Almost every electron microscopy experiment is fundamentally limited by radiation damage. Nevertheless, little is known about the onset and progression of radiolysis in beam-sensitive materials. Here we apply ambient-temperature scanning nanobeam electron diffraction to record simultaneous dual-space movies of organic and organometallic nanocrystals at sequential stages of beam-induced radiolytic decay. We show that the underlying mosaic of coherently diffracting domains undergoes internal rearrangement as a function of accumulating electron fluence, causing the intensities of some associated Bragg reflections to fade nonmonotonically. Furthermore, we demonstrate that repeated irradiation at a single probe position leads to the isotropic propagation of delocalized radiolytic damage well beyond the direct footprint of the incident beam. We refer to these expanding tides of amorphization as “impact craters.” Published by the American Physical Society2025

Plasma waves in the magnetosphere scatter electrons, causing them to precipitate into Earth’s atmosphere, imparting their temporal characteristics to diffuse auroras. In a case study of conjugate radar and satellite observations, we demonstrate a close and unprecedented association between enhanced electrostatic cyclotron harmonic wave activity in the magnetosphere and the appearance of meter-scale plasma turbulence a few seconds later in the lower ionosphere on nearby magnetic field lines. Such direct structuring of the ionosphere carries implications for our understanding of space weather. Published by the American Physical Society2025

Accurate and efficient theoretical techniques for describing ionic fluids are highly desirable for many applications across the physical, biological, and materials sciences. With a rigorous statistical mechanical foundation, classical density functional theory (cDFT) is an appealing approach, but the competition between strong Coulombic interactions and steric repulsion limits the accuracy of current approximate functionals. Here, we extend a recently presented machine learning (ML) approach [Sammüller , ] designed for systems with short-ranged interactions to ionic fluids. By adopting ideas from local molecular field theory, the framework we present amounts to using neural networks to learn the local relationship between the one-body direct correlation functions and inhomogeneous density profiles for a “mimic” short-ranged system, with effects of long-ranged interactions accounted for in a mean-field, yet well-controlled, manner. By comparing to results from molecular simulations, we show that our approach accurately describes the structure and thermodynamics of prototypical models for electrolyte solutions and ionic liquids, including size-asymmetric and multivalent systems. The framework we present acts as an important step toward extending ML approaches for cDFT to systems with accurate interatomic potentials. Published by the American Physical Society2025

The Wigner-Smith time delay of flux conserving systems is a real quantity that measures how long an excitation resides in an interaction region. The complex generalization of time delay to non-Hermitian systems is still under development, in particular, its statistical properties in the short-wavelength limit of complex chaotic scattering systems has not been investigated. From the experimentally measured multiport scattering (S</a:mi></a:math>) matrices of one-dimensional graphs, a two-dimensional billiard, and a three-dimensional cavity, we calculate the complex Wigner-Smith (<c:math xmlns:c="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><c:mrow><c:msub><c:mrow><c:mi>τ</c:mi></c:mrow><c:mrow><c:mi>WS</c:mi></c:mrow></c:msub></c:mrow></c:math>), as well as each individual reflection (<e:math xmlns:e="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><e:msub><e:mi>τ</e:mi><e:mrow><e:mi>x</e:mi><e:mi>x</e:mi></e:mrow></e:msub></e:math>) and transmission (<g:math xmlns:g="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><g:msub><g:mi>τ</g:mi><g:mrow><g:mi>x</g:mi><g:mi>y</g:mi></g:mrow></g:msub></g:math>) time delay.

It is known that the current of emitted electrons flowing through a plasma can saturate upon formation of a potential well adjacent to the cathode (the “space charge effect”). Here, we demonstrate another saturation mechanism that will often set a more restrictive limit on the global current. When “backflow saturation” occurs, the cathode sheath weakens to allow emitted electrons that already entered the plasma to backflow to the cathode. This effect could not be captured by studies modelling the cathode sheath by itself because its origin is coupled to processes in the interior plasma and anode sheath. By modeling a full plasma diode, we show that depending on conditions the global current can be limited in four ways; by backflow alone, by space charge alone, by both mechanisms in a stable cooperative form, or by both in a competing oscillatory form.

