Coupling of Higgs and Leggett modes in non-equilibrium superconductors

Collective modes of amplitude and phase are decoupled in equilibrium systems, limiting the understanding of competing orders in correlated material. Here, Krull et al. report that a non-adiabatic pump pulse can induce an intricate coupling between Leggett and Higgs modes, providing a way to couple c...
