HIGHLIGHTED ARTICLES

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Conservation laws for partially coherent waves

Mengdi Li, Hugo F. Schouten, and Taco D. Visser

Phys. Rev. A 114, 022211 (2026) - Published 18 August, 2026

The authors establish a relation between the conservation of coherence and the conservation of energy. They analyze partially coherent fields in the focal region of a converging lens, and show topological differences between the coherence flux and the energy flux.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Robust device-independent characterization of sharpness and incompatibility of unsharp instruments

Qian Zhang, Kai-Yu Yuan, Yan-Xin Rong, Zhen Shang, Yong-Jian Gu, and Ya Xiao

Phys. Rev. A 114, 022411 (2026) - Published 6 August, 2026

The authors present a device-independent protocol for characterizing unsharp quantum instruments using an entanglement‑assisted code with restricted classical communication between two parties. They experimentally demonstrate the predicted enhancement in decoding probability by implementing tunable unsharp measurements with a Mach-Zehnder interferometer.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Distributions of noisy expectation values over sets of measurement operators

Matthew Duschenes, Roger G. Melko, Juan Carrasquilla, and Raymond Laflamme

Phys. Rev. A 114, 022434 (2026) - Published 17 August, 2026

The authors extend analytical derivations for expectation value distributions to random mixed quantum states and general measurement operator sets, using a combinatorics framework to calculate their moments. Using simulated noisy brickwork circuits, they introduce an effective global depolarizing model that accounts for empirical peak behaviors and reveal that non-symmetric measurement sets yield distinct multimodal distributions.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Optimal absorption and emission of itinerant fields into a spin-ensemble memory

Linda Greggio, Tristan Lorriaux, Alexandru Petrescu, Mazyar Mirrahimi, and Audrey Bienfait

Phys. Rev. A 114, 022615 (2026) - Published 14 August, 2026

The authors calculate quantum memory efficiency in a cavity-coupled ensemble of spins by examining absorption and emission efficiency. Based on this they design a method for storage and retrieval that involves modulating the coupling strength between the cavity and the ensemble.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Soliton turbulence of a strongly driven one-dimensional Bose gas

Manon Ballu, Romain Dubessy, Aurélien Perrin, Hélène Perrin, and Anna Minguzzi

Phys. Rev. A 114, 023310 (2026) - Published 10 August, 2026

The authors investigate the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of a periodically driven one-dimensional Bose gas in a box trap, demonstrating a transition from a dilute soliton gas to a regime of soliton turbulence with strongly intertwined defects as the drive strength increases. Using an inverse scattering transform analysis, they identify distinct power-law decays in the momentum distribution that characterize each regime and discuss their feasibility for experimental observation.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Theory of the collective many-body subradiance in waveguide QED

Xin Wang, Junjun He, and Zeyang Liao

Phys. Rev. A 114, 023711 (2026) - Published 12 August, 2026

The authors develop an analytical theory for the complex subradiant eigenvalues of a finite one-dimensional emitter array coupled to an ideal or nonideal waveguide. They demonstrate that while Bragg-edge destructive interference drives an $N^{- 3}$ linewidth scaling with deep-subwavelength parity oscillations, near-field dipole-dipole interactions dominate the collective energy shift, which exhibits a distinct $N^{- 2}$ finite-size correction.

LETTER

Hamiltonian thresholds for objective records

Jie Gu

Phys. Rev. A 114, L020201 (2026) - Published 13 August, 2026

The author demonstrates that quantum objectivity does not scale monotonically with environment size, but instead exists within a certified “two-edge” observer window bounded by record distinguishability and residual dephasing. By identifying local environmental asymmetry as the fundamental resource driving readable records, this study exposes why a bath can efficiently decohere a system while still failing to forge a shared classical reality.

LETTER

Fractional power-law decay in the spontaneous emission of a two-level system

Hiroki Nakabayashi, Hayato Kinkawa, Takano Taira, and Naomichi Hatano

Phys. Rev. A 114, L020202 (2026) - Published 25 August, 2026

The authors reveal a fractional power-law decay in the spontaneous emission of a two-level system in the short- and long-time regimes. The fractional exponent is determined by the dispersion relation and spatial dimension of the environment.

