  • Surface Pair-Density-Wave Superconducting and Superfluid States
    Surface Pair-Density-Wave Superconducting and Superfluid States Mats Barkman,1 Albert Samoilenka,1 and Egor Babaev1 1Department of Physics, Royal Institute of Technology, SE-106 91 Stockholm, Sweden Fulde, Ferrell, Larkin, and Ovchinnikov (FFLO) predicted inhomogeneous superconducting and superfluid ground states, spontaneously breaking translation symmetries. In this Letter, we demon- strate that the transition from the FFLO to the normal state as a function of temperature or increased Fermi surface splitting is not a direct one. Instead the system has an additional phase transition to a different state where pair-density-wave superconductivity (or superfluidity) exists only on the boundaries of the system, while the bulk of the system is normal. The surface pair- density-wave state is very robust and exists for much larger fields and temperatures than the FFLO state.

Dekan: Prof. Dr. W. Aßmus Gutachter: Prof. Dr. D.-H. Rischke, Prof. Dr. Adrian Dumitru Datum der Disputation: Dezember 7, 2007. Acknowledgements I would like to express my special thanks to Prof. Dirk Rischke for all the generous supports that during my Ph.D thesis he gave mentally and practically to me. I learned a lot of things from him which will be certainly very useful for me in future as well. Without his helps and encouragements it would be difficult to come to the end of this thesis. Thank you Dirk! I am also very grateful to Prof. Igor Shovkovy for very instructive discussions we had. He was the one who taught this stimulating field to me. Also, I had a lot of fun with him during lunch breaks and in other occasions. Since I wanted to take ten watermelons with my tow hands, I needed to work harder. On other words, along my Ph.D thesis, I wanted to work on other fields as well, although the project were not published. I had great times when I was collaborating with Prof. Adrian Dumitru and Prof. Michael Strickland. I thank both of you for teaching me those fascinating topics. I also had a wonderful chance to talk to Prof.

THEORETICAL NUCLEAR PHYSICS GROUP 1 Theoretical Nuclear Physics Group Subjects: Structure and reactions of unstable nuclei, Monte Carlo Shell Model, Molecular Orbit Method, Mean Field Calculations, Quantum Chaos Quark-Gluon Plasma, Lattice QCD simulations, Structure of Hadrons, Color superconductivity, cold atoms, graphene Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions, Relativistic Hydrodynamics, Color Glass Con- densate Member: Takaharu Otsuka, Tetsuo Hatsuda, Tetsufumi Hirano, Noritaka Shimizu and Shoichi Sasaki In the nuclear theory group, a wide variety of subjects are studied. The subjects are divided into three major categories: Nuclear Structure Physics, Quantum Hadron Physics and High Energy Hadron Physics. Nuclear Structure Physics In the Nuclear Structure group (T. Otsuka and N. Shimizu), quantum many-body problems for atomic nuclei, various issues on nuclear forces and their combinations are studied theoretically from many angles. The major subjects are the structure of unstable exotic nuclei, shell model calculations including Monte Carlo Shell Model, reactions between heavy nuclei, Bose-Einstein condensation, symmetries and quantum chaos, etc. The structure of unstable nuclei is the major focus of our interests, and examples of the current subjects are the disappearance of conventional magic numbers and appearance of new ones. These phenomena are due to the change of the shell structure (shell evolution), and are largely due to nuclear forces such as the tensor force and the three-body force. Many papers with strong impacts have been published by our group in recent years, such as [1]. The structure of such unstable nuclei have been calculated by Monte Carlo Shell Model and conventional shell model [2], and their applications have been made in collaborations with experimentalists [3, 4].

  • Exotics: Heavy Pentaquarks and Tetraquarks Arxiv:1706.00610V2
    DESY 17-071 Exotics: Heavy Pentaquarks and Tetraquarks Ahmed Ali,1 Jens S¨orenLange,2 and Sheldon Stone3 1DESY Theory Group, Notkestrasse 85, D-22607 Hamburg, Germany 2Justus-Liebig-Universit¨atGiessen, II. Physikalisches Institut, Heinrich-Buff-Ring 16, D-35392 Giessen, Germany 3Physics Department, 201 Physics Building, Syracuse University, Syracuse, NY 13244-1130, USA July 31, 2017 Abstract For many decades after the invention of the quark model in 1964 there was no evidence that hadrons are formed from anything other than the simplest pairings of quarks and antiquarks, mesons being formed of a quark-antiquark pair and baryons from three quarks. In the last decade, however, in an explosion of data from both e+e− and hadron colliders, there are many recently observed states that do not fit into this picture. These new particles are called generically \ex- otics". They can be either mesons or baryons. Remarkably, they all decay into at least one meson formed of either a cc or bb pair. In this review, after the introduction, we explore each of these new discoveries in detail first from an experimental point of view, then subsequently give a theo- retical discussion. These exotics can be explained if the new mesons contain two-quarks and two- antiquarks (tetraquarks), while the baryons contain four-quarks plus an antiquark (pentaquarks). The theoretical explanations for these states take three divergent tracks: tightly bound objects, just as in the case of normal hadrons, but with more constituents, or loosely bound \molecules" similar to the deuteron, but formed from two mesons, or a meson or baryon, or more wistfully, they are not multiquark states but appear due to kinematic effects caused by different rescatterings of virtual particles; most of these models have all been post-dictions.

  • High Density Quark Matter and Color Superconductivity
    Physics 569 Term Paper High Density Quark Matter and Color Superconductivity Po-Yao Chang∗ December 9, 2010 Abstract: Due to the nature of attractive interaction in quantum chromodynamics (QCD), quark matter is expected to be formed a cooper-pair at high den- sity and low temperature. Here I'll describe some possible quark pairing phases in high density quark matter and showing the correspondence super- conductivity in BSC theory. Based on the current understanding of the color superconductivity (CSC) phase, we might have a clear view to understand the color superconductivity inside the neutron stars. ∗[email protected] Department of Physics, University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign, 1110 W. Green St., Urbana, IL 61801, USA 1 1 Introduction Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is the fundamental theory of study the strong interaction between quarks and gluons. Since quarks are color-charged fermions, QCD is a non-abelian gauge theory under SU(3) gauge. It has well tested and agreed with many experimental evidence over 30 years. How- ever the phase diagram for QCD matter has not been well studied yet. The phase of the quark matter is depended on the temperature T and the chem- ical potential µ. For high temperature region (T µ), hadrons break into quarks, anti-quarks and gluons. This is called quark-gluon plasma (QGP) phase which corresponding to the early Universe in microseconds after the big bang. This new state of matter can also be created in experiments in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). Another interesting region is at low temperature and large chemical potential region (T µ).
