic models might reduce the large discrepancy of 2.5 kcal mol -1 between FPA and ME barrier heights for TS2. TS2 exhibits an anomalously large diagonal Born-Oppenheimer correction ($Δ$ DBOC = 1.71 kcal mol -1 ), which is indicative of a nearby surface crossing and possible nonadiabatic reaction dynamics. The first systematic conformational search of three hydroperoxypropyl (QOOH) intermediates was completed, uncovering a total of 32 rotamers lying within 1.6 kcal mol -1 of their respective lowest-energy minima. Our definitive energetics for stationary points on the $n$-propyl + O 2 potential energy surface provide key benchmarks for future studies of hydrocarbon oxidation.

Photophysical properties of zero-dimensional perovskites studied by PBE0 and GW+BSE methods

Due to the exceptional photophysical properties and great potential applications in solid state lighting, zero-dimensional halide perovskites with broadband emitting have recently attracted much attention. In this work, to reveal the origin of the broadband absorption and emission spectra of 0D (C 4 N 2 H 14 Br) 4 SnBr x I 6-x (x = 3), the ground state and exciton dynamics properties have been studied by hybrid PBE0 functional and the GW+BSE method. Different self-trapped excitons (STEs) are obtained, and their emission energies by PBE0 are consistent well with experimental data. By considering the vibrational broadening of emission, our calculated full width at half maximum of emission accords well with the experiment. The absorption of free exciton and STEs is also calculated by considering the quasiparticle and excitonic effect. Our results show that these light-induced trapped states can be observed by experiments, as confirmed in other similar systems by the femtosecond transient absorption spectra.

The coset construction for particles of arbitrary spin

When a Poincaré-invariant system spontaneously breaks continuous internal symmetries, Goldstones’ theorem demands the existence of massless, spin-zero excitations in a one-to-one correspondence with the broken symmetry generators. When a system spontaneously breaks Poincaré symmetry, however, the kinds of excitations that satisfy Goldstone’s theorem can be quite unusual. In particular, they may have any spin and need not be particles or even quasiparticles. The standard coset construction used to formulate effective actions of Goldstones, however, is rather restrictive and is incapable of generating the full spectrum of possibilities allowed by Goldstone’s theorem. We propose a (partial) remedy to this problem by postulating a novel coset construction for systems that spontaneously break Poincaré symmetry. This new construction is capable of generating effective actions with a wide range of Goldstone excitations — including fermionic degrees of freedom — even when all symmetries are bosonic. To demonstrate its utility, we focus on constructing effective actions for point particles of various spins. We recover the known result that a particle of spin s requires an \( \mathcal{N} \) = 2 s supersymmetric worldline reparameterization gauge symmetry, which we implement at the level of the coset construction. In the process, we discover that massless particles require a novel kind of inverse Higgs constraint that bears some resemblance to the dynamical inverse Higgs constraints that appear in certain fermi liquid effective field theories. We then consider particles that, in addition to quantum spin, have finite spatial extent and are free to rotate. We derive a novel action for such particles and find a ‘spin-orbital’ coupling between the intrinsic quantum spin and the physical-rotation degrees of freedom.

Linear multispecies gyrokinetic flux tube benchmarks in shaped tokamak plasmas

Verification is the fundamental step that any turbulence simulation code has to be submitted in order to assess the proper implementation of the underlying equations. We have carried out a cross comparison of three flux tube gyrokinetic codes, GENE [F. Jenko et al., Phys. Plasmas 7, 1904 (2000)], GKW [A. G. Peeters et al., Comput. Phys. Commun. 180, 2650 (2009)], and GS2 [W. Dorland et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 5579 (2000)], focusing our attention on the effect of realistic geometries described by a series of MHD equilibria with increasing shaping complexity. To simplify the effort, the benchmark has been limited to the electrostatic collisionless linear behaviour of the system. A fully gyrokinetic model has been used to describe the dynamics of both ions and electrons. Several tests have been carried out looking at linear stability at ion and electron scales, where for the assumed profiles Ion Temperature Gradient (ITG)/Trapped Electron Modes and Electron Temperature Gradient modes are unstable. The capability of the codes to handle a non-zero ballooning angle has been successfully benchmarked in the ITG regime. Finally, the standard Rosenbluth-Hinton test has been successfully carried out looking at the effect of shaping on Zonal Flows (ZFs) and Geodesic Acoustic Modes (GAMs). Inter-code comparison as well as validation of simulation results against analytical estimates has been accomplished. All the performed tests confirm that plasma elongation strongly stabilizes plasma instabilities as well as leads to a strong increase in ZF residual and GAM damping.

