  • Highly Nonlinear Light-Nucleus Interaction

    Author(s): Hanxu Zhang, Tao Li, and Xu Wang Hydrogenlike thorium-229 ions interacting with intense lasers could unlock a highly nonlinear and nonperturbative regime of light-nucleus interaction. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 133, 152503] Published Fri Oct 11, 2024

  • Ballistic Electron Source with Magnetically Controlled Valley Polarization in Bilayer Graphene

    Author(s): Josep Ingla-Aynés, Antonio L. R. Manesco, Talieh S. Ghiasi, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, and Herre S. J. van der Zant A valley-polarized current source in bilayer graphene has been made by electrostatically defining quantum point contact pairs that work as a coherent valley-polarized current splitter and collector. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 133, 156301] Published Fri Oct 11, 2024

  • Predictive Framework for Flow Reversals and Excursions in Turbulence

    Author(s): Balachandra Suri A new framework shows that the occurrence of reversals and excursions of large-scale circulations in turbulent geophysical, fluid, and thermal systems can be predicted and averted via feedback control. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 133, 154002] Published Thu Oct 10, 2024

  • Traveling Wave Amplification in Stationary Gratings

    Author(s): S. A. R. Horsley and J. B. Pendry Compression and quantum emission phenomena that are predicted in moving refractive index profiles can be equivalently realized in nonmoving, modulated systems. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 133, 156903] Published Thu Oct 10, 2024

  • Mechanics and Morphology of Proliferating Cell Collectives with Self-Inhibiting Growth

    Author(s): Scott Weady, Bryce Palmer, Adam Lamson, Taeyoon Kim, Reza Farhadifar, and Michael J. Shelley A growing cell colony can develop concentric wavelike patterns in cell size due to purely mechanical processes such as the inevitable collisions between cells. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 133, 158402] Published Thu Oct 10, 2024

  • Quantum Geometry and Stabilization of Fractional Chern Insulators Far from the Ideal Limit

    Author(s): Gal Shavit and Yuval Oreg A new coupled-wire construction provides a direct link between fractional Chern-insulator stability, electron-electron interaction parameters, and quantum geometrical properties of the strongly-correlated band hosting it. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 133, 156504] Published Wed Oct 09, 2024

  • Greater than Five-Order-of-Magnitude Postcompression Temporal Contrast Improvement with an Ionization Plasma Grating

    Author(s): M. R. Edwards, N. M. Fasano, A. M. Giakas, M. M. Wang, J. Griff-McMahon, A. Morozov, V. M. Perez-Ramirez, N. Lemos, P. Michel, and J. M. Mikhailova When two laser beams converge on a volume of gas, their interference creates a diffraction grating made of plasma that can divert and shape a third beam. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 133, 155101] Published Tue Oct 08, 2024
