Gyrotropic Fingerprints of Magnetic Topological Insulator-Unconventional Magnet Interfaces

This paper establishes Zeeman quantum geometry as a powerful framework for identifying unconventional magnetic orders in insulating heterostructures by demonstrating that the transverse displacement component of the intrinsic gyrotropic magnetic response serves as a high-fidelity symmetry fingerprint, characterized by distinct angular harmonics and sign-reversal patterns that are largely absent in the conduction component.

Symmetry-enforced third-order nonlinear thermal Hall effects in altermagnets

This paper proposes a symmetry-enforced third-order nonlinear thermal Hall effect driven by Berry curvature in altermagnets, demonstrating that materials with out-of-plane Néel order (such as KV2Se2O and MnF2) exhibit a dominant third-order response with π\pi-periodic dependence, providing a novel diagnostic tool for identifying altermagnetism and determining Néel vector orientation.

Vortex-core Majorana coupling to a chiral edge in a px+ipyp_x+ip_y superconductor: Nonmonotonic spectral reorganization and coherent fermion-parity dynamics

This study demonstrates that while a vortex-core Majorana wave packet maintains a high retained norm when projected onto the low-energy subspace of a finite px+ipyp_x+ip_y superconducting disk, its coupling to a chiral edge induces nonmonotonic spectral reorganization that leads to diverse dynamical behaviors—including rapid dephasing and sign-changing oscillations—thereby showing that a large retained norm does not guarantee spectral concentration or persistent fermion-parity memory.

Heat transfer problem of a dense gas described by the Enskog equation with a modification of the Enskog factor

This paper investigates heat transfer in a dense gas between parallel plates using the Enskog equation with a modified Enskog factor that satisfies the H-theorem, finding that while the modification has a limited impact on density, temperature, and heat flow, it produces noticeable differences in the stress tensor under severe parameter conditions.

Direct observation of flat bands in near-magic-angle twisted bilayer CVD graphene

This study demonstrates that high-quality twisted bilayer graphene grown via chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and assembled using a grow-and-stack protocol exhibits flat electronic bands comparable to those in exfoliated samples, confirming the viability of CVD for realizing magic-angle correlated states.

Direct Observation of the Zigzag Edge States of a Supramolecular Diatomic Kagome Lattice

Researchers successfully fabricated a supramolecular diatomic Kagome lattice using a triptycene derivative on a Pb(111) surface and provided direct experimental evidence, supported by calculations, of its topological zigzag edge states governed by Zak phase quantization.
