Sleptonic SUSY: from UV framework to IR phenomenology

Majid Ekhterachian

We study an attractive scenario, "Sleptonic SUSY", which reconciles the 125 GeV Higgs scalar and the non-observation of superpartners thus far with potentially pivotal roles for slepton phenomenology: providing viable ongoing targets for LHC discovery, inc ...

Hidden bulk and surface effects in the spin polarization of the nodal-line semimetal ZrSiTe

Helmuth Berger, Arnaud Magrez, Marco Grioni, Oleg Yazyev, Alberto Crepaldi, Mauro Fanciulli, Gianmarco Gatti, Daniel Gosalbez Martinez, Silvan Dino Marcos Roth

Local inversion symmetry breaking in centrosymmetric materials can lead to large spin polarization of the electronic band structure in separate sectors of the unit cell. Here, the authors reveal such hidden spin polarisation in ZrSiTe using spin and angle ...

Schwinger pair production from Pade-Borel reconstruction

Adrien Florio

In this work, we show how the knowledge of the first few terms of the Euler-Heisenberg Lagrangian's weak-field expansion in a magnetic field background is enough to reconstruct the pair-production rate in a strong electric field background. To this end, we ...

Enhanced Intersystem Crossing and Transient Electron Spin Polarization in a Photoexcited Pentacene–Trityl Radical

David Lyndon Emsley, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Dominik Józef Kubicki, Etienne Christophe Socie, Aaron James Rossini, Gabriele Stevanato, Claudia Esther Avalos

Identifying and characterizing systems that generate well-defined states with large electron spin polarization is of high interest for applications in molecular spintronics, high-energy physics, and magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The generation of electr ...

Electrochemical Overhauser dynamic nuclear polarization

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Christophe Roussel, Jonas Milani, Mika Antero Tamski

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy suffers from low sensitivity due to the low nuclear spin polarization obtained within practically achievable external magnetic fields. Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) refers to techniques that increase the N ...

Fully spin-polarized bulk states in ferroelectric GeTe

Jan Hugo Dil, Mauro Fanciulli

By measuring the spin polarization of GeTe films as a function of light polarization we observed that the bulk states are fully spin polarized in the initial state, in strong contrast with observations for other systems with a strong spin-orbit interaction ...

Weyl fermions, Fermi arcs, and minority-spin carriers in ferromagnetic CoS2

Thorsten Schmitt, Samuel Thomas Stolz

Magnetic Weyl semimetals are a newly discovered class of topological materials that may serve as a platform for exotic phenomena, such as axion insulators or the quantum anomalous Hall effect. Here, we use angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy and ab i ...

Spontaneous conformal symmetry breaking in fishnet CFT

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Georgios Karananas

Quantum field theories with exact but spontaneously broken conformal invariance have an intriguing feature: their vacuum energy (cosmological constant) is equal to zero. Up to now, the only known ultraviolet complete theories where conformal symmetry can b ...

Experimental studies of the equilibrium and out-of-equilibrium electronic structure of non-symmorphic topological materials

Gianmarco Gatti

Symmetry and topology are fundamental properties of nature. Mathematics provides us with a general framework to understand these concepts. On one side, symmetry describes the invariance properties of an object for specific transformations. On the other sid ...
