First-principles real-space embedding theory of the superconducting proximity effect

Nicolas Baù, Mitra Dowlatabadi, Tommaso Chiarotti, Massimo Capone, and Antimo Marrazzo

Phys. Rev. Research 8, 033184 (2026) - Published 14 August, 2026

A Green’s-function framework based on real-space dynamical embedding is presented for first-principles simulations of superconducting proximity effects at interfaces. The method treats normal and anomalous renormalizations on equal footing and addresses the mesoscopic length scales and small energy scales characteristic of the effect without explicitly modeling thick slabs.

Strain- and confinement-induced topological phases in noncentrosymmetric wurtzite HgTe

Antoine Hage, Jing Li, and Christophe Delerue

Phys. Rev. Research 8, 033323 (2026) - Published 16 September, 2026

First-principles, tight-binding, and $k$ $\cdot$ $p$ calculations are used to examine how strain and quantum confinement affect the electronic topology of wurtzite HgTe. The study relates bulk Dirac points along the wurtzite $c$ axis to strain-dependent phases, orientation-dependent thin-film topology, and edge-localized states in nanowires.

Yu-Hang Wang, Ming Li, and Quan-Jie Jia

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032001 (2026) - Published 6 July, 2026

An analytical wave-optical framework for cylindrically bent Laue crystals is developed from the Takagi-Taupin theory. The framework separates geometric, kinematical, and higher-order scattering contributions and provides monochromatic and polychromatic focusing conditions together with a conservation relation describing aperture effects

Positron transport and cooling with ${CF}_{4}$ in an inhomogeneous magnetic field

J. von der Linden, A. Deller, S. Nißl, K. Michishio, H. Higaki, and E. V. Stenson

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032002 (2026) - Published 6 July, 2026

Time-resolved measurements of positrons confined in a magnetic dipole trap and interacting with CF $_{4}$ show a transition in the dominant loss channel from positronium formation to cross-field transport as the gas cools the positrons below the charge-exchange threshold. Gamma-ray annihilation spectra and ramped ejection measurements are used to separate electrostatically trapped and magnetically trapped populations and to quantify the associated scattering and cooling dynamics.

LETTER

Particle-hole origin of thermal beating in dipole-compression modes of a one-dimensional Bose gas

Caroline Mauron, Karen V. Kheruntsyan, and Giulia De Rosi

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032003 (2026) - Published 9 July, 2026

This work reports a beating signal of two dipole-compression collective mode frequencies evolving from the low-temperature phononic hydrodynamic regime to the collisionless limit at the hole-induced anomaly temperature. The lower (higher) frequency originates from hole (particle) spectral states, and the temperature dependence of their relative excitation strengths reflects the thermal population imbalance between particle and hole states across the anomaly temperature.

LETTER

Smallest quantum codes for amplitude-damping noise

Sourav Dutta, Aditya Jain, and Prabha Mandayam

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032004 (2026) - Published 10 July, 2026

This work presents a three-qubit quantum error correcting code that corrects all single-qubit amplitude-damping errors and extends it to a family of codes that correct amplitude-damping noise up to any fixed order in the damping strength. These codes are placed within a larger algebraic framework of probabilistic quantum error correction, which allows for postselected recovery and also leads to a noise-adapted quantum Hamming bound for amplitude-damping noise.

Insertion space in repulsive active matter

Luke K. Davis and Karel Proesmans

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032007 (2026) - Published 17 July, 2026

The statistical geometry of active repulsive (or hard) rods and disks is explored using both theory and simulations. It is found that increasing the persistence of the active particle motion increases the total insertion volume and its surface area: the averaged space available to place another particle without overlaps. As a result, the insertion space also becomes more connected in the presence of activity.

