The Pomeranchuk effect*
A central part of the story of the discovery of superfluid 3He is the cooling technique used for the experiments, the Pomeranchuk effect. Although it is not an especially useful technique for obtaining low temperatures today, it contains my favorite example of the use of the Clausius-Clapeyron equation. The cooling technique is fun to describe in undergraduate physics classes on thermodynamics....

Recently we have shown that Y bInCu4 and related compounds present a solid state Pomeranchuk effect. These systems have a first order volume transition where a local moment phase coexists with a renormalized Fermi liquid in analogy with 3 He at its melting curve. We demonstrate here experimentally that the solid state Pomeranchuk effect, controlled by a magnetic field, can be used to produce co...

At very high energies, the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal effect reduces the cross sections for electron bremsstrahlung and photon e + e − pair production. The fractional electron energy loss and pair production cross sections drop as the energy increases. In contrast, the cross sections for photonuclear interactions grow with energy. In solids and liquids, at energies above 10 20 eV, photonuclear r...
متن کاملHexatic and mesoscopic phases in a 2D quantum coulomb system.
We study the Wigner crystal melting in a two-dimensional quantum system of distinguishable particles interacting via the 1/r Coulomb potential. We use quantum Monte Carlo methods to calculate its phase diagram, locate the Wigner crystal region, and analyze its instabilities towards the liquid phase. We discuss the role of quantum effects in the critical behavior of the system, and compare our n...
متن کاملGains from diversification on convex combinations: A majorization and stochastic dominance approach
By incorporating both majorization theory and stochastic dominance theory, this paper presents a general theory and a unifying framework for determining the diversification preferences of risk-averse investors and conditions under which they would unanimously judge a particular asset to be superior. In particular, we develop a theory for comparing the preferences of different convex combination...
