| Abstract | We construct a Ginsburg Landau (GL) theory to study the phases of liquid, solid, superfluid, especially a possible supersolid and phase transitions among these phases in a unified framework. In this GL, we put the two competing orders between the solid component and the superfluid component on the same footing. We only introduce two parameters: v which is the repulsive interaction between the normal component and the local superfluid mode and g which is a periodically changing chemical potential for the local superfluid mode. The microscopic origins of v and g are given. By using this GL action, we study the superfluid to supersolid transition, normal solid to the supersolid transition and analyze the conditions for the existence of the supersolid. The non-classical rotational inertial (NCRI) in the SS state is calculated and found to be isotropic in bcc and fcc lattice, but weakly anisotropic in hcp lattice. We study the elementary low energy excitation inside a supersolid. We find that there are one upper branch and one lower branch longitudinal “supersolidon” modes inside the SS, while the transverse modes in the SS stay the same as those inside the NS. We also determine the corresponding spectral weights of the two branches. We work out the experimental signatures of these elementary excitations in Debye-Waller factor, density-density correlation, vortex loop interaction and specific heat. The estimated excess entropy due to vacancies seems consistent with data measured in the specific experiment in Helium 4. Detecting the two supersolidon modes by various equilibrium and thermodynamic experiments such as X-ray scattering, neutron scattering, acoustic wave attenuation and heat capacity can prove or disapprove the existence of a supersolid in Helium 4. A toy model of supersolid wavefunction is analyzed. The difference and similarities with lattice supersolid are clearly demonstrated. Elementary excitations inside a Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) state of superfluid are also discussed. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
