Author(s): John M. Mehlhaff, Alexander Y. Chen, Martin Luepker, and Yajie Yuan The first fully kinetic collisionless model of a rotating plasma accreting into a black hole reveals the role of pair creation and the plasma loading of the jet funnel.

Author(s): Mengfei He, Sungkyu Cho, Gianna Dafflisio, Sitaram Emani, and L. Mahadevan A simplified model of the heart’s mitral valve shows that flow fluctuations can cause a soft valve to close at about one-tenth the pressure required under steady flow. [Phys. Rev.

Author(s): JS. Smink, CW. Visser, and H. Lhuissier A new technique for generating solid fibers from a liquid jet is easier to model—and thus easier to control—than past methods. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 137, 144004] Published Fri Oct 02, 2026

Zudov Microwave-induced resistance oscillations (MIROs) occur when a two-dimensional electron gas is subjected to radiation of frequency $ω=2πf$ and varying magnetic field $B$. MIROs are periodic in $1/B$, with the period determined by the radiation frequency $ω$, and their amplitude scales with the radia… [Phys. Rev. Lett. 137...