Geometrical frustration versus Kitaev interactions in BaCo 2 (AsO 4 ) 2

Recently, Co-based honeycomb magnets have been proposed as promising candidate materials to host the Kitaev spin liquid (KSL) state. One of the front-runners is BaCo 2 (AsO 4 ) 2 (BCAO), where it was suggested that the exchange processes between Co 2+ ions via the surrounding edge-sharing oxygen octahedra could give rise to bond-dependent Kitaev interactions. In this work, we present and analyze a comprehensive inelastic neutron scattering (INS) study of BCAO with fields in the honeycomb plane. Combining the constraints from the magnon excitations in the high-field polarized state and the inelastic spin structure factor measured in zero magnetic field, we examine two leading theoretical models: the Kitaev-type JK Γ Γ ′ model and the XXZ - J 1 - J 3 model. We show that the existing experimental data can be consistently accounted for by the XXZ - J 1 - J 3 model but not by the JK Γ Γ ′ model, and we discuss the implications of these results for the realization of a spin liquid phase in BCAO and more generally for the realization of the Kitaev model in cobaltates.

Frequency spirals

We study the dynamics of coupled phase oscillators on a two-dimensional Kuramoto lattice with periodic boundary conditions. For coupling strengths just below the transition to global phase-locking, we find localized spatiotemporal patterns that we call “frequency spirals.” These patterns cannot be seen under time averaging; they become visible only when we examine the spatial variation of the oscillators' instantaneous frequencies, where they manifest themselves as two-armed rotating spirals. In the more familiar phase representation, they appear as wobbly periodic patterns surrounding a phase vortex. Unlike the stationary phase vortices seen in magnetic spin systems, or the rotating spiral waves seen in reaction-diffusion systems, frequency spirals librate: the phases of the oscillators surrounding the central vortex move forward and then backward, executing a periodic motion with zero winding number. We construct the simplest frequency spiral and characterize its properties using analytical and numerical methods. Simulations show that frequency spirals in large lattices behave much like this simple prototype.

Low-energy edge signatures of the Kitaev spin liquid

Recent experimental work indicates that the Kitaev spin liquid may be realizable close to zero magnetic field in exfoliated 𝛼−RuCl 3 flakes, thus providing a more versatile setting for studying non-Abelian anyons. Here, we propose a robust nanoscale signature of the Kitaev spin liquid that results from its edge states and manifests in the low-energy spin dynamics. In particular, we highlight a singular peak in the dynamical spin structure factor of a zigzag edge whose energy scales linearly with only one component of the magnetic field. This sharp feature in the local spin dynamics directly reflects the bond-directional Kitaev spin interactions and, more generally, the projective symmetries of the Kitaev spin liquid. In conclusion, we demonstrate that our proposed signature survives in the presence of edge disorder as well as non-Kitaev interactions, and provide detailed guidelines for experimentally observing it using inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy and color-center relaxometry.

Negative Refraction in Time-Varying Strongly Coupled Plasmonic-Antenna–Epsilon-Near-Zero Systems

Time-varying metasurfaces are emerging as a powerful instrument for the dynamical control of the electromagnetic properties of a propagating wave. Here we demonstrate an efficient time-varying metasurface based on plasmonic nano-antennas strongly coupled to an epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) deeply subwavelength film. The plasmonic resonance of the metal resonators strongly interacts with the optical ENZ modes, providing a Rabi level spitting of ~30%. Optical pumping at frequency ω induces a nonlinear polarization oscillating at 2ω responsible for an efficient generation of a phase conjugate and a negative refracted beam with a conversion efficiency that is more than 4 orders of magnitude greater compared to the bare ENZ film. In this work, the introduction of a strongly coupled plasmonic system therefore provides a simple and effective route towards the implementation of ENZ physics at the nanoscale.

Two-qudit geometric phase evolution under dephasing

In this work, we study a bipartite system composed by a pair of entangled qudits under dephasing, showing how the dynamics can be decoupled into two main sectors. In one of them, the concurrence of the effective state needed to compute the geometric phase generally decays to zero at asymptotic times. Of course, an evolution restricted to this sector can occur or not, depending on the initial state. Among the possibilities, there is a maximally entangled qutrit state (MES) that undergoes a restricted evolution. In this case, instead of decaying to zero, the concurrence as well as the geometric phase signal a transition to an effective two-qubit MES at asymptotic times. Next, we obtain the analytic solution to the master equation for a general initial two-qutrit state, and identify a whole class of decoherence free states. The associated observables, evolving in the presence of the environment, are robust against decoherence regardless of the coupling constants and operating weights. Among them, we obtained all the MES states which are robust against decoherence. The enhanced stability properties around them provides a strategy to minimize the effects of the environment on fractional topological phases.

