Measuring the Breaking of Lepton Flavour Universality in $B\to K^*\ell^+\ell^-$

description: We propose measurements of weighted differences of the angular observables in the rare decays $B \to K^*\ell^+\ell^-$. The proposed observables are very sensitive to the difference between the Wilson coefficients $\mathcal{C}_9^{(e)}$ and $\mathcal{C}_9^{(μ)}$ for decays into electrons and muons, respectively. At the same time, the charm-induced hadronic contributions are kinematically suppressed to $\lesssim 7\% (4\%)$ in the region $1\,$GeV$^2 \leq q^2 \leq 6\,$GeV$^2$, as long as LFU breaking occurs only in $\mathcal{C}^{(\ell)}_{9}$. This suppression becomes stronger for the region of low hadronic recoil, $q^2 \geq 15\,$GeV$^2$.

description: We report on a variety of standard techniques used by New Horizons including a solar ultraviolet occultation, ultraviolet airglow observations, and high-phase look-back particulate search imaging to search for an atmosphere around Pluto's large moon Charon during its flyby in July 2015. Analyzing these datasets, no evidence for a present day atmosphere has been found for 14 potential atomic and molecular species, all of which are now constrained to have pressures below 0.3 nanobar, as we describe below, these are much more stringent upper limits than the previously available 15-110 nanobar constraints (e.g., Sicardy et al. 2006); for example, we find a 3$σ$ upper limit for an N$_2$ atmosphere on Charon is 4.2 picobars and a 3$σ$ upper limit for the brightness of any atmospheric haze on Charon of I/F=2.6x10$^{-5}$. A radio occultation search for an atmosphere around Charon was also conducted by New Horizons but will be published separately by other authors.

description: The measurement of gamma rays from the diffuse afterglow of radioactivity originating in massive-star nucleosynthesis is considered a laboratory for testing models, when specific stellar groups are investigated, at known distance and with well-constrained stellar population. Regions which have been exploited for such studies include Cygnus, Carina, Orion, and Scorpius-Centaurus. The Orion region hosts the Orion OB1 association and its subgroups at about 450~pc distance. We report the detection of $^{26}$Al gamma rays from this region with INTEGRAL/SPI.

description: Background: Vitamin D deficiency with related consequences to human health has growing interest to military specific researchers worldwide. Many specific conditions could put soldiers in to the higher risk of vitamin D deficiency. Under high level of physical pressure during military training might increase the need of vitamin D in human body and therefore supplementation with vitamin D could be crucial for general health and physical fitness. Study Design: Longitudinal, triple-blinded, randomized, controlled trial. Methods: 113 men conscripts from the Estonian Army were randomized into two vitamin D supplementation groups: 58 to an 4000 IU and 58 to an 600 IU group. The length of the follow-up was ten months, from July 2021 until May 2022. Physical fitness and hand grip tests were performed 3 times and blood serum (25(OH)D), parathyroid hormone, calcium, ionized calcium values were measured 4 times during the study period. Results: The 600IU group had a significantly lower mean value of 25(OH)D in all time points during the study compared to 4000IU group (p<0.001) except baseline. Non of the study subjects in the Group A 600IU reached sufficient level of 25(OH)D in January and May. 61.3% in the 600IU and 30.6% 4000IU group had 25(OH)D levels under 50 nmol/L in May. No statistically significant differences found in the body weight and vitamin D correlation analysis in any time point on between study groups. No statistically significant differences in PTH, i-Ca were found between study groups at any time point except Ca results. No significant differences at any time points were revealed in the physical fitness test and hand grip strength tests except in non-dominant hand grip test in October. Conclusion: Ten months vitamin D3 4000IU supplementation decreased risk of vitamin D deficiency but had no effect to physical fitness compared to low dosage vitamin D supplementation.

description: Superconducting flux qubits are a promising candidate for realizing quantum information processing and quantum simulations. Such devices behave like artificial atoms, with the advantage that one can easily tune the "atoms" internal properties. Here, by harnessing this flexibility, we propose a technique to minimize the inhomogeneous broadening of a large ensemble of flux qubits by tuning only the external flux. In addition, as an example of many-body physics in such an ensemble, we show how to observe superradiance, and its quadratic scaling with ensemble size, using a tailored microwave control pulse that takes advantage of the inhomogeneous broadening itself to excite only a sub-ensemble of the qubits. Our scheme opens up an approach to using superconducting circuits to explore the properties of quantum many-body systems.

