Simulating complex quantum networks with time crystals

Crystals arise as the result of the breaking of a spatial translation symmetry. Similarly, translation symmetries can also be broken in time so that discrete time crystals appear. Here, we introduce a method to describe, characterize, and explore the physical phenomena related to this phase of matter using tools from graph theory. The analysis of the graphs allows to visualizing time-crystalline order and to analyze features of the quantum system. For example, we explore in detail the melting process of a minimal model of a period-2 discrete time crystal and describe it in terms of the evolution of the associated graph structure. We show that during the melting process, the network evolution exhibits an emergent preferential attachment mechanism, directly associated with the existence of scale-free networks. Thus, our strategy allows us to propose a previously unexplored far-reaching application of time crystals as a quantum simulator of complex quantum networks.

Highly anisotropic interlayer magnetoresistance in ZrSiS nodal-line Dirac semimetal

We instigate the angle-dependent magnetoresistance (AMR) of the layered nodal-line Dirac semimetal ZrSiS for the in-plane and out-of-plane current directions. This material has recently revealed an intriguing butterfly-shaped in-plane AMR that is not well understood. Our measurements of the polar out-of-plane AMR show a surprisingly different response with a pronounced cusp-like feature. The maximum of the cusp-like anisotropy is reached when the magnetic field is oriented in the $a$-$b$ plane. Moreover, the AMR for the azimuthal out-of-plane current direction exhibits a very strong four-fold $a$-$b$ plane anisotropy. Combining the Fermi surfaces calculated from first principles with the Boltzmann's semiclassical transport theory we reproduce and explain all the prominent features of the unusual behavior of the in-plane and out-of-plane AMR. We are also able to clarify the origin of the strong non-saturating transverse magnetoresistance as an effect of imperfect charge-carrier compensation and open orbits. Finally, by combining our theoretical model and experimental data we estimate the average relaxation time of $2.6\times10^{-14}$~s and the mean free path of $15$~nm at 1.8~K in our samples of ZrSiS.

Modification of Eckart theory of relativistic dissipative fluid by introducing extended matching conditions

We deal with a novel approach to formulation of the relativistic dissipative hydrodynamics by extending the so-called matching conditions widely used in the literature. The form of the non-equilibrium entropy current can be determined by requiring thermodynamical stability of the entropy current under extended matching conditions. We derive equations of motion for the relativistic dissipative fluid based on the Eckart theory and show that linearized equations obtained from them are stable against small perturbations. It is also shown that the required fluid stability conditions are related to the causality of the model.

Relativistic hydrodynamical model in the presence of long-range correlations

Effects of dynamical long-range correlations over a fluid cell size scale on a relativistic fluid are discussed. It is shown that such correlations among the fluid elements introduced into hydrodynamical model induce some weak dissipation and viscosity into the fluid. The influence of the long-range correlations on the entropy current is also discussed.

Nonextensive hydrodynamics for relativistic heavy-ion collisions

The nonextensive one-dimensional version of a hydrodynamical model for multiparticle production processes is proposed and discussed. It is based on nonextensive statistics assumed in the form proposed by Tsallis and characterized by a nonextensivity parameter $q$. In this formulation the parameter $q$ characterizes some specific form of local equilibrium which is characteristic for the nonextensive thermodynamics and which replaces the usual local thermal equilibrium assumption of the usual hydrodynamical models. We argue that there is correspondence between the perfect nonextensive hydrodynamics and the usual dissipative hydrodynamics. It leads to simple expression for dissipative entropy current and allows for predictions for the ratio of bulk and shear viscosities to entropy density, $ζ/s$ and $η/s$, to be made.

Enhancement of the irreversibility field by carbon substitution in single crystal MgB$_2$

We report the detailed study of the irreversibility field {\hirr} of single crystals of Mg(B$_{1-x}$C$_{x}$)$_2$ ($x$=0, 2, 3.5, 5 and 7%) in strong magnetic fields of up to 40 T. High sensitive torque measurements revealed that the {\hirr} is greatly enhanced by a factor of two ($μ_{0}${\hirr}(0)$\simeq$33 T in $x$=5%) by carbon substitution compared to the pristine {\mgb} owing to a reduction in the inplane coherence length. We also observed the temperature-dependent {\hirr} anisotropy in all the carbon contents. This fact strongly suggests that the two-gap superconductivity of {\mgb} is less influenced by a small amount of carbon substitution. We discuss these results focusing on the impact of carrier doping and impurity scattering on two-gap superconductor.

