Critical properties of the quantum Ashkin-Teller chain with chiral perturbations

Kavli Affiliate: Natalia Chepiga | First 5 Authors: Bernhard Lüscher, Frédéric Mila, Natalia Chepiga, , | Summary: We investigate the nature of the phase transitions in the quantum Ashkin-Teller chain in the presence of chiral perturbations. We locate the Lifshitz line separating a region of direct chiral transitions from the region where the transition is […]

Optimal strategies for kiiking: active pumping to invert a swing

Kavli Affiliate: L. Mahadevan | First 5 Authors: Petur Bryde, Ian C. Davenport, L. Mahadevan, , | Summary: Kiiking is an extreme sport in which athletes alternate between standing and squatting to pump a standing swing till it is inverted and completes a rotation. A minimal model of the sport may be cast in terms […]
