How do collective interactions emerge Superconducting and ferroic systems at the nanoscale

This is a correction to the previous e mail The seminar is INSTEAD of the CM theory seminar and not in 11:30 Abstract: Understanding the competition between order and disorder in nature is a major task in physics Such competition conveniently exists in disordered systems that exhibit a phase transition which is accompanied by a sudden emergence of ordered collective interactions of the participating particles Hence realising the onset of b collectivenessb in such systems mainly in the solid state has become an important goal by itself In particular the nanoscale behaviour of superconductors and ferroics serves as an elegant platfor
