Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Novel physical phenomena induced by spontaneous symmetry breaking in multi-component superfluids of binary Bose-Einstein condensates and superfluid 3He are studied theoretically. The research goal is to reveal theoretically the experiment of simulating `brane' annihilation done by Lancaster University. In the process of establishing the theory, a new physical concept, Projected Symmetry Breaking, is proposed. Additionally, in domain-coarsening dynamics with spontaneous breaking of a discrete symmetry, like phase separation of oil and water, the direct evidence of a relation to percolation theory is produced. In the case of phase separation of binary condensates, two length-scale regimes can co-exist; a regime is described by percolation theory and the other is done by quantum theory.
