  Tomáš Brauner, Naoki Yamamoto, Ryo Yokokura

  SciPost Physics 16 （ 2 ） 051:1 - 051:32 2024.02

  Research paper (scientific journal), Joint Work, Accepted

  　View Summary

  We demonstrate the general existence of a local dipole conservation law in bosonic field theory. The scalar charge density arises from the symplectic form of the system, whereas the tensor current descends from its stress tensor. The algebra of spatial translations becomes centrally extended in presence of field configurations with a finite nonzero charge. Furthermore, when the symplectic form is closed but not exact, the system may, surprisingly, lack a well-defined momentum density. This leads to a theorem for the presence of additional light modes in the system whenever the short-distance physics is governed by a translationally invariant local field theory. We also illustrate this mechanism for axion electrodynamics as an example of a system with Nambu–Goldstone modes of higher-form symmetries.

• Chiral asteroseismology: seismic oscillations caused by chiral transport in neutron stars and supernovae

  Sota Hanai, Naoki Yamamoto

  Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics 10 （ 018 ） 1 - 25 2023.10

  Research paper (scientific journal), Joint Work, Accepted

  　View Summary

  We study the novel asteroseismology of the chiral magnetic wave (CMW) of the quark number density in relativistic quark matter inside neutron stars and core-collapse supernovae and the chiral vortical wave (CVW) of the neutrino number density in relativistic neutrino matter at the core of supernovae. We call the oscillation modes for these chiral waves the chiral magnetic mode (CM-mode) and chiral vortical mode (CV-mode), respectively. We derive the dispersion relations of these new modes in the presence of the chirality flipping due to the finite quark mass and diffusion. We then estimate the possible frequencies of these modes and amplitudes of the resulting gravitational waves. In particular, since the CM-mode can exist only in quark matter with nearly gapless quarks (such as the two-flavor color superconductivity) for a sufficiently strong magnetic field, corresponding gravitational waves provide a new possible probe for such quark matter and the magnetic field in neutron stars.

• Generalized chiral instabilities, linking numbers, and non-invertible symmetries

  Naoki Yamamoto, Ryo Yokokura

  Journal of High Energy Physics 07 （ 45 ） 1 - 29 2023.07

  Research paper (scientific journal), Joint Work, Accepted

  　View Summary

  We demonstrate a universal mechanism of a class of instabilities in infrared regions for massless Abelian p-form gauge theories with topological interactions, which we call generalized chiral instabilities. Such instabilities occur in the presence of initial electric fields for the p-form gauge fields. We show that the dynamically generated magnetic fields tend to decrease the initial electric fields and result in configurations with linking numbers, which can be characterized by non-invertible global symmetries. The so-called chiral plasma instability and instabilities of the axion electrodynamics and (4+1)-dimensional Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory in electric fields can be described by the generalized chiral instabilities in a unified manner. We also illustrate this mechanism in the (2+1)-dimensional Goldstone-Maxwell model in electric field.
