Quantum time crystals are systems characterised by spontaneously emerging periodic order in the time domain. A range of such phases has been reported. The concept has even been discussed in popular literature, and deservedly so: while the first speculation on a phase of broken time translation symmetry did not use the name time crystal, it was later adopted from 1980s popular culture. For the physics community, however, the ultimate qualification of a new concept is its ability to provide predictions and insight. Confirming that time crystals manifest the basic dynamics of quantum mechanics is a necessary step in that direction. We study two adjacent quantum time crystals experimentally. The time crystals, realised by two magnon condensates in superfluid $^3$He-B, exchange magnons leading to opposite-phase oscillations in their populations -- AC Josephson effect -- while the defining periodic motion remains phase coherent throughout the experiment.

The microscopic theory of Josephson effect in point contacts between two-band superconductors is developed. The general expression for the Josephson current, which is valid for arbitrary temperatures, is obtained. We considered the dirty superconduct ors with interband scattering, which produces the coupling of the Josephson currents between different bands. The influence of phase shifts and interband scattering rates in the banks is analyzed near critical temperature Tc. It is shown that for some values of parameters the critical current can be negative, which means the pi-junction behavior.
We study the response of high-critical current proximity Josephson junctions to a microwave excitation. Electron over-heating in such devices is known to create hysteretic dc voltage-current characteristics. Here we demonstrate that it also strongly influences the ac response. The interplay of electron over-heating and ac Josephson dynamics is revealed by the evolution of the Shapiro steps with the microwave drive amplitude. Extending the resistively shunted Josephson junction model by including a thermal balance for the electronic bath coupled to phonons, a strong electron over-heating is obtained.

We investigate the non-Abelian Josephson effect in spinor Bose-Einstein condensates with double optical traps. We propose, for the first time, a real physical system which contains non-Abelian Josephson effects. The collective modes of this weak coup ling system have very different density and spin tunneling characters comparing to the Abelian case. We calculate the frequencies of the pseudo Goldstone modes in different phases between two traps respectively, which are a crucial feature of the non-Abelian Josephson effects. We also give an experimental protocol to observe this novel effect in future experiments.
Superconducting electronic devices have re-emerged as contenders for both classical and quantum computing due to their fast operation speeds, low dissipation and long coherence times. An ultimate demonstration of coherence is lasing. We use one of th e fundamental aspects of superconductivity, the ac Josephson effect, to demonstrate a laser made from a Josephson junction strongly coupled to a multi-mode superconducting cavity. A dc voltage bias to the junction provides a source of microwave photons, while the circuits nonlinearity allows for efficient down-conversion of higher order Josephson frequencies down to the cavitys fundamental mode. The simple fabrication and operation allows for easy integration with a range of quantum devices, allowing for efficient on-chip generation of coherent microwave photons at low temperatures.
We developed microscopic theory of Josephson effect in point contacts between dirty two-band superconductors. The general expression for the Josephson current, which is valid for arbitrary temperatures, is obtained. This expression was used for calcu lation of current-phase relations and temperature dependences of critical current with application to MgB2 superconductor. Also we have considered influence on contact characteristics interband scattering effect appeared in case of dirty superconductors. It is shown that the correction to Josephson current due to the interband scattering depends on phase shift in the banks (i.e. s- or s+/- -wave symmetry of order parameters)
