This site has compiled the topology of fermi surfaces for a lot of material.

http://www.phys.ufl.edu/fermisurface/

The Science website and the contact e-mail at the end indicate that the people who are responsible for this are at Ohio State (Gokul, do you know any of them?), but it is obvious from the site url that it is at U. of Florida. Rather confusing.

Nice compilation!

Alex Choy, who got his PhD from U. Fl, is a recently joined Postdoc under John Wilkins, here. Wilkins, who is on my Grad Committee, is (or was) Chair of APS DCMP. I think all the work on that site was done in Gainesville.
 
Ah, that explaiins it then. That's why the site is still at ufl. I hope he gets to update that ufl site even when he's no longer there. This database can be such a useful tool for many people in this area of physics.

It seems not too bad. Very beautiful pictures. :-)
 
they look like they were made with opendx (Data Explorer)?

very nice..i wish i could print the full color poster :)
 
You are from the Mars! thanks
 
From the BCS theory of superconductivity is well known that the superfluid density smoothly decreases with increasing temperature. Annihilated superfluid carriers become normal and lose their momenta on lattice atoms. So if we induce a persistent supercurrent in a ring below Tc and after that slowly increase the temperature, we must observe a decrease in the actual supercurrent, because the density of electron pairs and total supercurrent momentum decrease. However, this supercurrent...
Hi. I have got question as in title. How can idea of instantaneous dipole moment for atoms like, for example hydrogen be consistent with idea of orbitals? At my level of knowledge London dispersion forces are derived taking into account Bohr model of atom. But we know today that this model is not correct. If it would be correct I understand that at each time electron is at some point at radius at some angle and there is dipole moment at this time from nucleus to electron at orbit. But how...
