Broken versus Non-Broken Time Reversal Symmetry: Irreversibility and Response
We review some approaches to macroscopic irreversibility from reversible microscopic dynamics, introducing the contribution of time dependent perturbations within the framework of recent developments in non-equilibrium statistical physics. We show that situations commonly assumed to violate the time reversal symmetry (presence of magnetic fields, rotating reference frames, and some time depende...
متن کاملInteractions and broken time-reversal symmetry in chaotic quantum dots
When treating interactions in quantum dots within a random-phase-approximation sRPAd-like approach, time-reversal symmetry plays an important role as higher-order terms—the Cooper series—need to be included when this symmetry is present. Here we consider model quantum dots in a magnetic field weak enough to leave the dynamics of the dot chaotic, but strong enough to break time-reversal symmetry...
متن کاملDensities of states, moments, and maximally broken time-reversal symmetry
Power moments, modified moments, and optimized moments are powerful tools for solving microscopic models of macroscopic systems; however, the expansion of the density of states as a continued fraction does not converge to the macroscopic limit point-wise in energy with increasing numbers of moments. In this work the moment problem is further constrained by minimal lifetimes or maximal breaking ...
متن کاملFunctional superconductor interfaces from broken time-reversal symmetry.
The breaking of time-reversal symmetry in a triplet superconductor Josephson junction is shown to cause a magnetic instability of the tunneling barrier. Using a Ginzburg-Landau analysis of the free energy, we predict that this novel functional behavior reflects the formation of an exotic Josephson state, distinguished by the existence of fractional flux quanta at the barrier. The crucial role o...
متن کاملExcitons in carbon nanotubes with broken time-reversal symmetry.
Near-infrared magneto-optical spectroscopy of single-walled carbon nanotubes reveals two absorption peaks with an equal strength at high magnetic fields (>55 T). We show that the peak separation is determined by the Aharonov-Bohm phase due to the tube-threading magnetic flux, which breaks the time-reversal symmetry and lifts the valley degeneracy. This field-induced symmetry breaking thus overc...
