CMP Seminar: James Sauls: Strong-coupling theory of superfluid Helium 3

When: Thursday, September 30, 2021
4:00 PM - 5:00 PM CT

Where: Technological Institute, F160, 2145 Sheridan Road, Evanston, IL 60208 map it

Audience: Faculty/Staff - Student - Post Docs/Docs - Graduate Students

Contact: Samantha Westlake  

Group: Department of Physics and Astronomy

Category: Lectures & Meetings

Description:

Abstract: I present a strong-coupling theory for the stability and thermodynamics of the chiral A-phase of superfluid 3He based on leading order corrections to the weak-coupling BCS theory of superconductivity. The resulting analysis suggests a connection between the stability of the A phase, Mott physics and the anti-ferromagnetically ordered phase of solid 3He at the solidification pressure.

Speaker: Professor James Sauls, Northwestern University 

Host: Mehdi Zarea
