Quantum restoration of symmetry protected topological phases

Symmetry-protected topological phases are special states of matter that rely on symmetries to exhibit unique, robust properties. This work explores how these properties can reappear even when the symmetry seems broken at small scales, using a model system where quantum fluctuations effectively “restore" the symmetry and revive topological behavior.

Visualizing dynamics of charges and strings in (2 + 1)D lattice gauge theories

In a quantum simulation of a (2+1)D lattice gauge theory using a superconducting quantum processor, the dynamics of strings reveal the transition from deconfined to confined excitations as the effective electric field is increased.

Spin-Peierls instability of the U(1) Dirac spin liquid

Quantum spin liquids can emerge in frustrated magnets where quantum fluctuations prevent long-range order. Seifert et al. show that spin-lattice couplings can relieve magnetic frustration and destabilise 2D gapless quantum spin liquid states with fractionalised excitations, analogous to the 1D spin-Peierls instability.

Unveiling the S=3/2 Kitaev honeycomb spin liquids

Recently, material realizations of the spin 3/2 Kitaev honeycomb model have been proposed, but the model has not been solved by either analytical or numerical methods. Here the authors report exact results for the spin 3/2 model consistent with numerical simulations, and find gapped and gapless quantum spin liquids.

Local auxin biosynthesis acts downstream of brassinosteroids to trigger root foraging for nitrogen

Flowering plants elongate their lateral roots under mild nitrogen deficiency to enhance nutrient acquisition. Here the authors show that natural variation of this response depends on local auxin biosynthesis that acts downstream of brassinosteroids to determine lateral root extension.

Search for decoherence from quantum gravity with atmospheric neutrinos

Interactions of atmospheric neutrinos with quantum-gravity-induced fluctuations of the metric of spacetime would lead to decoherence. The IceCube Collaboration constrains such interactions with atmospheric neutrinos.

Cdk5 controls lymphatic vessel development and function by phosphorylation of Foxc2

The mechanisms regulating lymphatic vessel development and function are still largely unknown. Here, the authors show that the protein kinase Cdk5 is required for lymphatic vessel development by regulating the activity of the transcription factor Foxc2 and its target genes.

Breakdown of magnons in a strongly spin-orbital coupled magnet

The observation of magnetic excitation continua in putative Kitaev spin liquid compounds is consistent with predictions of exotic quantum behavior, attracting significant interest. Here, the authors show the observed continua could instead be a consequence of realistic non-Kitaev interactions.

Differences in metalloproteinases and their tissue inhibitors in the cerebrospinal fluid are associated with delirium

Aksnes et al. evaluate the association between matrix metalloproteinases and their tissue inhibitors with delirium. Multivariate regression analyses find that while most associations are explained by acute trauma or pre-existing cognitive impairment, low TIMP-4 could be directly linked to delirium.
