We investigate the performance of a one-dimensional dimerized 𝑋𝑌 chain as a spin quantum battery. Such integrable model shows a rich quantum phase diagram that emerges through a mapping of the spins onto auxiliary fermionic degrees of freedom. We consider a charging protocol relying on the double quench of an internal parameter, namely the strength of the dimerization, and address the energy stored in the systems. We observe three distinct regimes, depending on the timescale characterizing the duration of the charging: a short-time regime related to the dynamics of the single dimers, a long-time regime related to the recurrence time of the system at finite size, and a thermodynamic limit time regime. In the latter, the energy stored is almost unaffected by the charging time and the precise values of the charging parameters, provided the quench crosses a quantum phase transition. Finally, we analytically prove that the three-timescale behavior and the strong dependence of the energy stored on the quantum phase diagram also hold in the quantum Ising chain in a transverse field. Our results can play a relevant role in the design of stable solid-state quantum batteries.

Fractional killing in response to drugs is a hallmark of nongenetic cellular heterogeneity. Yet how individual lineages evade drug treatment, as observed in bacteria and cancer cells, is not quantitatively understood. We study a stochastic population model with age-dependent division and death rates, allowing for persistence. In periodic drug environments, we discover peaks in the survival probabilities at division or death times that are multiples of the environment duration. The survival resonances are unseen in unstructured populations and are amplified by persistence.

Understanding the behaviors of ecological systems is challenging given their multifaceted complexity. To proceed, theoretical models such as Lotka-Volterra dynamics with random interactions have been investigated by the dynamical mean-field theory to provide insights into underlying principles such as how biodiversity and stability depend on the randomness in interaction strength. Yet the fully connected structures assumed in these previous studies are not realistic, as revealed by a vast amount of empirical data. We derive a generic formula for the abundance distribution under an arbitrary distribution of degree, the number of interacting neighbors, which leads to degree-dependent abundance patterns of species. Notably, in contrast to the fully interacting systems, the number of surviving species can be reduced as the community becomes cooperative in heterogeneous interaction structures. Our study, therefore, demonstrates that properly taking into account heterogeneity in the interspecific interaction structure is indispensable to understanding the diversity in large ecosystems, and our general theoretical framework can apply to a much wider range of interacting many-body systems.

Information propagation in the one-dimensional infinite temperature Hubbard model with a dissipative particle sink at the end of a semi-infinite chain is studied. In the strongly interacting limit, the two-site mutual information and the operator entanglement entropy exhibit a rich structure with two propagating information fronts and superimposed interference fringes. A classical reversible cellular automaton model quantitatively captures the transport and the slow, classical part of the correlations but fails to describe the rapidly propagating information jet. The fast quantum jet resembles coherent free particle propagation, with the accompanying long-ranged interference fringes that are exponentially damped by short-ranged spin correlations in the many-body background.

Stacking nonpolar, monolayer materials has emerged as an effective strategy to harvest ferroelectricity in two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) materials. At a particular stacking sequence, interlayer charge transfer allows for the generation of out-of-plane dipole components, and the polarization magnitude and direction can be altered by an interlayer sliding. In this work, we use ab initio calculations and demonstrate that in prototype sliding ferroelectrics rhombohedrally-stacked bilayer transition metal dichalcogenides MoS2, the out-of-plane electric polarization can be robustly tuned by photoexcitation in a large range for a given sliding. Such tuning is associated with both a structural origin—i.e., photoinduced structural distortion—and a charge origin, namely, the distribution of photoexcited carriers. We elucidate different roles that photoexcitation plays in modulating sliding ferroelectricity under different light intensities, and we highlight the pivotal role of light in manipulating polarization of 2D vdW materials.
堆叠非极性单层材料已成为获取二维范德华（vdW）材料铁电性的有效策略。在特定的堆叠顺序下，层间电荷转移可产生平面外偶极子分量，极化幅度和方向可通过层间滑动来改变。在这项研究中，我们利用 ab initio 计算证明，在原型滑动铁电体斜方体堆叠双层过渡金属二掺杂物 MoS2 中，平面外电极化可以通过光激发在给定滑动的很大范围内进行稳健的调整。这种调谐既与结构有关，即光诱导的结构畸变，也与电荷有关，即光激发载流子的分布。我们阐明了光激发在不同光强度下调节滑动铁电性的不同作用，并强调了光在操纵二维 vdW 材料极化中的关键作用。

Single-detector 3D dynamic light scattering (3D DLS) emerges as a reliable technique to determine the drift velocity of out-of-equilibrium colloidal particles. In particular, our investigation reveals the appearance of oscillations of a well-defined frequency in the autocorrelation function of the scattered intensity when particles are immersed in a medium exposed to thermally induced convection. These oscillations arise as a consequence of the directed motion of particles due to the convection of the fluid. The experimental results obtained for different colloidal systems are corroborated by a theoretical model and thoroughly validated with fluid dynamics and Brownian dynamics simulations. The excellent agreement between experimental, theoretical and simulation data allows us to provide a solid and comprehensive explanation of the observed physical phenomena. This Letter, using an advanced dynamic light scattering technique, offers insights into the field of nonequilibrium particle dynamics, applicable not only to colloidal suspensions affected by steady-state diffusion-convection but also to other nonequilibrium scenarios, such as systems driven by external fields (e.g., gravitational, electric or magnetic fields).

The density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) is widely acknowledged as a highly effective and accurate method for solving one-dimensional quantum many-body systems. However, the direct application of DMRG to the study of two-dimensional systems encounters challenges due to the limited entanglement encoded in the underlying wave-function Ansatz, known as the matrix product state. Conversely, Clifford circuits offer a promising avenue for simulating states with substantial entanglement, albeit confined to stabilizer states. In this work, we present the seamless integration of Clifford circuits within the DMRG algorithm, leveraging the advantages of both Clifford circuits and DMRG. This integration leads to a significant enhancement in simulation accuracy with small additional computational cost. Moreover, this framework is useful not only for its current application but also for its potential to be easily adapted to various other numerical approaches.

Y. Sakawaet al.
An experimental investigation of collisionless shock ion acceleration is presented using a multicomponent plasma and a high-intensity picosecond duration laser pulse. Protons are the only accelerated ions when a near-critical-density plasma is driven by a laser with a modest normalized vector potential. The results of particle-in-cell simulations imply that collisionless shock may accelerate protons alone selectively, which can be an important tool for understanding the physics of inaccessible collisionless shocks in space and astrophysical plasma.