LETTER

Error-correcting transition pulses for colocated spin ensembles without frequency selectivity

K. L. Wood and W. A. Terrano

Phys. Rev. A 114, L020401 (2026) - Published 13 August, 2026

The authors present a geometric approach to designing robust, simultaneous control pulses that approach the time-energy uncertainty limit. Robustness against errors in background fields, pulse area and coil alignment is demonstrated on colocated nuclear spin ensembles; due to the geometric nature of the approach it should be readily extensible to other pairs of qubits.

LETTER

Geometry-enabled radiation from structured paraxial electrons

M. S. Epov, I. E. Shenderovich, and S. S. Baturin

Phys. Rev. A 114, L020801 (2026) - Published 3 August, 2026

The authors show how the transverse geometry of a structured electron controls photon emission from a finite, locally field-free region. The resulting boundary radiation depends on wavefront curvature inherited from the electron’s prior evolution in a magnetic field.

LETTER

Resolving the blueshift in calculations of the EUV spectrum of multiply charged tin ions

M. L. Reitsma, J. Sheil, O. O. Versolato, E. V. Kahl, and J. C. Berengut

Phys. Rev. A 114, L020802 (2026) - Published 26 August, 2026

The authors report calculations of the EUV emission spectrum of Sn $^{12 +}$ with complete configuration interaction within the $n = 4$ shell and core-valence correlation. Their approach places the dominant emission feature at the experimental wavelength of 13.5 nm without any empirical fitting.

LETTER

Strong collective chiroptical response from electric-dipole interactions in atomic systems

Marcella L. Xavier, Felipe A. Pinheiro, and Romain Bachelard

Phys. Rev. A 114, L021101 (2026) - Published 19 August, 2026

Chiral arrangements of cold atoms can exhibit a strong collective chiroptical response mediated entirely by electric-dipole interactions, providing a route to probe chirality without relying on weak magnetic-dipole transitions. The response is tunable through probe detuning and strongly enhanced in the subwavelength regime, where it is associated with the formation of subradiant collective modes.

LETTER

Femtosecond chiroptical switching mediated by a geometric phase

Yang Liu, Peipei Ge, Yueming Zhou, Xiaosong Zhu, Min Li, and Peixiang Lu

Phys. Rev. A 114, L021102 (2026) - Published 25 August, 2026

The authors propose a femtosecond chiroptical switch in atomic hydrogen that maps the otherwise unobservable global phase of a Rabi‑oscillating system onto the chirality of a bound electron wave packet. They demonstrate that this global phase is dominated by a geometric phase accumulated during cyclic evolution on the Bloch sphere, which endows the switch with high robustness against variations in the control‑pulse area.

LETTER

Vortex dipoles in expanding shell-shaped Bose-Einstein condensates

A. Tononi

Phys. Rev. A 114, L021301 (2026) - Published 13 August, 2026

Vortex dipoles in expanding shell-shaped Bose-Einstein condensates induce measurable aspect-ratio variations determined by their displacement on a curved surface, enabling their experimental detection.

LETTER

Topological transport of solitons in composite linear-nonlinear lattices

Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Vladimir V. Konotop, and Dmitry A. Zezyulin

Phys. Rev. A 114, L021302 (2026) - Published 13 August, 2026

The combination of a static, topologically trivial optical lattice with a moving nonlinear lattice enables quantized soliton transport. In the topological regime, the soliton displacement can be predicted beforehand from the Chern number of the effective Hamiltonian.

LETTER

Engineering the winding number of a toroidal Bose condensate by accelerating dark solitons

Xiao-Lin Li, Ming Gong, Yu-Hao Wang, and Li-Chen Zhao

Phys. Rev. A 114, L021303 (2026) - Published 24 August, 2026

The authors demonstrate that the winding number of a toroidal Bose-Einstein condensate can be deterministically and robustly engineered by manipulating the motion of dark solitons via nonlinear coupling with the localized waves driven by external forces. The increment or decrement of the winding number is determined by the direction in which the soliton velocity crosses zero, and accelerating multiple dark solitons enables versatile tailoring of the winding number.

Momentum correlations of the Hawking effect in a quantum fluid

Marcos Gil de Olivera, Malo Joly, Antonio Z. Khoury, Alberto Bramati, and Maxime J. Jacquet

Phys. Rev. A 114, L021701 (2026) - Published 21 August, 2026

The authors calculate correlations between Hawking radiation, its partner wave inside the horizon, and greybody factors near an acoustic horizon in a driven-dissipative fluid of light. Resolving the correlations in the frequency domain allows one to weigh the contributions of each pair to the total output quantum state