Efficient associative ionization of ultracold lithium and the long-lived ${Li}_{2}^{+}$

N. Joshi, Vaibhav Mahendrakar, M. Niranjan, Raghuveer Singh Yadav, E. Krishnakumar, A. Pandey, R. Vexiau, O. Dulieu, and S. A. Rangwala

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032008 (2026) - Published 17 July, 2026

An 813 nm excitation of ultracold lithium atoms drives associative ionization with a giant collisional cross section, efficiently producing Li $_{2}^{+}$ ions. The stability of the formed molecular ions is investigated. A subset of deeply bound Li $_{2}^{+}$ ions are identified to be resistant against dissociation and remain long-lived in the presence of ultracold atoms.

Constraints on the Thomson optical depth to the Cosmic Microwave Background from the Lyman- $α$ forest

Olga Garcia-Gallego, Vid Iršič, Martin G. Haehnelt, and James S. Bolton

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032009 (2026) - Published 20 July, 2026

The imprint of the thermal history of the intergalactic medium on the Lyman-alpha forest in the spectra of distant QSOs is used to constrain the Thomson optical depth to the cosmic microwave background (CMB). The analysis suggests a mild tension of high-resolution Lyman-alpha forest data with recently suggested large values of the optical depth to the CMB, in agreement with the direct measurements by the $P l a n c k$ satellite.

Rheology of dense vibrated granular flows: Nonmonotonic response controlled by granular temperature

A. Plati, G. Petrillo, L. de Arcangelis, A. Gnoli, A. Puglisi, A. Sarracino, and E. Lippiello

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032010 (2026) - Published 21 July, 2026

When subjected to vibrations, the effective viscosity of a granular medium depends heavily on both confining pressure and vibration parameters. In this work, experimentally calibrated discrete element simulations of a vane rheometer are used to provide a unified framework that reconciles experimental observations. The results show that confining pressure directly dictates the rheological response, while vibration effects are mediated by the granular temperature, which results from a balance between energy input and internal dissipation.

LETTER

Observation of period doubling and higher multiplicities in a driven single-spin system

Dhruv Deshmukh, Raúl B. González, Roberto Sailer, Fedor Jelezko, Ressa S. Said, and Joachim Ankerhold

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032011 (2026) - Published 21 July, 2026

An individual spin-1/2 realized by a nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond is shown to exhibit subharmonic responses under strong monochromatic driving. Theoretical modeling of the driven nitrogen-vacancy dynamics and stroboscopic photoluminescence measurements identify period doubling, tripling, quadrupling, and quintupling.

Asymptotically exact solution of the non-Hermitian disordered interacting Hatano-Nelson chain

Valéria M. Mattiello, Victor L. Quito, and Eduardo Miranda

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032012 (2026) - Published 22 July, 2026

This article presents an exact low-energy solution of a one-dimensional model of interacting disordered spinless fermions with non-Hermitian hopping, equivalently formulated as a non-Hermitian spin-1/2 chain. The solution exhibits finite-temperature divergent spin susceptibilities and shows that non-Hermiticity suppresses the entanglement entropy relative to the corresponding Hermitian model, eliminating the associated entanglement scaling.

LETTER

Validating the calibrated creation of heralded single photons

Daniel Borrero Landazabal and Kaisa Laiho

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032013 (2026) - Published 22 July, 2026

For attributing a free-propagating heralded single quantum, several light characteristics such as the number of the emitted modes, mean photon number, and photon-number parity are needed. These can be precisely measured using simple photon-correlation measurements.

LETTER

Mixed state entanglement via the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality

Nishaant Jacobus, Paul Brumer, and Chern Chuang

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032014 (2026) - Published 23 July, 2026

This work develops an approach to analyze the quantum entanglement of mixed states by comparing the relative magnitudes of populations and coherences of the density operator. This is applied to models of light-matter interaction to examine how the symmetries of the interaction influence entanglement in thermal and nonequilibrium steady states.

Hilbert space fragmentation in a driven-dephasing Rydberg atom array

Tianyi Yan, Chun Hei Leung, and Weibin Li

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032015 (2026) - Published 28 July, 2026

In the driven-dephasing dynamics of a resonant laser-driven chain of strongly interacting Rydberg atoms, multiple long-lived metastable plateaus arise from Hilbert space fragmentation captured by an effective dephasing PXP model. The model supports degenerate zero modes that form disconnected subspaces classified by a consecutive double excitation addressing operator, with the number of subspaces growing exponentially with chain length according to a modified Fibonacci recurrence.

