  • Anderson Localization in a Two-Dimensional Metal

    Author(s): Morgan Thinel, Taketo Handa, Christie S. Koay, Daniel G. Chica, Nicholas Olsen, Apoorv Jindal, JeongHeon Choe, Xavier Roy, Xiaoyang Zhu, and Abhay N. Pasupathy A new layered material enabled researchers to document a dramatic change in metallic electron behavior as the material goes from 3D to 2D. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 136, 096401] Published Tue Mar 03, 2026

  • Self-Organized Criticality in Atmospheric Rivers

    Author(s): Shang Wang, Jun Meng, Sheng Fang, Teng Liu, Kim Christensen, Jürgen Kurths, and Jingfang Fan A statistical-physics-based analysis of the full life cycle of atmospheric rivers finds universal signatures of self-organized criticality. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 136, 094201] Published Mon Mar 02, 2026

  • Magnetic Signature of Chiral Phonons Revealed by Neutron Spectroscopy in Ferrimagnetic ${\mathrm{Fe}}_{1.75}{\mathrm{Zn}}_{0.25}{\mathrm{Mo}}_{3}{\mat...

[Phys. Rev. Lett. 136, 096502] Published Mon Mar 02, 2026

  • Lenticular Hexagon-to-Hexagram Shape Transformation: Nano-Origami in Liquid Droplets

    Author(s): Catherine Quilliet, Alexander V. Butenko, and Eli Sloutskin An oil droplet within a watery fluid becomes nonspherical at certain temperatures—reversibly transforming from a hexagon to a six-pointed star. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 136, 084002] Published Fri Feb 27, 2026

  • Decay of Two-Dimensional Superfluid Turbulence over Pinning Surface

    Author(s): Filip Novotný, Marek Talíř, and Emil Varga Experiments with superfluid helium in nanofluidic channels show that quasi‑2D quantum turbulence decays with a universal fast transient followed by a slower, geometry‑dependent regime. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 136, 084003] Published Fri Feb 27, 2026

  • Spin-Split Superconductivity in Spin-Orbit Coupled Hybrid Nanowires with Ferromagnetic Barriers

    Author(s): J. Zhao, A. Mazanik, D. Razmadze, Y. Liu, P. Krogstrup, F. S. Bergeret, and S. Vaitiekėnas Tunneling spectroscopy on hybrid Josephson junctions (made of a ferromagnetic insulator, a semiconductor, and aluminum) reveals spin-split superconductivity. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 136, 086302] Published Fri Feb 27, 2026

  • Approximate Normalizations for Approximate Density Functionals

    Author(s): Adam Clay, Kiril Datchev, Wenlan Miao, Adam Wasserman, Kimberly J. Daas, and Kieron Burke By applying a dimensionality and potential-dependent normalization instead of normalizing electron density to the number of electrons in DFT calculations yields better results than the same functional evaluated on the exact density.
