This special issue of Annals of Physics features original research papers (invited and
contributed) as well as invited review articles presented at the conference “Localisation …

In the previous chapter, we traced the history of dilute magnetic impurities in metals and
quantum dots. The SIAM and Kondo models were presented, originally introduced to …

When magnetic moments are immersed into the Fermi sea of itinerant electrons, rich
quantum physics emerges. This is relevant for a wide range of materials including heavy …

A review is given on the theory of metal–insulator transitions (MIT) in doped semiconductors.
We focus in particular on reviewing theories of their anomalous magnetic properties, which …

The development of novel states of matter is a significant aspect of modern physics
research, with quantum phase transitions playing a crucial role. The complex interplay …

This book presents a complete study of natural orbitals in quantum impurity problems,
revealing a certain simplicity in these interacting many-body problems. These systems …

Strong correlations arising from interactions between particles are responsible for many
phenomena in condensed matter physics, from superconductivity to heavy fermions. An …

Neste trabalho, investigou-se os efeitos do campo elétrico cristalino nos compostos
isoestruturais de ErM4Al8 (M= Cu e Fe). As amostras foram produzidas por fusao fornoa …
