Physicists have identified a new superfluid phase in a class of quantum systems that, until recently, looked too unstable and ...

A stable "exceptional fermionic superfluid," a new quantum phase that intrinsically hosts singularities known as exceptional ...

For more than a century, schoolbook physics has divided matter into neat categories like solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. A ...

How to characterize a topological phase is one of the most fundamental issues in the field of topological quantum physics. Conventionally, a topological phase is characterized by a topological ...