description: Manipulation of magnetization with ultrashort laser pulses is promising for information storage device applications. The dynamic of the magnetization response depends on the energy transfer from the photons to the spins during the initial laser excitation. A material of special interest for magnetic storage is FePt nanoparticles , on which optical writing with optical angular momentum was demonstrated recently by Lambert et al., although the mechanism remained unclear. Here we investigate experimentally and theoretically the all-optical switching of FePt nanoparticles. We show that the magnetization switching is a stochastic process. We develop a complete multiscale model which allows us to optimize the number of laser shots needed to write the magnetization of high anisotropy FePt nanoparticles in our experiments. We conclude that only angular momentum induced optically by the inverse Faraday effect will provide switching with one single femtosecond laser pulse.

description: We present theoretical constraints for the formation of the newly discovered dark star clusters (DSCs) with high mass-to-light (M/L) ratios, from Taylor et al (2015). These compact stellar systems photometrically resemble globular clusters (GCs) but have dynamical M/L ratios of ~ 10 - 100, closer to the expectations for dwarf galaxies. The baryonic properties of the dark star clusters (DSCs) suggest their host dark matter halos likely virialized at high redshift with M > 10^8 M_sun. We use a new set of high-resolution N-body simulations of Centaurus A to determine if there is a set of z=0 subhalos whose properties are in line with these observations. While we find such a set of subhalos, when we extrapolate the dark matter density profiles into the inner 20 pc, no dark matter halo associated with Centaurus A in our simulations, at any redshift, can replicate the extremely high central mass densities of the DSCs. Among the most likely options for explaining 10^5 - 10^7 M_sun within 10 pc diameter subhalos is the presence of a central massive black hole. We, therefore, propose that the DSCs are remnant cusps of stellar systems surrounding the central black holes of dwarf galaxies which have been almost completely destroyed by interactions with Centaurus A.

description: This year the discovery of femtosecond demagnetization by laser pulses is 20 years old. For the first time this milestone work by Bigot and coworkers gave insight in a very direct way into the time scales of microscopic interactions that connect the spin and electron system. While intense discussions in the field were fueled by the complexity of the processes in the past, it now became evident that it is a puzzle of many different parts. Rather than giving an overview that has been presented in previous reviews on ultrafast processes in ferromagnets, this perspective will show that with our current depth of knowledge the first real applications are on their way: THz spintronics and all-optical spin manipulation are becoming more and more feasible. The aim of this perspective is to point out where we can connect the different puzzle pieces of understanding gathered over 20 years to develop novel applications. based on many observations in a large number of experiments. Differences in the theoretical models arise from the localized and delocalized nature of ferromagnetism. Transport effects are intrinsically non-local in spintronic devices and at interfaces. We review the need for multiscale modeling to address processes starting from electronic excitation of the spin system on the picometer length scale and sub-femtosecond time scale, to spin wave generation, and towards the modeling of ultrafast phase transitions that altogether determine the response time of the ferromagnetic system. Today, our current understanding gives rise to the first real applications of ultrafast spin physics for ultrafast magnetism control: THz spintronic devices. This makes the field of ultrafast spin-dynamics an emerging topic open for many researchers right now.

description: The graph translation operator has been defined with good spectral properties in mind, and in particular with the end goal of being an isometric operator. Unfortunately, the resulting definitions do not provide good intuitions on a vertex-domain interpretation. In this paper, we show that this operator does have a vertex-domain interpretation as a diffusion operator using a polynomial approximation. We show that its impulse response exhibit an exponential decay of the energy way from the impulse, demonstrating localization preservation. Additionally, we formalize several techniques that can be used to study other graph signal operators.
Spectroscopic signatures of molecular orbitals on a honeycomb lattice

description: A tendency to form benzene-like molecular orbitals has been recently shown to be a common feature of the $4d$ and $5d$ transition metal oxides with a honeycomb lattice. This tendency competes with other interactions such as the spin-orbit coupling and Hubbard correlations, and can be partially or completely suppressed. In the calculations, SrRu$_{2}$O$_{6}$ presents the cleanest, so far, case of well-formed molecular orbitals, however, direct experimental evidence for or against this proposition has been missing. In this paper, we show that combined photoemission and optical studies can be used to identify molecular orbitals in SrRu$_{2}$O$_{6}$. Symmetry-driven election selection rules suppress optical transitions between certain molecular orbitals, while photoemission and inverse photoemission measurements are insensitive to them. Comparing the photoemission and optical conductivity spectra one should be able to observe clear signatures of molecular orbitals.

