I think it is fairto invite at this Festa chearful guest:the Cooper pair
They wear a crown:spin up or spin down
They stay togetheronly in cold weather
and can even shield
a magnetic field
The Coopers dream
to master the stream
to surf-ride and flee
from the Fermi sea.
but can anyone save
them from a d-wave?
The Coopers hate
the polaron state.
There’s much more fun
in a bipolaron!
Fermions want their shares
within boson pairs
The game gets quite funny
(reminds Don Giovanni),
but yields something novel:
a Boson-Fermion model.
localized bi-polarons and delocalized fermions (Annette Bußmann-Holder & Roman Micnas)
In such furious dance
no one knows at once
who’s single out of three:
it’s supersymmetry!
Who’s the good man
causing such nesting?
Some are suggesting
the apex-oxygen
Heinz Bilz proposed
that such ability
comes from nonlinear
polarizability.
“Do ruthenates
have triplet pairs?”
Georg meditates
with a cup of Marsala.
This is the worst
of all nightmares,
a real kabbàla!”
The Coopers need
increase their speed.
That’s why they like
to ride a good bike
Karl-Alex, the master,
wants them even faster;
but, rather than striving
in an awful rodeo,
he wants them to drive
an Alfa Romeo!
they like a large Alfa!
FIAT
ALFA Montreal 4.9
Should we believe
in this awful threat?
Science confirms:
it’s a real effect!
“Superconductors
-Paul is informing –
-will solve the problem
of global warming”
and thank you very much Annette, Hugo and Davor!
Happy birthday, Alex and Georg!
Great science keeps you twenteenager