Field-Induced SDW and Butterfly Spectrum in Three Dimensions

Landau's quantization for incompletely nested Fermi surfaces is known to give rise to magnetic-field-induced spin-density waves(FISDW) in two-dimensional organic metals. Here we show that three-dimensional(3D) systems can have 3D-specific series of FISDW phases as energetically stable states, for which we clarify how and why they appear as the magnetic field is tilted. Each phase is characterized by quantized Hall effect for each of $σ_{xy}$ and $σ_{zx}$ that reside on a fractal spectrum like Hofstadter's butterfly.

Phase Diagram for the Hofstadter butterfly and integer quantum Hall effect in three dimensions

We give a perspective on the Hofstadter butterfly (fractal energy spectrum in magnetic fields), which we have shown to arise specifically in three-dimensional(3D) systems in our previous work. (i) We first obtain the `phase diagram' on a parameter space of the transfer energies and the magnetic field for the appearance of Hofstadter's butterfly spectrum in anisotropic crystals in 3D. (ii) We show that the orientation of the external magnetic field can be arbitrary to have the 3D butterfly. (iii) We show that the butterfly is beyond the semiclassical description. (iv) The required magnetic field for a representative organic metal is estimated to be modest ($\sim 40$ T) if we adopt higher Landau levels for the butterfly. (v) We give a simpler way of deriving the topological invariants that represent the quantum Hall numbers (i.e., two Hall conductivity in 3D, $σ_{xy}, σ_{zx}$, in units of $e^2/h$).

Event-by-event fluctuations in hydrodynamical description of heavy-ion collisions

Effects caused by the event-by-event fluctuation of the initial conditions in hydrodynamical description of high-energy heavy-ion collisions are investigated. Non-negligible effects appear for several observable quantities, even for a fixed impact parameter $\vec b $. They are sensitive to the equation of state, being the dispersions of the observable quantities in general smaller when the QGP phase appears at the beginning of hydrodynamic evolution than when the fluid remains hadron gas during whole the evolution.

Event-by-event analysis of ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions in smoothed particle hydrodynamics

The method of smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is applied for ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The SPH method has several advantages in studying event-by-event fluctuations, which attract much attention in looking for quark gluon plasma (QGP) formation, because it gives a rather simple scheme for solving hydrodynamical equations. Using initial conditions for Au+Au collisions at RHIC energy produced by NeXus event generator, we solve the hydrodynamical equation in event-by-event basis and study the fluctuations of hadronic observables such as dN/dy due to the initial conditions. In particular, fluctuations of elliptic flow coefficient v2 is investigated for both the cases, with and without QGP formation. This can be used as an additional test of QGP formation.

Hofstadter butterfly and integer quantum Hall effect in three dimensions

For a three-dimensional lattice in magnetic fields we have shown that the hopping along the third direction, which normally tends to smear out the Landau quantization gaps, can rather give rise to a fractal energy spectram akin to Hofstadter's butterfly when a criterion, found here by mapping the problem to two dimensions, is fulfilled by anisotropic (quasi-one-dimensional) systems. In 3D the angle of the magnetic field plays the role of the field intensity in 2D, so that the butterfly can occur in much smaller fields. The mapping also enables us to calculate the Hall conductivity, in terms of the topological invariant in the Kohmoto-Halperin-Wu's formula, where each of $σ_{xy}, σ_{zx}$ is found to be quantized.

Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics for Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions

The method of smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is developped appropriately for the study of relativistic heavy ion collision processes. In order to describe the flow of a high energy but low baryon number density fluid, the entropy is taken as the SPH base. We formulate the method in terms of the variational principle. Several examples show that the method is very promising for the study of hadronic flow in RHIC physics.

