Quantum Phase Transitions

Quantum Phase Transitions is a theoretical framework in condensed matter physics that describes continuous changes in the ground state of a quantum many-body system driven by quantum fluctuations at absolute zero temperature, distinguished from classical phase transitions by its dependence on non-thermal control parameters such as magnetic field or pressure.