Phase diagram of the three-dimensional subsystem toric code

Subsystem quantum error-correcting codes typically involve measuring a sequence of noncommuting parity check operators. They can sometimes exhibit greater fault tolerance than conventional codes, which use commuting checks. However, unlike subspace codes, it is unclear if subsystem codes—in particular their advantages—can be understood in terms of ground-state properties of a physical Hamiltonian. In this paper, we address this question for the three-dimensional subsystem toric code (3D STC), as recently constructed by Kubica and Vasmer [], which exhibits single-shot error correction. Motivated by a conjectured relation between single-shot properties and thermal stability, we study the zero- and finite-temperature phases of an associated noncommuting Hamiltonian. By mapping the Hamiltonian model to a pair of 3D Z 2 gauge theories coupled by a kinetic constraint, we find various phases at zero temperature, all separated by first-order transitions: There are 3D toric code-like phases with deconfined point-like excitations in the bulk, and there are phases with a confined bulk supporting a 2D toric code on the surface when appropriate boundary conditions are chosen. The latter is similar to the surface topological order present in 3D STC. However, the similarities between the single-shot correction in 3D STC and the confined phases are only partial: they share the same sets of degrees of freedom, but they are governed by different dynamical rules. Instead, we argue that the process of single-shot error correction can more suitably be associated with a path (rather than a point) in the zero-temperature phase diagram, a perspective, which inspires alternative measurement sequences enabling single-shot error correction. Moreover, since none of the above-mentioned phases survives at nonzero temperature, the single-shot error-correction property of the code does not imply thermal stability of the associated Hamiltonian phase.

Development and Applications of an eReaxFF Force Field for Graphitic Anodes of Lithium-Ion Batteries

Graphene is one of the most promising materials for lithium-ion battery anodes due to its superior electronic conductivity, high surface area for lithium intercalation, fast ionic diffusivity and enhanced specific capacity. A reliable description of many battery processes requires an explicit description of electrochemical interactions involving electrons. A detailed atomistic modeling of electronic conduction and non-zero voltage simulations of graphitic materials require the inclusion of an explicit electronic degree of freedom. To enable large length- and time-scale simulations of electron conduction in graphitic anodes, we developed an eReaxFF force field concept describing graphitic materials with an explicit electron. The newly developed force field, verified against quantum chemistry-based data describing, amongst others, electron affinities and equation of states, reproduces the qualitative behavior of electron conductivity in pristine and imperfect graphitic materials at different applied temperatures and voltages. In addition, excess electron localization near a defect site estimated from eReaxFF simulations agree quite well with the corresponding density functional theory calculations. Here, our eReaxFF simulations show the initiation of lithium-metal-plating driven by electron transfer from the graphene surface to the exposed lithium ions demonstrating the method’s potential for studying lithium-graphene interactions with explicit electrons and explain many unresolved electrode and electrode-electrolyte interface processes.

Supersymmetric and Conformal Features of Hadron Physics

The QCD Lagrangian is based on quark and gluonic fields—not squarks nor gluinos. However, one can show that its hadronic eigensolutions conform to a representation of superconformal algebra, reflecting the underlying conformal symmetry of chiral QCD. The eigensolutions of superconformal algebra provide a unified Regge spectroscopy of meson, baryon, and tetraquarks of the same parity and twist as equal-mass members of the same 4-plet representation with a universal Regge slope. The predictions from light-front holography and superconformal algebra can also be extended to mesons, baryons, and tetraquarks with strange, charm and bottom quarks. The pion q q ¯ eigenstate has zero mass for m q = 0 . A key tool is the remarkable observation of de Alfaro, Fubini, and Furlan (dAFF) which shows how a mass scale can appear in the Hamiltonian and the equations of motion while retaining the conformal symmetry of the action. When one applies the dAFF procedure to chiral QCD, a mass scale κ appears which determines universal Regge slopes, hadron masses in the absence of the Higgs coupling. One also predicts the form of the nonperturbative QCD running coupling: α s ( Q 2 ) ∝ e − Q 2 / 4 κ 2 , in agreement with the effective charge determined from measurements of the Bjorken sum rule. One also obtains viable predictions for spacelike and timelike hadronic form factors, structure functions, distribution amplitudes, and transverse momentum distributions. The combination of conformal symmetry, light-front dynamics, its holographic mapping to AdS 5 space, and the dAFF procedure thus provide new insights, not only into the physics underlying color confinement, but also the nonperturbative QCD coupling and the QCD mass scale.

