The 2D Fully Frustrated XY(FFXY) class of models is shown to contain a new groundstate in addition to the checkerboard groundstate of the standard 2D XY model. The spin configuration of this additional groundstate is obtained and its connection to a broken Z2-symmetry explained. This means that the class of 2D FFXY models belongs within a U(1) ⊗ Z2 ⊗ Z2-symmetry phase-transition representation. The phase diagram is reviewed and the central charges of the four multicritical points described. The implications for the standard 2D FFXY-model are discussed and elucidated, in particular with respect to the long standing controversy concerning the phase transitions of the standard 2D FFXY-model.

AbstractThe main purpose of the experiment was a thermodynamic research with use of the electric methods chosen. The substance examined was olive oil. The paper presents the resistance, capacitive reactance, relative permittivity and resistivity of olive. Compression was applied with two mean velocities up to 450 MPa. The results were shown as functions of pressure and time and depicted on the impedance phase diagram. The three first order phase transitions have been detected. All the changes in material parameters were observed during phase transitions. The material parameters measured turned out to be the much more sensitive long-time phase transition factors than temperature. The values of material parameters and their dependence on pressure and time were compared with the molecular structure, arrangement of molecules and interactions between them. Knowledge about olive oil parameters change with pressure and its phase transitions is very important for olive oil production and conservation.

The Nambu–Bogoliubov–de Gennes method is applied to the problem of superconducting QCD. The effective quark–quark interaction is described within the framework of the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model. The details of the phase diagram are given as a function of the strength of the quark–quark coupling constant G′. It is found that there is no superconducting phase transition when one uses the relation between the coupling constants G′ and G of the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model which follows from the Fierz transformation. However, for other values of G′ one can find a rich phase structure containing both the chiral and the superconducting phase transitions.

We study ground state pairwise entanglement within one-dimensional spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic J1–J2 model with competing interactions. Contrary to some claims we found that frustration does not increase entanglement. Concurrence of nearest and next nearest neighbors are found to show abrupt change at phase transition points. We also show that the concurrence can be used to classify the phase diagram of the model in anisotropy–frustration plane.

ABSTRACTA surface phase transition associated with a surface miscibility gap has been observed on the (111) surface of Cu-Ag alloys both in computer simulations and in experimental measurements of surface composition. This transition is characterized by an abrupt change in surface composition associated with changes in either bulk composition or temperature.The simulations have revealed that the transition from a Cu-rich to a Ag-rich surface phase is accompanied by interesting changes in surface structure. The experiments show that the surface critical temperature lies somewhere between 505 and 560°C.

Abstract The GoogLeNet model can completely split the overlapped phase transitions in the superconducting nanowire arrays under Josephson interaction. In the presence of the phase fluctuations in superconducting nanowires array, the electrical resistance of the superconducting nanowires is always non-zero unless the system undergoes Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition where the superconducting vortices and anti-vortices form pairs. The two-dimensional XY model can mimic the superconducting transition temperature Tc and the BKT transition temperature TBKT by observing the heat capacity anomalies upon cooling. If the Josephson coupling across the nanowires is strong, the heat capacity anomalies almost overlap with each other so that the traditional curve-fitting techniques are difficult to completely distinguish between the Tc and the TBKT. To solve this issue, we apply an artificial-intelligence technique to completely split the overlapped heat capacity anomalies. After the GoogLeNet-assisted phase transition detector is built, the GoogLeNet model can learn from the features of the phase transitions and then interpret the Tc and TBKT in the ‘unseen’ system precisely. Our work opens a path for the GoogLeNet model to enter the world of superconductivity.

The Raman spectra of four crystals of TbFe3-хGax (BO3) 4 solid solutions (x from 0 to 0.54) were studied in the temperature range from 8 to 350 K. The temperatures of structural phase transitions were determined. The observed spectral behavior is characteristic to condensation and restoration of soft modes. Soft modes are associated with a structural phase transition from the R32 phase to the P3121 phase. The Compositions-Temperature phase diagram was constructed

AbstractLipid miscibility phase separation has long been considered to be a central element of cell membrane organization. More recently, protein condensation phase transitions, into three-dimensional droplets or in two-dimensional lattices on membrane surfaces, have emerged as another important organizational principle within cells. Here, we reconstitute the LAT:Grb2:SOS protein condensation on the surface of giant unilamellar vesicles capable of undergoing lipid phase separations. Our results indicate that assembly of the protein condensate on the membrane surface can drive lipid phase separation. This phase transition occurs isothermally and is governed by tyrosine phosphorylation on LAT. Furthermore, we observe that the induced lipid phase separation drives localization of the SOS substrate, K-Ras, into the LAT:Grb2:SOS protein condensate.Statement of SignificanceProtein condensation phase transitions are emerging as an important organizing principles in cells. One such condensate plays a key role in T cell receptor signaling. Immediately after receptor activation, multivalent phosphorylation of the adaptor protein LAT at the plasma membrane leads to networked assembly of a number of signaling proteins into a two-dimensional condensate on the membrane surface. In this study, we demonstrate that LAT condensates in reconstituted vesicles are sufficient to drive lipid phase separation. This lipid reorganization drives another key downstream signaling molecule, Ras, into the LAT condensates. These results show that the LAT condensation phase transition, which is actively controlled by phosphorylation reactions, extends its influence to control lipid phase separation in the underlying membrane.

We compare two different notions of dynamical phase transitions in closed quantum systems. The first is identified through the time-averaged value of the equilibrium-order parameter, whereas the second corresponds to non-analyticities in the time behaviour of the Loschmidt echo. By exactly solving the dynamics of the infinite-range XY model, we show that in this model non-analyticities of the Loschmidt echo are not connected to standard dynamical phase transitions and are not robust against quantum fluctuations. Furthermore, we show that the existence of either of the two dynamical transitions is not necessarily connected to the equilibrium quantum phase transition.

The critical behavior at the phase transition of the ferromagnetic two-dimensional anisotropic Ising model with next-nearest neighbor (NNN) couplings in the presence of the field is determined using mainly Monte Carlo (MC) method. This method is used to investigate the phase diagram of the model and to verify the existence of a divergence at null temperature which often appears in two-dimensional systems. We analyze also the influence of the report of the NNN interactions [Formula: see text] and the magnetic field [Formula: see text] on the critical temperature of the system, and we show that the critical temperature depends on the magnetic field for positive values of the interaction. Finally, we have investigated other thermodynamical qualities such as the magnetic susceptibility [Formula: see text]. It has been shown that their thermal behavior depends qualitatively and quantitatively on the strength of NNN interactions and the magnetic field.
