Absence of Orbital Hall Magnetoresistance in Nonmagnet/Ferromagnet Bilayers with Large Orbital Torque

This study reports the absence of orbital Hall magnetoresistance in nonmagnet/ferromagnet bilayers despite the presence of giant orbital torques, revealing that orbital currents undergo isotropic bulk absorption rather than the anisotropic interfacial reflection required for magnetoresistance, while also cautioning against misleading signals from Ni-based systems.

Extended dynamical density functional theory for nonisothermal binary systems including momentum density

This paper derives a new extended dynamical density functional theory (EDDFT) for nonisothermal binary systems by incorporating momentum and energy densities via the Mori-Zwanzig-Forster projection operator technique, thereby enabling the description of both diffusive and convective dynamics while yielding exact functionals for hard spheres and correctly predicting the speed of sound.

Topological Surface Charge Detection via Active Capacitive Compensation: A Pathway to the 4D Quantum Hall Effect

This paper proposes and validates an active capacitive compensation scheme that utilizes tunable negative capacitance to cancel gate dielectric effects, thereby recovering over 95% of the suppressed topological magnetoelectric signal and enabling robust detection of the four-dimensional quantum Hall effect in axion-insulator devices.

Non-equilibrium bosonization of fractional quantum Hall edges

This paper develops a non-equilibrium bosonization framework based on the Keldysh action to analyze charge statistics, Green's functions, and tunneling transport in fractional quantum Hall edges, demonstrating how interaction-induced anyonic fractionalization and braiding phases manifest in measurable observables like the Fano factor for both single-mode and multi-mode systems.

Precise control of crystallography and magnetism in focused-ion-beam transformed iron-nickel thin films

This paper demonstrates that focused ion beam irradiation of metastable Fe78_{78}Ni22_{22} thin films induces a localized fcc-to-bcc phase transformation, enabling the precise patterning of ferromagnetic nanostructures with controllable crystallographic orientations and magnetic easy axes driven by residual lattice strain.

Observation of Superfluidity and Meissner Effect of Composite Bosons in GaAs Quantum Hall System

This paper provides direct experimental evidence for the superfluid nature of composite bosons in GaAs quantum Hall systems by demonstrating a bulk Meissner-like effect, where a controlled time-varying magnetic field induces quantized charge accumulation to maintain a fixed electron-to-flux ratio, with the screening mechanism transitioning between charge-mediated and fixed-density regimes depending on the presence of a top gate.

Equilibrium Thermochemistry and Crystallographic Morphology of Manganese Sulfide Nanocrystals

This study establishes a validated computational framework using r2^2SCAN+UU density functional theory to predict the equilibrium morphologies of rock salt, zinc blende, and wurtzite manganese sulfide nanocrystals as a function of sulfur chemical potential, a prediction that is experimentally confirmed by the synthesis of cubic rock salt nanocrystals and oxidative solution calorimetry measurements.

Majorana Flat Bands in the Vortex Line of Superconducting Weyl Semimetals

This paper theoretically demonstrates the emergence of Majorana flat bands in the vortex lines of superconducting time-reversal-symmetry-breaking Weyl semimetals by decomposing the system into kzk_z-resolved Chern insulators, identifying the conditions for their formation, proposing a kzk_z-resolved Z2Z_2 Chern-Simons invariant for their characterization, and confirming their realization via attractive Hubbard interactions.

Interacting topological magnons in the Kitaev-Heisenberg honeycomb ferromagnets with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction

This theoretical study investigates magnon-magnon interactions in a two-dimensional Heisenberg-Kitaev honeycomb ferromagnet with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, revealing that the critical temperature for temperature-induced topological phase transitions monotonically approaches the Curie temperature as DMI strength increases and is correlated with both DMI and magnetic field strength.