Electrically Tunable Goos-Hänchen Effect with Graphene in the Terahertz Regime

Goos-Hänchen (G-H) effect is of great interest in the manipulation of optical beams. However, it is still fairly challenging to attain efficient controls of the G-H shift for diverse applications. Here, we propose a mechanism to realize tunable G-H shift in the terahertz regime with electrically controllable graphene. Taking monolayer graphene covered epsilon-near-zero metamaterial as a planar model system, it is found that the G-H shift for the orthogonal s-polarized and p-polarized terahertz beams at oblique incidence are positive and negative, respectively. The G-H shift can be modified substantially by electrically controlling the Fermi energy of the monolayer graphene. Reversely, the Fermi energy dependent G-H effect can also be used as a strategy for measuring the doping level of graphene. In addition, the G-H shifts of the system are of strong frequency-dependence at oblique angles of incidence, therefore the proposed graphene hybrid system can potentially be used for the generation of terahertz “rainbow”, a flat analog of the dispersive prism in optics. The proposed scheme of hybrid system involving graphene for dynamic control of G-H shift will have potential applications in the manipulation of terahertz waves.

Parallel pumping of magnons in inhomogeneous spin textures probed through NV spin relaxometry

We combine micromagnetic simulations and nitrogen-vacancy (NV) defect center spin relaxometry measurements to study magnon modes in inhomogeneous spin textures. A thin, micrometer-scale ferromagnetic disk is magnetized in a vortex state in which the magnetization curls around a central core. Micromagnetic simulations show that at zero applied field, the magnetization dynamics of the disk consist of a low frequency gyrotropic mode and higher frequency azimuthal magnon modes, all far detuned from the NV spin transition frequencies. An in-plane static magnetic field breaks the azimuthal symmetry of the vortex state, resulting in the magnon modes transforming in frequency and spatial profile as the field increases. Experimentally, we probe the dynamics of vortex magnetization as a function of applied in-plane static field and ac driving frequency by optically monitoring a nearby NV defect center spin. At certain values of the applied magnetic field, we observe enhanced spin relaxation when driving at twice the frequency of the NV ground state spin transition in optically detected magnetic resonance measurements. We attribute this effect to parallel pumping of a magnon mode in the disk producing magnons at half the excitation frequency. Micromagnetic simulations support this finding, showing spatial and spectral overlap of a confined magnon mode and an NV spin transition, with sufficient interaction strength to explain the observed signal.

A Hermitian symmetric space Fokas–Lenells equation: Solitons, breathers, rogue waves

Highlights: • We study a Hermitian symmetric space Fokas–Lenells equation. • We obtain multi-soliton, kink–breather and rogue wave solutions for this equation. • We analyse the dynamical behaviour of these exact solutions. - Abstract: Based on the zero-curvature representation, we propose a Hermitian symmetric space Fokas–Lenells equation associated with a 4 × 4 matrix spectral problem. Resorting to the gauge transformation between spectral problems, we find a restrictive condition of the spectral functions that can ensure the symmetry of the new potential matrix, from which n-fold classical Darboux transformations and N-fold generalized Darboux transformations of this equation are constructed with the help of the limit technique and an iterative procedure. Utilizing the Darboux transformations and Mathematica software, we obtain various solutions for the Hermitian symmetric space Fokas–Lenells equation, including the multi-soliton solution, kink–breather solution, eye-shaped rogue wave solution, one-peaky shaped rogue wave solution, and dark two-peaky shaped rogue wave solution. By varying the values of the free parameters, we obtain different types of spatial–temporal distribution structures for the solutions, including the fundamental, line and triangular patterns. Furthermore, the dynamical behaviour of these solutions, including the fusion and fission processes of rogue waves, is analysed in detail.

Predicting 1 H NMR relaxation in Gd 3+ -aqua using molecular dynamics simulations

Atomistic molecular dynamics simulations are used to predict 1 H NMR T 1 relaxation of water from paramagnetic Gd 3+ ions in solution at 25 °C. Simulations of the T 1 relaxivity dispersion function r 1 computed from the Gd 3+ – 1 H dipole–dipole autocorrelation function agree within ≃8% of measurements in the range f 0 ≃ 5 ↔ 500 MHz, without any adjustable parameters in the interpretation of the simulations, and without any relaxation models. Here the simulation results are discussed in the context of the Solomon-Bloembergen-Morgan inner-sphere relaxation model, and the Hwang-Freed outer-sphere relaxation model. Below f 0 ≲ 5 MHz, the simulation overestimates r 1 compared to measurements, which is used to estimate the zero-field electron-spin relaxation time. The simulations show potential for predicting r 1 at high frequencies in chelated Gd 3+ contrast-agents used for clinical MRI.
