Broken-Symmetry Ground States of the Heisenberg Model on the Pyrochlore Lattice

The spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on the pyrochlore lattice is an iconic frustrated three-dimensional spin system with a rich phase diagram. Besides hosting several ordered phases, the model is debated to possess a spin-liquid ground state when only nearest-ne ...

In-line electronic and structural characterization of reactively sputtered Cu-Co-Mn black spinel oxides

Andreas Schueler, Anna Krammer, Maxime Lagier

Cu-Co-Mn spinel oxide thin films are deposited by reactive magnetron sputtering. The x-ray diffraction (XRD) spectrum suggests a nanocrystalline spinel film when sputtered at approximate to 465 degrees C. In-line scanning tunneling microscopy confirms nano ...

Large charge, semiclassics and superfluids : from broken symmetries to conformal field theories

Gabriel Francisco Cuomo

This thesis explores the application of semiclassical methods in the study of states with large quantum numbers for theories invariant under internal symmetries. In the first part of the thesis, we study zero-temperature superfluids. These provide a gener ...

The Xi(0)(c) baryon is unstable and usually decays into charmless final states by the c -> sud transition. It can, however, also disintegrate into a pi(-) meson and a Lambda(+)(c) baryon via s quark decay or via cs -> dc weak scattering. The interplay betw ...

Beam induced vacuum effects in the future circular hadron collider beam vacuum chamber

Lotta Maria Mether

EuroCirCol is a conceptual design study of a post-LHC, Future Circular Hadron Collider (FCC-hh) with 50 TeV of beam energy and 100 km long, which aims to expand the current energy and luminosity frontiers. The vacuum chamber of the FCC-hh will have to cope ...

Electron Cloud and Synchrotron Radiation characterization of technical surfaces with the Large Hadron Collider Vacuum Pilot Sector

Elena Buratin

This PhD thesis presents the experimental study on electron cloud (EC) and synchrotron radiation (SR) phenomena affecting the LHC storage ring performance. These phenomena are one of the major issues of the LHC storage ring, generating beam instabilities, ...

A synchrotron X-ray imaging strategy to map large animal brains

Giorgio Margaritondo, Ying Chen

Mapping the large neural networks of animal and human brains is a fundamental but so far elusive task, because of the massive amount of data and the consequent prohibitively long image taking and processing times. We developed an effective strategy called ...

Operando X-ray diffraction during laser 3D printing

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Steven Van Petegem, Samy Hocine, Nicola Casati

Laser based additive manufacturing allows to build a designed shape layer-by-layer, offering versatility and flexibility to many metallurgical sectors. The fast cooling rates and repeated heat cycles depending on the laser and scanning parameters are not e ...

Post-irradiation examination of refractory metal candidates for antiproton targets at the European Laboratory for Particle Physics (CERN)

Elvis Fornasiere

The AD-target (Antiproton Decelerator Target) is the main antiparticle production element of the CERNâ s (European Organization for Nuclear Research) AD (Antiproton Decelerator) complex. Antiprotons are produced by colliding a pulsed 1.5 * 10^13 ppp (prot ...

Nonperturbative test of consistency relations and their violation

Angelo Esposito

In this paper, we verify the large scale structure consistency relations using N-body simulations, including modes in the highly nonlinear regime. These relations (pointed out by Kehagias & Riotto and Peloso & Pietroni) follow from the symmetry of the dyna ...

Novel families of SU(N) AKLT states with arbitrary self-conjugate edge states

Frédéric Mila, Samuel Gozel

Using the Matrix Product State framework, we generalize the Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki (AKLT) construction to one-dimensional spin liquids with global color SU(N) symmetry, finite correlation lengths, and edge states that can belong to any self-conjugate ...