LETTER

Peng-Yu Duan, Xi Chen, and Katepalli R. Sreenivasan

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032016 (2026) - Published 30 July, 2026

This work derives Reynolds number scaling for energy dissipation moments in wall turbulence, distinguishing outer and near-wall regions. Direct numerical simulations show standard power-laws in the outer region and bounded asymptotic behavior near the wall. The work highlights the need for solid boundaries in generating Onsager-type singularities.

LETTER

Attosecond photoionization delays as time-domain photoelectron holography in polyatomic molecules

Ling-Hui Yao, Alexandra S. Landsman, Xu Wang, Liang-Wen Pi, and Yuxi Fu

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032017 (2026) - Published 31 July, 2026

In iodopropane isomers, direct electron waves emitted via the iodine 4 $d$ giant dipole resonance interfere with waves scattered by the propyl group. A single-scattering analysis shows how this interference encodes molecular geometry in attosecond delays that survive orientation averaging and are consistent with the experimentally observed isomer delay difference.

LETTER

Quantum speedup from nonclassical polarization

Tim Aßbrock, Jan Sperling, and Laura Ares

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032018 (2026) - Published 3 August, 2026

Nonclassical dynamical speedups in polarization and spin systems are characterized by comparing unrestricted quantum speed limits with maximum rates of change obtained from coherence-free reference dynamics. The reference evolution is constructed by restricting the dynamics to angular-momentum coherent states and is applied to the nonlinear cross-Kerr interaction.

V. Flores, H. Allison, D. Attiyah, N. Beier, P. Efthimion, K. A. Flippo, L. Gao, S. Hakimi, K. Hill, R. Hollinger, M. Logantha, Y. Musthafa, R. Nedbailo, V. Senthilkumaran, R. Shepherd, V. N. Shlyaptsev, H. Song, S. Wang, J. J. Rocca, A. E. Hussein, and F. Dollar

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032019 (2026) - Published 4 August, 2026

In ultrahigh-contrast, $s$ -polarized laser-solid interactions, high-order harmonic generation from an overdense copper plasma surface is demonstrated in the ultrarelativistic intensity regime. In this regime, the dominant absorption mechanism is $J$ $\times$ $B$ heating, such that this is a purely relativistic process. Particle-in-cell simulations show that a single absorption process enables a range of intensity-dependent current dynamics, giving rise to harmonic orders consistent with the observed spectral trends.

Finite spinon density of states in triangular lattice delafossite ${TlYbSe}_{2}$

Bishnu P. Belbase, Arjun Unnikrishnan, Shi Feng, Eun Sang Choi, Johannes Knolle, and Arnab Banerjee

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032021 (2026) - Published 11 August, 2026

TlYbSe $_{2}$ is a triangular-lattice frustrated magnet that exhibits no long-range order down to 30 mK, indicating a ground state that could be a quantum spin liquid. Heat capacity shows a peculiar linear trend that can be reconciled with theory based on $U$ (1) gauge flux excitations interacting with emergent fermions, providing compelling evidence for a $U$ (1) quantum spin liquid state.

Many-body quantum optics in a Bose-Hubbard waveguide

Federico Roccati

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032022 (2026) - Published 12 August, 2026

How do quantum emitters behave when coupled to a Bose-Hubbard waveguide populated by repulsively interacting photons? This work shows that photon-photon interactions can trigger a superradiant burst at fixed emitter spacing and frequency, while coherent emitter interactions persist over long distances in the superfluid regime but become short-ranged in the Mott regime.

