Effective field theory of force-free electrodynamics (2019)
Journal Article
Gralla, S. E., & Iqbal, N. (2019). Effective field theory of force-free electrodynamics. Physical Review D, 99(10), Article 105004. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.99.105004

Force-free electrodynamics (FFE) is a closed set of equations for the electromagnetic field of a magnetically dominated plasma. There are strong arguments for the existence of force-free plasmas near pulsars and active black holes, but FFE alone cann... Read More about Effective field theory of force-free electrodynamics.

Goldstone modes and photonization for higher form symmetries (2019)
Journal Article
Hofman, D., & Iqbal, N. (2019). Goldstone modes and photonization for higher form symmetries. SciPost Physics, 6(1), Article 006. https://doi.org/10.21468/scipostphys.6.1.006

We discuss generalized global symmetries and their breaking. We extend Goldstone’s theorem to higher form symmetries by showing that a perimeter law for an extended p-dimensional defect operator charged under a continuous p-form generalized global sy...
