Spectroscopic measurements show how the features of the band structure related to the kagome lattice in CsV3Sb5 contribute to the observed strongly correlated phases.
The physics of large systems is often understood as the outcome of the local operations among its components. Now, it is shown that this picture may be incomplete in quantum systems whose interactions are constrained by symmetries.
The atmospheres of most planets in our Solar System have a single large cyclonic vortex at each of their poles. Jupiter with its polygonal cyclones surrounding a single one, however, falls out of line, owing to an energy transfer to larger scales.
The beating of motile cilia arises from the collective action of hundreds of proteins. A study of the dynamics of cilia under different environmental and genetic conditions shows that the space of beating variations is low-dimensional.
Infrared images of Jupiter taken by the Juno spacecraft reveal an energy transfer driven by moist convection. This mechanism is expected to enhance heat transfer, which might also be relevant to Earth’s atmosphere.
In stellarators, turbulence is detrimental for the confinement of the plasma. In the Large Helical Device, a confinement regime with reduced turbulence and improved confinement is observed.
In systems with no symmetry, local operations can combine to make any unitary transformation across a whole quantum system, but if symmetries limit the allowed operations, they cannot all be generated using local transformations.
The LHCb collaboration reports an improved measurement of the oscillation frequency of mesons consisting of a bottom quark and strange quark, which is then combined with previous results.
