Abstract: This book summarizes the basic physics of graphite and newly discovered phenomena in this material. The book contains the knowledge needed to understand novel properties of functionalized graphite demonstrating the occurrence of remarkable phenomena in disordered graphite and graphite-based heterostructures. It also discusses applications of thin graphitic samples in future electronics. Graphite consists of a stack of nearly decoupled two-dimensional graphene planes. Because of the low dimensionality and the presence of Dirac fermions, much of graphite physics resembles that of graphene. On the other hand, the multi-layered nature of the graphite structure together with structural and/or chemical disorder are responsible for phenomena that are not observed yet in graphene, such as ferromagnetic order and superconductivity. Each chapter was written by one or more experts in the field whose contributions were relevant in the (re)discovery of (un)known phenomena in graphite. The book is intended as reference for beginners and experts in the field, introducing them to many aspects of the new physics of graphite, with a fresh overview of recently found phenomena and the theoretical frames to understand them

Mean-field theory for superconductivity in twisted bilayer graphene
TL;DR: In this paper, the mean-field $s$-wave superconducting state of a bilayer graphene twisted around a certain magic angle was investigated and shown to evolve as the twist angle is tuned, and as a function of the doping level.
Robust doubly charged nodal lines and nodal surfaces in centrosymmetric systems
TL;DR: In this article, the authors generalize the homotopy discussion to the centrosymmetric extensions of all Atland-Zirnbauer classes, and show that robust and multiply charged nodes appear in four of these centroid symmetric extensions, namely, $\mathrm{AZ}+\mathcal{I}$ classes, which lead to doubly charged nodal lines.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider a specific case of ferromagnets consisting of the Van der Waals-bonded stacks of honeycomb layers, e.g. chromium trihalides CrX3 (X = F, Cl, Br and I), that display two spin wave modes with energy dispersion similar to that for the electrons in graphene.

Classification of flat bands according to the band-crossing singularity of Bloch wave functions
Jun-Won Rhim,Bohm-Jung Yang +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that flat bands can be categorized into two distinct classes, singular and nonsingular flat bands, by exploiting the singular behavior of their Bloch wave functions in momentum space.

TL;DR: The analysis indicates that the electron−electron interaction is not the sole driving force of these transitions and that lattice degrees of freedom play an important role, and the evolution of elastic constant anomalies with temperature and magnetic field allows for a detailed phase diagram.