$\bar{D}Σ^*_c$ and $\bar{D}^*Σ_c$ interactions and LHCb pentaquarks

description: Recently, LHCb collaboration reported the observation of two hidden-charmed resonances $P_c(4380)$ and $P_c(4450)$ consistent with hidden-charmed pentaquarks. We perform a dynamical investigation about the $\bar{D}Σ_c^*(2520)$ and $\bar{D}^*Σ_c(2455)$ interactions which are described by the meson exchanges in a quasipotential Bethe-Salpeter equation approach. Two poles around $4450$ and $4390$ MeV are produced from the $\bar{D}^*Σ_c(2455)$ interaction with spin parities $3/2^-$ and $5/2^+$, respectively. The peak for $5/2^+$ state has a comparable hight as that of $3/2^-$ state in the $J/ψp$ invariant mass spectrum. Another bound state with spin-parity $J^P=3/2^-$ is produced from the $\bar{D}Σ^*_c(2520)$ interaction. Such results suggest that the narrower LHCb pentaquark $P_c(4450)$ can be well interpreted as a $5/2^+$ $\bar{D}^*Σ_c(2455)$ molecular state while the $P_c(4380)$ is a $3/2^-$ $\bar{D}^*Σ_c(2455)$ molecular state mixed with other secondary origins.

description: This study examined the use of aesthetics in select print advertisements. The rationale behind the study was to find out the extent to which the select print used aesthetics, to identify the aesthetics elements in the select print and to know the relevance of aesthetics in the select print. The study is a content analysis of four (4) purposively select advertisements from four (4) national dailies. It adopts the descriptive analytical approach in the analysis. The study found that the select print, except one, made use of aesthetic elements to a great extent in the advertisement and the adverts contain some aesthetic elements such as typeface and size, photographs and illustrations, white space, contrast and colour. These elements are very significant in print advertising because they enhance products beauty, taste and engender aesthetic experiences, thus can persuade potential customers to patronize advertised goods and services. The paper concludes that the relevance of aesthetics in print adverts is indisputable. The paper recommends that advertisers and designers of adverts should be creative in the use of aesthetic elements especially in their message design and presentations.

description: A thermal gradient as the driving force for spin currents plays a key role in spin caloritronics. In this field the spin Seebeck effect (SSE) is of major interest and was investigated in terms of in-plane thermal gradients inducing perpendicular spin currents (transverse SSE) and out-of-plane thermal gradients generating parallel spin currents (longitudinal SSE). Up to now all spincaloric experiments employ a spatially fixed thermal gradient. Thus anisotropic measurements with respect to well defined crystallographic directions were not possible. Here we introduce a new experiment that allows not only the in-plane rotation of the external magnetic field, but also the rotation of an in-plane thermal gradient controlled by optical temperature detection. As a consequence, the anisotropic magnetothermopower and the planar Nernst effect in a permalloy thin film can be measured simultaneously and reveal a phase shift, that allows the quantitative separation of the thermopower, the anisotropic magnetothermopower and the planar Nernst effect.

description: We generalize the Rigid-Field Hydrodynamic equations to accommodate arbitrary magnetic field topologies, resulting in a new Arbitrary Rigid-Field hydrodynamic (ARFHD) formalism. We undertake a critical point calculation of the steady-state ARFHD equations with a CAK-type radiative acceleration and determine the effects of a dipole magnetic field on the usual CAK mass-loss rate and velocity structure. Enforcing the proper optically-thin limit for the radiative line-acceleration is found to decrease both the mass-loss and wind acceleration, while rotation boosts both properties. We define optically-thin-correction and rotation parameters to quantify these effects on the global mass-loss rate and develop scaling laws for the surface mass-flux as a function of surface colatitude. These scaling laws are found to agree with previous laws derived from magnetohydrodynamic simulations of magnetospheres. The dipole magnetosphere velocity structure is found to differ from a global beta-velocity law, which contradicts a central assumption of the previously-developed XADM model of X-ray emission from magnetospheres.