Atom interferometery is an exquisite measurement technique sensitive to inertial forces. However, it is commonly limited to a single sensitive axis, allowing high-precision multidimensional sensing only through subsequent or postcorrected measurements. We report on a novel method for multi-axis inertial sensing based on the correlation of simultaneous light-pulse atom interferometers in 2D array arrangements of Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC). Deploying a scalable 3×3 BEC array spanning 1.6mm2 created using time-averaged optical potentials, we perform measurements of linear acceleration induced by gravity and simultaneously demonstrate sensitivity to angular velocity and acceleration of a rotating reference mirror, as well as gravity gradients and higher-order derivatives. Our Letter enables simple, high-precision multi-axis inertial sensing compatible with high rotation rates, e.g., for inertial navigation in dynamic environments. We finally envision further applications of our method, e.g., 3D measurements and reconstruction of laser beam intensities and wave fronts. Published by the American Physical Society2025

Quantum oscillations (QOs) in metals refer to the periodic variation of thermodynamic and transport properties as a function of inverse applied magnetic field. QO frequencies are normally associated with semiclassical trajectories of Fermi surface orbits, but recent experiments challenge the canonical description. We develop a theory of composite frequency quantum oscillations (CFQOs) in two-dimensional Fermi liquids with several Fermi surfaces and interband scattering mediated by a dynamical boson, e.g., phonons or spin fluctuations. Specifically, we show that CFQOs arise from oscillations in the fermionic self-energy with anomalous frequency splitting and distinct strongly non-Lifshitz–Kosevich temperature dependences. Our theory goes beyond the framework of semiclassical Fermi surface trajectories highlighting the role of interaction effects. We provide experimental predictions and discuss the effect of nonequilibrium boson occupation in driven systems. Published by the American Physical Society2025

In the context of planar conformal gauge theory, we study five-point correlation functions between the interaction Lagrangian and four of the lightest single-trace, gauge-invariant scalar primaries. After performing two light-cone operator product expansions (OPEs), we express this correlator in terms of the three-point functions between two leading-twist spinning operators and the Lagrangian. For finite values of spin, we compute these structure constants in perturbation theory up to two loops in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. Large values of spin are captured by null polygon kinematics, where we use dualities with null polygon Wilson loops as well as factorization properties to bootstrap the universal behavior of the structure constants at all loops. We find explicit maps that relate the Lagrangian structure constants with the leading-twist anomalous dimension. From the large-spin map, we recover the cusp anomalous dimension at strong and weak coupling, including genus-one terms. Published by the American Physical Society2025

From the large-spin map, we recover the cusp anomalous dimension at strong and weak coupling, including genus-one terms. <jats:supplementary-material> <jats:copyright-statement>Published by the American Physical Society</jats:copyright-statement> <jats:copyright-year>2025</jats:copyright-year> </jats:permissions> </jats:supplementary-material>","PeriodicalId":20069,"journal":{"name":"Physical review letters","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143813744","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We present the first nuclear cross-section measurements of (p,γ) and (p,n) reactions on Te118 at energies relevant for the γ-process nucleosynthesis. Absolute cross-section values for center-of-mass energies of 6, 7 and 10 MeV are provided, together with a theoretical extrapolation to the Gamow window. This experiment marks the first time that direct proton-induced reactions have been measured on a radioactive ion beam at the Experimental Storage Ring (ESR) at GSI, Darmstadt. This paves the way for a large variety of measurements, delivering new constraints for explosive nucleosynthesis and for physics beyond nuclear stability.

We elucidate that a distinctive resonant excitation between quasinormal modes (QNMs) of black holes emerges as a universal phenomenon at an avoided crossing near the exceptional point through high-precision numerical analysis and theory of QNMs based on the framework of non-Hermitian physics. This resonant phenomenon not only allows us to decipher a long-standing mystery concerning the peculiar behaviors of QNMs but also stands as a novel beacon for characterizing black hole spacetime geometry. Our findings pave the way for rigorous examinations of black holes and the exploration of new physics in gravity. Published by the American Physical Society2025
