Chiral superfluid helium-3 in the quasi-two-dimensional limit

Kavli Affiliate: Jeevak Parpia | Summary:Anisotropic pair breaking close to surfaces favors the chiral A phase of the superfluid $^3$He over the time-reversal invariant B phase. Confining the superfluid $^3$He into a cavity of height $D$ of the order of the Cooper pair size characterized by the coherence length $ΞΎ_0$ – ranging between 16 nm […]

Transdisciplinary collaborations for advancing sustainable and resilient agricultural systems

Kavli Affiliate: Abraham Stroock | Summary:Feeding the growing human population sustainably amidst climate change is one of the most important challenges in the 21st century. Current practices often lead to the overuse of agronomic inputs, such as synthetic fertilizers and water, resulting in environmental contamination and diminishing returns on crop productivity. The complexity of agricultural […]

Rigidity transitions in anisotropic networks happen in multiple steps

Kavli Affiliate: Itai Cohen | Summary:We study how the rigidity transition in a triangular lattice changes as a function of anisotropy by preferentially filling bonds on the lattice in one direction. We discover that the onset of rigidity in anisotropic spring networks arises in at least two steps, reminiscent of the two-step melting transition in […]

Discovery of Dynamical Heterogeneity in a Supercooled Magnetic Monopole Fluid

Kavli Affiliate: J. C. Seamus Davis | Summary:Dynamical heterogeneity, in which transitory local fluctuations occur in the conformation and dynamics of constituent particles, is widely hypothesized to be essential to evolution of supercooled liquids into the glass state. Yet its microscopic spatiotemporal phenomenology has remained unobservable in virtually all molecular glass forming liquids. Because recent […]

Universal scaling solution for a rigidity transition: renormalization group flows near the upper critical dimension

Kavli Affiliate: Itai Cohen | Summary:Rigidity transitions induced by the formation of system-spanning disordered rigid clusters, like the jamming transition, can be well-described in most physically relevant dimensions by mean-field theories. A dynamical mean-field theory commonly used to study these transitions, the coherent potential approximation (CPA), shows logarithmic corrections in $2$ dimensions. By solving the […]