description: The recent advent of spatially resolved mm- and cm-wavelength polarimetry in protostellar accretion discs could help clarify the role of magnetic fields in the angular momentum transport in these systems. The best case to date is that of HL~Tau, where the inability to produce a good fit to the 1.25-mm data with a combination of vertical and azimuthal magnetic field components was interpreted as implying that centrifugally driven winds (CDWs) are probably not a significant transport mechanism on the $\sim 10^2\,$au scale probed by the observations. Using synthetic polarization maps of heuristic single-field-component discs and of a post-processed simulation of a wind-driving disc, we demonstrate that a much better fit to the data can be obtained if the radial field component, a hallmark of the CDW mechanism, dominates in the polarized emission region. A similar inference was previously made in modelling the far-infrared polarization map of the pc-scale dust ring in the Galactic centre. To reconcile this interpretation with theoretical models of protostellar discs, which indicate that the wind is launched from a comparatively high elevation above the mid-plane, we propose that most of the polarized emission originates -- with a high ($\ga 10$\%) intrinsic degree of polarization -- in small ($\la 0.1\,$mm) grains that remain suspended above the mid-plane, and that the bulk of the mm-wavelength emission is produced -- with low intrinsic polarization -- by larger grains that have settled to the mid-plane.

description: Objective: The goal of this scoping review is to identify existing knowledge and knowledge gaps on the roles, responsibilities, conditions of work, scope-of-practice, and interprofessional team participation of professional social workers and social service workers in Canadian long-term care homes. Social workers and social service workers have always worked in the long-term care home sector as allied health professionals, yet in these health care settings in Canada, their contributions and skill sets are not well known or recognized. Methods: We followed the PRISMA guidelines for scoping reviews (PRISMA-ScR) to develop a protocol that identifies the literature on social workers and social services workers’ work in long-term care homes in Canada. In consultation with a research librarian at Carleton University, we will search for literature in PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus, PsycINFO, Social Work Abstracts, Sociological Abstracts and Google Scholar databases, and conduct a focused grey literature search. Discussion: As professions, occupations, and disciplines, social work and social services work are not recognized as offering clear skill sets and scopes-of-practice for long-term care home practice. This scoping review will identify knowledge and knowledge gaps and inform the next generation of practice guidelines for social workers and social service workers in long-term care home practice.

description: Infrared photometry in the J (1.2 microns), H (1.7 microns), Ks (2.2 microns) bands from the 2MASS catalogue and in the W1 (3.4 microns), W2 (4.6 microns), W3 (12 microns), W4 (22 microns) bands from the WISE catalogue is used to reveal the spatial variations of the interstellar extinction law in the infrared near the midplane of the Galaxy by the method of extrapolation of the extinction law applied to clump giants. The variations of the coefficients E(H-W1)/E(H-Ks), E(H-W2)/E(H-Ks), E(H-W3)/E(H-Ks), and E(H-W4)/E(H-Ks) along the line of sight in 2 deg per 2 deg squares of the sky centered at b=0 and l=20, 30, ..., 330, 340 deg as well as in several 4 deg per 4 deg squares with |b|=10 are considered. The results obtained here agree with those obtained by Zasowski et al. in 2009 using 2MASS and Spitzer-IRAC photometry for the same longitudes and similar photometric bands, confirming their main result: in the inner (relative to the Sun) Galactic disk, the fraction of fine dust increases with Galactocentric distance (or the mean dust grain size decreases). However, in the outer Galactic disk that was not considered by Zasowski et al., this trend is reversed: at the disk edge, the fraction of coarse dust is larger than that in the solar neighborhood. This general Galactic trend seems to be explained by the influence of the spiral pattern: its processes sort the dust by size and fragment it so that coarse and fine dust tend to accumulate, respectively, at the outer and inner (relative to the Galactic center) edges of the spiral arms. As a result, fine dust may exist only in the part of the Galactic disk far from both the Galactic center and the edge, while coarse dust dominates at the Galactic center, at the disk edge, and outside the disk.

