Explore the fascinating intersection where quantum materials meet the complexity of everyday environments in the Cond-Mat — Mes-Hall section. This field investigates how tiny particles behave when caught between the orderly world of single atoms and the chaotic nature of bulk matter, revealing the hidden rules that govern electricity, magnetism, and heat in novel substances.

Gist.Science brings these cutting-edge discoveries to you directly from arXiv, the leading repository for physics preprints. We process every new submission in this category as soon as it appears, offering both straightforward, plain-language explanations and deep technical summaries to help researchers and curious minds alike grasp the latest breakthroughs without getting lost in dense equations.

Below are the most recent papers in this dynamic area of condensed matter physics, ready for you to explore.

Anomalous thermoelectric Hall response of interacting 2D Dirac fermions

This paper demonstrates that the anomalous thermoelectric Hall response of interacting 2D massive Dirac fermions remains non-zero at zero temperature even after subtracting magnetization currents, a surprising result attributed to the inevitable manifestation of locality violation in the infrared physics of quantized field theories.
