Room-Temperature Observation of Local and Nonlocal Electronic Quantum States on the Surface of Silicon
AbstractCoherent and incoherent stable electronic quantum objects are observed at room temperature due to the formation of regions with the...

Modern Approaches to Optical Potentials
This chapter presents an overview of the optical model description of nucleon-nucleus scattering and reactions based on fundamental nuclear two-body...

Quantum Information
Since its inception over a century ago, quantum mechanics has been an indispensable tool for understanding atomic structure and has been used very...

A hybrid quantum-classical method for electron-phonon systems
Interactions between electrons and phonons play a crucial role in quantum materials. Yet, there is no universal method that would simultaneously...

Ab Initio Nuclear Reaction Theory with Applications to Astrophysics
An introduction to ab initio nuclear theory with a focus on nuclear reactions is presented. After a high-level overview of ab initio approaches in...

Recent progress on Majorana in semiconductor-superconductor heterostructures—engineering and detection
Majorana zero modes (MZMs) are exotic excitations (in condensed matter systems) of fundamental scientific interest and hold great promise as the...

Local Two- and Three-Nucleon Interactions Within Chiral Effective Field Theory
In the past decade, chiral effective field theory has been the standard tool to systematically derive nuclear interactions. The most commonly used...

Phenomenology and Meson Theory of Nuclear Forces
Historically, the first fundamental idea for a theory of nuclear forces was advanced by the Japanese physicist Hideki Yukawa in 1935. He proposed...

The Superconductivity Phenomenon from the Discovery to the BCS Theory: A Storytelling Approach
Superconductors are the most bizarre among the known materials. Counterintuitive quantum–mechanical effects ensure that, below a critical...

Does filling-dependent band renormalization aid pairing in twisted bilayer graphene?
Magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (MATBG) exhibits a panoply of many-body phenomena that are intimately tied to the appearance of narrow and...

Investigations of Thin Films and Heterostructures with Low-Energy Muons
The first part of this chapter discusses the generation of slow muons (eV or less kinetic energy) to be used as a source of a tunable low-energy (...
