Numerical investigation of the superfluid transition in low dimensions and in anisotropic systems
DownloadSpring 2023
The main theme of this thesis is the superfluid transition in reduced dimensions and in anisotropic and inhomogeneous systems. Using state-of-the-art computational methodology, we carry out large-scale, numerically exact computer simulations to study this topic, making use of classical and...

We study by computer simulations the low temperature properties of small parahydrogen clusters (free clusters) and the effect of confinement on the energetics and superfluid properties in two-dimensions (2D). Computed energetics for the free clusters are in quantitative agreement with that...

The search for new phases of matter and their quantitative characterization is one of the central goals of condensed matter physics. To that end, quantum Monte Carlo is a tremendously powerful toolbox that enables the simulation of assemblies of interacting bosons, allowing the exact calculation...

Confinement is known to suppress order in condensed matter. This is well exemplified in phase transitions such as freezing, as well as the superfluid transition in liquid helium, which occur at lower temperatures in confinement than in the bulk. We provide in this thesis a demonstration of a...