Coulomb Effect: A Possible Probe for the Evolution of Hadronic Matter

Electromagnetic field produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions contains much useful information, because the field can be directly related to the motion of the matter in the whole stage of the reaction. One can divide the total electromagnetic field into three parts, i.e., the contributions from the incident nuclei, non-participating nucleons and charged fluid, the latter consisting of strongly interacting hadrons or quarks. Parametrizing the space-time evolution of the charged fluid based on hydrodynamic model, we study the development of the electromagnetic field which accompanies the high-energy heavy-ion collisions. We found that the incident nuclei bring a rather strong electromagnetic field to the interaction region of hadrons or quarks over a few fm after the collision. On the other hand, the observed charged hadrons' spectra are mostly affected (Coulomb effect) by the field of the charged fluid. We compare the result of our model with experimental data and found that the model reproduces them well. The pion yield ratio pi^-/pi+ at a RHIC energy, Au+Au 100+100 GeV/nucleon, is also predicted.

Analysis of Bose-Einstein correlations in e+e- -> W+W- events including final state interactions

Recently DELPHI Collaboration reported new data on Bose-Einstein correlations (BEC) measured in e+e- -> W^+W^- events. Apparently no enhancement has been observed. We have analyzed these data including final state interactions (FSI) of both Coulomb and strong (s-wave) origin and found that there is enhancement in BEC but it is overshadowed by the FSI which are extremely important for those events. We have found the following values for the size of the interaction range beta and the degree of coherence lambda: beta=0.87 +/- 0.31fm and lambda=1.19 +/- 0.48, respectively.

Statistical model analysis of multiparticle correlations in e^+e^- annihilation

A new statistical model for multiparticle production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation is proposed based on the idea of the longitudinal phase space with limited transverse momentum. The longitudinal rapidity space is divided into cells of equal size in order to take into account the Bose-Einstein correlations(BEC) with a finite correlation length $δy$. The maximum entropy method is used to determine the probability distributions of the final state pions (or $ρ$ mesons) for a given mean multiplicity, mean transverse momentum and mean total energy. Event simulation based on our model is performed in two extreme cases, a $π$-model and a $ρ$-model. The $π$-model assumes that only pions are produced directly. On the other hand, the $ρ$-model assumes that only $ρ$ mesons are produced directly and they decay into pions. A good overall fit to experimental data from PETRA to LEP energy regions is obtained for $δy$ ranging from 0.6 to 1.2 in the $π$-model. We found that the BEC plays a very important role to reproduce various correlation data. In some correlation data, resonance effect and conservation laws are also important.

Analyses of multiplicity distributions of e^+e^- and e-p collisions by means of modified negative binomial distribution and Laguerre-type distribution: Interrelation of solutions in stochastic processes

A pure birth stochastic process with several initial conditions is considered.We analyze multiplicity distributions of e^+e^- collisions and e-p collisions, usigthe Modified Negative Binomial Distribution (MNBD) and the Laguerre-type distribution. Several multiplicity distributions show the same minimum χ^2's values in analyses by means of two formulas: In these cases, we find that a parameter N contained in the MNBD becomes to be large. Taking large N limit in the MNBD, we find that the Laguerre-type distribution can be derived from it. Moreover, from the generalized MNBD we can also derive the generalized Glauber-Lachs formula. Finally stochastic properties of QCD and multiparticle dynamics are discussed.

Analyses of multiplicity distributions by means of the Modified Negative Binomial Distribution and its KNO scaling function

We analyze various data of multiplicity distributions by means of the Modified Negative Binomial Distribution (MNBD) and its KNO scaling function, since this MNBD explains the oscillating behavior of the cumulant moment observed in e^+e^- annihilations, h-h collisions and e-p collisions. In the present analyses, we find that the MNBD(discrete distributions) describes the data of charged particles in e^+e^- annihilations much better than the Negative Binomial Distribution (NBD). To investigate stochastic property of the MNBD, we derive the KNO scaling function from the discrete distribution by using a straightforward method and the Poisson transform. It is a new KNO function expressed by the Laguerre polynomials. In analyses of the data by using the KNO scaling function, we find that the MNBD describes the data better than the gamma function.Thus, it can be said that the MNBD is one of useful formulas as well as NBD.
