EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Collisions Enhance Self-Diffusion in Odd-Diffusive Systems

Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 090601 (2022) - Published 25 August, 2022

Due to an inherent curving effect in systems with odd diffusivity, the motion of particles is facilitated instead of hindered by collisions, leading to a mutual rolling effect.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Xenon and Krypton Dissolved in Water Form Nanoblobs: No Evidence for Nanobubbles

Angela M. Jaramillo-Granada, A. D. Reyes-Figueroa, and J. C. Ruiz-Suárez

Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 094501 (2022) - Published 22 August, 2022

Dynamic light scattering experiments reveal that “blob” domains of nanostructured xenon and krypton gas form inside depressurized water instead of the expected nanobubbles.

Kazuyuki Kuroyama, Sadashige Matsuo, Jo Muramoto, Shunsuke Yabunaka, Sascha R. Valentin, Arne Ludwig, Andreas D. Wieck, Yasuhiro Tokura, and Seigo Tarucha

Propagating acoustic phonons flip the spin of single electrons inside a nearby GaAs double-quantum-dot device.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Entanglement between Muon and $I > \frac{1}{2}$ Nuclear Spins as a Probe of Charge Environment

Pietro Bonfà, Jonathan Frassineti, John M. Wilkinson, Giacomo Prando, Muhammad Maikudi Isah, Chennan Wang, Tiziana Spina, Boby Joseph, Vesna F. Mitrović, Roberto De Renzi, Stephen J. Blundell, and Samuele Sanna

Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 097205 (2022) - Published 26 August, 2022

The observed quantum coherence between the spins of muons and quadrupolar nuclei is highly sensitive to a local charge environment, and can thus be used as an environmental sensor.
