摘要:
Resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) is a photon-in photon-out spectroscopic technique utilizing highly intense and monochromatized X-rays to probe the excitations in materials of interest. By selectively working at the resonant thresholds of an element, collective excitations or ordered states, such as magnons, orbitons, plasmons, phonons, charge-density waves, can be probed in the energy-momentum space. Owing to its high cross-section and focused X-ray beam, RIXS is advantageous in measuring micron-size samples and nanometre-thick films.
Over the last decade, RIXS has flourished because of an order of magnitude increase in its energy resolving power. At Diamond Light Source in the UK, the I21-RIXS beamline delivers an energy resolution of 35 meV at Cu L-edge (930 eV) and 15 meV at Oxygen K-edge (532 eV) with high photon throughput. In this talk, I will introduce the principle of the technique and the recent science cases in quantum materials particularly unconventional high-temperature superconductors.

摘要:
We report on an interesting realization of the QCD axion, with mass in the range O(10) MeV. It has previously been shown that although this scenario is stringently constrained from multiple sources, the model remains viable for a range of parameters that leads to an explanation of the Atomki experiment anomaly. In this article we study in more detail the additional constraints proceeding from recent low energy experiments and study the compatibility of the allowed parameter space with the one leading to consistency of the most recent measurements of the electron anomalous magnetic moment and the fine structure constant. We further provide an ultraviolet completion of this axion variant and show the conditions under which it may lead to the observed quark masses and CKM mixing angles, and remain consistent with experimental constraints on the extended scalar sector appearing in this Standard Model extension. In particular, the decay of the Standard Model-like Higgs boson into two light axions may be relevant and leads to a novel Higgs boson signature that may be searched for at the LHC in the near future.

摘要:
Topological defects are a class of important concepts in particle cosmology. They are physical objects formed when a fundamental symmetry is spontaneously broken during the cooling of the expanding Universe. Typical topological defects include monopoles, domain walls and cosmic strings. While the first two lead to a serous cosmological problem and should be diluted by inflation, the last one is safe and have some interesting features favoured by theorists. The most important one is that it is a main source to generate cosmic background of stochastic gravitational waves (GWs). An observation of this background in the future will be helpful for us to construct a fundamental particle theory at super-high energy scale. On the other hand, biased domain walls could avoid the cosmological problem and provide another source for GWs. In this paper, I will introduce mechanisms of GWs from topological defects and discuss their connections to fundamental particle theories.

摘要:
在能带论中电荷密度波(CDW)结构转变往往和声子的不稳有关,这时人们也可以通过分析不稳的声子来定出其结构变化的情况。我们将报告2个不同的情况。(1) 超导体LaO0.5F0.5BiS2在k=(π,π0)有很强的费米面嵌套,在此处第一性原理计算也发现声子不稳,相应的总能计算也表明有双势井出现,但实验中并未发现有CDW结构转变。我们发现这是由于该材料有很强的非谐效应,原子的量子效应抑制了CDW结构转变。(2) 作为第一种表现出CDW转变的磁性kagome材料,FeGe引起了人们的关注。此前研究发现与AV3Sb5(A=K,Cs,Rb)相似,FeGe有平面内2×2的CDW转变,它也在费米能附近存在van Hove奇点(vHSs)。然而,与具有M点声子不稳的AV3Sb5不同,所有理论计算的FeGe声子频率都是正的。我们发现FeGe费米面嵌套函数的最大值在K点而不是M点。FeGe的能带具有高度三维特征,vHSs在嵌套函数中不起主导作用。我们发现由波矢M嵌套的费米面上2个波函数在同一个Fe位置有很多的权重,所以local库仑相互作用可以大大增强M点的不稳定,从而导致CDW,而由波矢K嵌套的费米面上2个本征态主要分布在不同的子晶格上,从而显著抑制了K点的不稳定性。这表明是电子关联导致了FeGe在M点的CDW结构转变。目前FeGe的具体的CDW结构还没有被确定。我们使用群论分析了FeGe的磁相互作用,发现只有4种CDW结构才能解释该体系在低温时的double cone磁结构。报告人简介:

