Topological defects in Spin Density Waves
The rich order parameter of Spin Density Waves allows for an unusual object of a complex topological nature: a half-integer dislocation combined with a semi-vortex of the staggered magnetization. It becomes energetically preferable to ordinary dislocation due to enhanced Coulomb interactions in the semiconducting regime. Generation of these objects changes e.g. the narrow band noise frequency. ...
متن کاملElastic interactions between topological defects in chiral nematic shells.
We present a self-consistent and robust theoretical model to investigate elastic interactions between topological defects in liquid crystal shells. Accounting for the nonconcentric nature of the shell in a simple manner, we are able to successfully and accurately explain and predict the positions of the defects, most relevant in the context of colloidal self-assembly. We calibrate and test our ...
متن کاملTopological Phononic Crystals with One-Way Elastic Edge Waves.
We report a new type of phononic crystals with topologically nontrivial band gaps for both longitudinal and transverse polarizations, resulting in protected one-way elastic edge waves. In our design, gyroscopic inertial effects are used to break the time-reversal symmetry and realize the phononic analogue of the electronic quantum (anomalous) Hall effect. We investigate the response of both hex...
متن کاملTopological Derivative for the Inverse Scattering of Elastic Waves
To establish an alternative analytical framework for the elastic-wave imaging of underground cavities, the focus of this study is an extension of the concept of topological derivative, rooted in elastostatics and shape optimization, to three-dimensional elastodynamics involving semiinfinite and infinite solids. The main result of the proposed boundary integral approach is a formula for topologi...
متن کاملTopological Defects in Cosmology
Topological Defects like magnetic monopoles, cosmic strings, domain walls, etc., could have formed during symmetry breaking phase transitions in the early universe. We give an overview of the implications of topological defects for cosmology, with particular emphasis on their possible role as sources of the extremely high energy cosmic rays detected in several recent cosmic ray experiments; the...
