Duality–invariant Quantum Field Theories of Charges and Monopoles

We present a manifestly Lorentz– and SO(2)–Duality–invariant local Quantum Field Theory of electric charges, Dirac magnetic monopoles and dyons. The manifest invariances are achieved by means of the PST–mechanism. The dynamics for classical point particles is described by an action functional living on a circle, if the Dirac–Schwinger quantization condition for electric and magnetic charges hol...

Possible observation of highly itinerant quantum magnetic monopoles in the frustrated pyrochlore Yb2Ti2O7

The low-energy elementary excitations in frustrated quantum magnets have fascinated researchers for decades. In frustrated Ising magnets on a pyrochlore lattice possessing macroscopically degenerate spin-ice ground states, the excitations have been discussed in terms of classical magnetic monopoles, which do not contain quantum fluctuations. Here we report unusual behaviours of magneto-thermal ...

Time-Resolved Observation of Thermalization in an Isolated Quantum System.

We use trapped atomic ions forming a hybrid Coulomb crystal and exploit its phonons to study an isolated quantum system composed of a single spin coupled to an engineered bosonic environment. We increase the complexity of the system by adding ions and controlling coherent couplings and, thereby, we observe the emergence of thermalization: Time averages of spin observables approach microcanonica...

Quantum Nonabelian Monopoles

There are several reasons to be interested in quantum, nonabelian monopoles. First, if confinement of QCD is a sort of dual superconductor, it is likely to be one of nonabelian variety. Then the effective degrees of freedom involve nonabelian, and not, better understood abelian monopoles. Second, the phenomenon of confinement has to do with fully quantum mechanical, and not semi-classical, beha...

Energy states and exchange energy of coupled double quantum dot in a magnetic field

The ground state energies of two interacting electrons confined in a coupled double quantum dot (DQD) presented in a magnetic field has been calculated by solving the relative Hamiltonian using variational and exact diagonalization methods. The singlet-triplet transitions in the angular momentum and spin of the quantum dot ground state had been shown .We have studied the magnetic field versus c...
