Impact of Drops and beads under large biaxial deformation: the role of viscosity,capillarity and elasticity Christian Ligoure, Université de Montpellier   We investigate freely expanding sheets formed by ultrasoft gel beads, and viscoelastic drops, produced by the impact of the bead or drop on a plate covered with a thin layer of liquid nitrogen that…

Field-induced transition from even to odd parity superconductivity in CeRh2As2 Prof. Elena Hassinger, Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids Abstract: I will report on the discovery of unconventional superconductivity in CeRh2As2. Although it appears at temperatures below 1 K, the superconducting state is extremely robust under the application of magnetic fields and presents a…
