Physicists have long been fascinated by the concept of symmetry breaking, a fundamental principle in physical sciences that ...

Phase transitions, like water freezing into ice, are a familiar part of our world. But in quantum systems, they can behave even more dramatically, with quantum properties such as Heisenberg ...

Like any substance, neutron stars have an equation of state, or more precisely a phase diagram, such as that for water. The properties of a neutron star are determined by quantum chromodynamics ...

Dissipative phase transitions (DPTs) in open quantum systems occur due to the interplay between unitary evolution, external ...

Measurements on quantum particles produce random outcomes ... The authors investigate the nonequilibrium steadystate phase diagram of a two-dimensional dissipative Heisenberg model in the absence ...
