Dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs) extend the paradigm of equilibrium criticality to the temporal evolution of quantum systems. Rather than being driven by static temperature or other ...

In this work, the researchers theoretically explore how quantum materials can transition continuously from one ordered state to another, for example, from a magnetic phase to a phase with crystalline ...

Two research teams led by Academician GUO Guangcan, headed by Prof. SHI Baosen and Prof. DING Dongsheng from University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of Chinese Academy of Science, with ...

Researchers in the Department of Theoretical Physics at Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Mumbai, have discovered that instead of manipulating every component or modifying interactions in ...
