Abstract: The electronic band structure of rhombohedral graphene multilayers hosts van Hove singularities at which the single particle of states diverges.  I will discuss experiments in which we use electrostatic gates to tune the chemical potential through these singularities, revealing a cascade of correlated electron phases; notably, both singlet and triplet superconductors are observed proximal to or within generalized ferromagnetic phases where the system spontaneously polarizes into one or more of the spin- and valley isospin flavors.