description: Jets are dynamic, impulsive, well-collimated plasma events that develop at many different scales and in different layers of the solar atmosphere. Jets are believed to be induced by magnetic reconnection, a process central to many astrophysical phenomena. Within the solar atmosphere, jet-like events develop in many different environments, e.g., in the vicinity of active regions as well as in coronal holes, and at various scales, from small photospheric spicules to large coronal jets. In all these events, signatures of helical structure and/or twisting/rotating motions are regularly observed. The present study aims to establish that a single model can generally reproduce the observed properties of these jet-like events. In this study, using our state-of-the-art numerical solver ARMS, we present a parametric study of a numerical tridimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model of solar jet-like events. Within the MHD paradigm, we study the impact of varying the atmospheric plasma $β$ on the generation and properties of solar-like jets. The parametric study validates our model of jets for plasma $β$ ranging from $10^{-3}$ to $1$, typical of the different layers and magnetic environments of the solar atmosphere. Our model of jets can robustly explain the generation of helical solar jet-like events at various $β\le 1$. This study introduces the new result that the plasma $β$ modifies the morphology of the helical jet, explaining the different observed shapes of jets at different scales and in different layers of the solar atmosphere. Our results allow us to understand the energisation, triggering, and driving processes of jet-like events. Our model allows us to make predictions of the impulsiveness and energetics of jets as determined by the surrounding environment, as well as the morphological properties of the resulting jets.

description: Existing beam contact formulations can be categorized in point contact models that consider a discrete contact force at the closest point of the beams, and line contact models that assume distributed contact forces. In this work, it will be shown that line contact formulations provide accurate and robust mechanical models in the range of small contact angles, whereas the computational efficiency considerably decreases with increasing contact angles. On the other hand, point contact formulations serve as sufficiently accurate and very efficient models in the regime of large contact angles, while they are not applicable for small contact angles as a consequence of non-unique closest point projections. In order to combine the advantages of these basic formulations, a novel all-angle beam contact (ABC) formulation is developed that applies a point contact formulation for large contact angles and a recently developed line contact formulation for small contact angles, the two being smoothly connected by means of a variationally consistent model transition. Based on a stringent analysis, two different transition laws are investigated, optimal algorithmic parameters are suggested and conservation of energy and momentum is shown. All configuration-dependent quantities are consistently linearized, thus allowing for their application within implicit time integration schemes. Furthermore, a step size control of the nonlinear solution scheme that allows for large displacement increments per time step and an efficient two-stage contact search based on dynamically adapted search segments are proposed. A series of numerical test cases is analyzed in order to verify the accuracy and consistency of the proposed contact model transition regarding contact force distributions and conservation properties, but also for quantifying the efficiency gains as compared to standard beam contact formulations.

description: This first-person essay attempts to promote the usefulness and necessity of vulnerability for social work. In it, I share personal stories for the sake of what Mary Ellen Kondrat calls reflective awareness; working in and through these stories to better understand myself, the importance of self-narration, and the ways in which vulnerability is requisite for social work. This essay thus aims to implore others to think of their own narratives, critically evaluate them, and share them in ways that may seem uncomfortable, because collective vulnerability is the only way to bring about collective societal growth.

description: Examine the role of Ownership Interaction on the effect of Merger & Acquisition on the company's sustainable performance. In addition, it also investigates the effect of the interaction between Merger & Acquisition and ownership integration on the company's sustainable performance. This study uses a moderated mediation model to explore the role of Merger & Acquisition on the company's sustainable performance mediated by integration ownership. Merger & Acquisition acts as an independent and moderator variable between the effect of ownership integration on the company's sustainable performance. Data was collected from 51 companies in Indonesia that carried out Merger & Acquisition corporate actions for seven years from 2015-2021. We find that the direct effect of Merger & Acquisition on integration ownership is a U-curve. Integration ownership acts as a partial mediator on the relationship between the effect of Merger & Acquisition on the company's sustainable performance. We find evidence that Merger & Acquisition plays a moderate role by amplifying the effect of ownership integration on the company's sustainable performance. This paper contributes to enriching the literature on good corporate governance oversight mechanisms related to management entrenchment. We find that the integration of ownership of a company directly participates in the Merger & Acquisition corporate action relationship which has an impact on the company's sustainable performance. The role of ownership integration on the company's sustainable performance is in line with the concept of agency theory alignment in the specific context of companies in Indonesia. We apply a moderated mediation model because we suspect that there is an interaction between Merger & Acquisition and ownership integration in different pathways from mediator to observable dependent variable.

