Phonon Induced Energy Relaxation in Quantum Critical Metals

Kavli Affiliate: Debanjan Chowdhury | First 5 Authors: Haoyu Guo, Debanjan Chowdhury, , , | Summary: Metals at the brink of electronic quantum phase transitions display high-temperature superconductivity, competing orders, and unconventional charge transport, revealing strong departures from conventional Fermi liquid behavior. Investigation of these fascinating intertwined phenomena has been at the center of research […]

Turning a negative neutrino mass into a positive optical depth

Kavli Affiliate: Wayne Hu | First 5 Authors: Tanisha Jhaveri, Tanvi Karwal, Wayne Hu, , | Summary: Under $Lambda$CDM, recent baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) distance measures from DESI, which favor a low matter density $Omega_m$, are in moderate $2-3sigma$ tension with cosmic microwave background (CMB) observations. This tension appears alternately as a preference for the […]