摘要:
1965年,Fulde理论预言,超导体中如果库珀对的动量足够大就可以在超导能隙中产生准粒子,从而导致出一种特殊的费米面。但由于普通超导体库珀对动量足够大时,产生准粒子的同时,库珀对也会破裂而失去超导,因此要观察到 超导费米面实验上非常困难。该预言一直没有被证实。我们将拓扑表面态费米速度极高的独特优点应用到超导研究中来,设计并制备出拓扑绝缘体/超导复合体系,提出了外场调控库伯对动量新方法,最终在实验上实现了超导 “分段费米面”。该工作证实了50多年前理论预言,并发现可以用磁场方向和大小来调节“分段费米面”的形状和大小,还能调控拓扑性,构建新的拓扑超导,并开辟了调控物态的新方法。

摘要:
The calculation of tunneling actions, that control the exponential suppression of the decay of metastable phases (like the unstable electroweak vacuum), can be reformulated as an elementary variational problem in field space. This alternative approach circumvents the use of bounces in Euclidean space by introducing an auxiliary function, a tunneling potential Vt that connects smoothly the metastable and stable phases of the field potential V. The tunneling action is obtained as the integral in field space of an action density that is a simple function of Vt and V and can be considered as a generalization of the thin-wall action to arbitrary potentials. This formalism provides new useful handles for the theoretical understanding of different features of vacuum decay, can be easily extended to include gravitational effects in an elegant way and has a number of interesting properties and applications that I will discuss.

10 Novel Orbital Physics – Unconventional Bose-Einstein Condensation, and itinerant Ferromagnetism in optical lattices

摘要:
Orbital is a degree of freedom independent of charge and spin. It plays an important role in physical properties of transition-metal-oxides. The recent developments of cold atom systems in optical lattices have opened up an opportunity to study novel features of orbital physics that are not easily accessible in solid state systems. We predicted that cold bosons, when pumped into high orbital bands of optical lattices, exhibit a class of novel superfluid states spontaneously breaking time-reversal symmetry. In analogy to unconventional superconductivity, their complex-valued condensate wavefunctions possess unconventional symmetries beyond the scope of “no-node” theorem for most states of bosons. This class of unconventional Bose-Einstein condensations have been experimentally realized by a few prominent experimental groups. On the other hand, itinerant ferromagnetism (FM), i.e., FM based on Fermi surfaces instabilities of mobile electrons (fermions), is a hard-core problem of strong correlation physics. The well-known Stoner criterion overestimates the FM tendency by neglecting correlation effects. Furthermore, the paramagnetic metal phase above the Curie temperature, i.e., the Curie-Weiss metal state, is a long-standing challenge. It exhibits a dichotomic nature: The spin channel is incoherent, i.e., local moment-like, while the charge channel remains coherent. In spite of these difficulties, we proved a series of theorems setting up the ground state FM phase in the p-orbital bands. The Curie-Weiss metal phase and the critical scalings of the FM transitions are studied via the sign-problem free quantum Monte-Carlo simulations at high numerical precisions. These results also shed light on the mechanism of itinerant FM and Curie-Weise metal in solid state orbital systems.

11 Search for New Physics with Atomic Magnetometers

摘要:
Tabletop precision measurements provide powerful tools to search for new physics beyond the standard model, such as dark matter and exotic spin-dependent interactions (5th force). The exotic spin-dependent interaction may be mediated by new ultralight bosons, such as axion or Z', which are also proposed as dark matter candidates. In this talk, I will introduce ultra-high sensitivity alkali-noble gas atomic magnetometers and their application in searching for exotic spin-dependent force. Our recent experiments set stringent limits on different terms of exotic forces between electron-electron, neutron-neutron, or electron-proton. These experimental results represent orders of magnitude improvement by other lab-based experiments. For the Z' boson-mediated term, our result can surpass the limits set by astrophysical methods.