description: We report on a scanning confocal Raman spectroscopy study investigating the strain-uniformity and the overall strain and doping of high-quality chemical vapour deposited (CVD) graphene-based heterostuctures on a large number of different substrate materials, including hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), transition metal dichalcogenides, silicon, different oxides and nitrides, as well as polymers. By applying a hBN-assisted, contamination free, dry transfer process for CVD graphene, high-quality heterostructures with low doping densities and low strain variations are assembled. The Raman spectra of these pristine heterostructures are sensitive to substrate-induced doping and strain variations and are thus used to probe the suitability of the substrate material for potential high-quality graphene devices. We find that the flatness of the substrate material is a key figure for gaining, or preserving high-quality graphene.

description: This paper presents the implementation of a perceptual system for a mobile robot. The system is designed and installed with modern sensors and multi-point communication channels. The goal is to equip the robot with a high level of perception to support a wide range of navigating applications including Internet-based telecontrol, semi-autonomy, and autonomy. Due to uncertainties of acquiring data, a sensor fusion model is developed, in which heterogeneous measured data including odometry, compass heading and laser range is combined to get an optimal estimate in a statistical sense. The combination is carried out by an extended Kalman filter. Experimental results indicate that based on the system, the robot localization is enhanced and sufficient for navigation tasks.

description: Most theoretical studies of tunneling in Dirac and the closely related Weyl semimetals have modeled these materials as single Weyl nodes described by the three-dimensional Dirac equation $H = v_f \vec{p}\cdot\vecσ$. The influence of scattering between the different valleys centered around different Weyl nodes, and the Fermi arc states which connect these nodes are hence not evident from these studies. In this work we study the tunneling in a thin film system of the Dirac semimetal $\text{Na}_3\text{Bi}$ consisting of a central segment with a gate potential, sandwiched between identical semi-infinite source and drain segments. The model Hamiltonian we use for $\text{Na}_3\text{Bi}$ gives, for each spin, two Weyl nodes separated in $k$-space symmetrically about $k_z=0$. The presence of a top and bottom surface in the thin film geometry results in the appearance of Fermi arc states and energy subbands. We show that (for each spin) the presence of two Weyl nodes and the Fermi arc states result in enhanced transmission oscillations, and finite transmission even when the energy falls within the \textit{bulk} band gap in the central segment respectively. These features are not evident in single Weyl node models.

description: A Cr atom in a semiconductor host carries a localized spin with an intrinsic large spin to strain coupling particularly promising for the development of hybrid spin-mechanical systems and coherent mechanical spin driving. We demonstrate here that the spin of an individual Cr atom inserted in a semiconductor quantum dot can be controlled optically. We first show that a Cr spin can be prepared by resonant optical pumping. Monitoring the time dependence of the intensity of the resonant fluorescence of the quantum dot during this process permits to probe the dynamics of the optical initialization of the Cr spin. Using this initialization and read-out technique we measured a Cr spin relaxation time at T=5 K of about 2 microseconds. We finally demonstrate that, under a resonant single mode laser field, the energy of any spin state of an individual Cr atom can be independently tuned by using the optical Stark effect.

SO(8) Fermion Dynamical Symmetry and Strongly-Correlated Quantum Hall States in Monolayer Graphene

description: A formalism is presented for treating strongly-correlated graphene quantum Hall states in terms of an SO(8) fermion dynamical symmetry that includes pairing as well as particle--hole generators. The graphene SO(8) algebra is isomorphic to an SO(8) algebra that has found broad application in nuclear physics, albeit with physically very different generators, and exhibits a strong formal similarity to SU(4) symmetries that have been proposed to describe high-temperature superconductors. The well-known SU(4) symmetry of quantum Hall ferromagnetism for single-layer graphene is recovered as one subgroup of SO(8), but the dynamical symmetry structure associated with the full set of SO(8) subgroup chains extends quantum Hall ferromagnetism and allows analytical many-body solutions for a rich set of collective states exhibiting spontaneously-broken symmetry that may be important for the low-energy physics of graphene in strong magnetic fields. The SO(8) symmetry permits a natural definition of generalized coherent states that correspond to symmetry-constrained Hartree--Fock--Bogoliubov solutions, or equivalently a microscopically-derived Ginzburg--Landau formalism, exhibiting the interplay between competing spontaneously broken symmetries in determining the ground state.