When spin-orbit coupling meets local lattice distortions in Mott-like insulator iridates: The case of ${Sr}_{2} {IrO}_{4}$

A. Zafar, M. Jakhar, AM Milinda Abeykoon, and V. Petkov

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032024 (2026) - Published 12 August, 2026

Total x-ray scattering, structural modeling, and density functional theory calculations are used to investigate the relationship between local lattice distortions and the electronic structure of the spin-orbit-coupled Mott-like insulator Sr $_{2}$ IrO $_{4}$ . Local lattice distortions, arising from the presence of two distinct IrO $_{6}$ octahedral layers without a reduction of the average crystal symmetry, are identified, and their temperature evolution is shown to be consistent with the observed enhancement of the electronic band gap.

Dynamical Hubbard approach to correlated materials: The case of transition-metal monoxides

Mario Caserta, Tommaso Chiarotti, Marco Vanzini, and Nicola Marzari

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032026 (2026) - Published 19 August, 2026

First-row transition-metal monoxides carry a complex interplay between screening, localization, and hybridization throughout the filling of the 3 $d$ shell. The loss of quasiparticle weight and formation of satellite structures is described, incorporating both local and nonlocal spin-resolved excitations of the screened effective interaction, and the changing nature of the crystal environment around the localized charges is captured via the local Green’s function of the correlated subspace.

Neural-network-assisted Boltzmann approach for dilute microswimmer suspensions

Haruki Hayano, Akira Furukawa, and Kang Kim

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032029 (2026) - Published 21 August, 2026

A neural network trained on two-body hydrodynamic simulations learns the binary-collision map of microswimmers and uses it directly as microscopic input to Boltzmann collision integrals. For a representative swimmer model, the framework predicts rotational and translational diffusivities consistent with dilute-regime many-body simulations, assesses isotropic-state stability, and reveals which collision geometries dominate macroscopic transport and polar ordering.

Krzysztof Argasiński, Jacek Miękisz, and Andrew Morozov

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032031 (2026) - Published 26 August, 2026

The importance of nonasymptotic metastable states in continuous deterministic evolutionary game models is highlighted. In the demographic version of the Hawk-Dove game, which is a paradigmatic model of the evolution of aggressive behavior, it is shown that metastates, known as ghost attractors, provide a temporal rescue from the eventual evolutionary suicide and extinction.

LETTER

Negative hybridization: A potential cure for braiding with imperfect Majorana modes

Cole Peeters, Themba Hodge, and Stephan Rachel

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032032 (2026) - Published 27 August, 2026

The degeneracy breaking hybridization between Majorana zero modes leads to unwanted dynamic phase accumulation and thus introduces error to topological quantum gates. In certain regimes, the effects of hybridization can be cancelled by the inclusion of an equal amount of “negative hybridization” that has been demonstrated via simulation to drastically reduce dynamic errors in $\sqrt{Z}$ , $\sqrt{X}$ , and ᴄɴᴏᴛ gates.

Xian-Li Yin, Meixi Guo, Jian Huang, Heung-wing Joseph Lee, and Guofeng Zhang

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032035 (2026) - Published 31 August, 2026

Measurement-feedback control of driven-dissipative quantum batteries in waveguide-QED systems is investigated. The feedback enables perfect charging without coherent driving for a single-atom battery and, together with collective effects, generates a boundary time-crystal phase with persistent energy oscillations and two stationary charging phases in many-body battery arrays.

Pushing-induced arrest across lattices and dimensions

I. Shitrit, O. Lauber Bonomo, and S. Reuveni

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032036 (2026) - Published 31 August, 2026

While pushing is intuitively associated with progress, it can surprisingly cause tracers moving in disordered environments to become permanently confined. This study shows that confinement is a result of irreversible “door-closing” events, providing a minimal description of pushing-induced arrest across lattices and dimensions.

Robust correlation-induced localization under time-reversal symmetry breaking

Bikram Pain, Sthitadhi Roy, Jens H. Bardarson, and Ivan M. Khaymovich

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032037 (2026) - Published 31 August, 2026

The correlation-induced localization, that is, the Anderson localization in long-range models with correlated hopping, is found to be robust to time-reversal symmetry (TRS) breaking up to a certain critical TRS breaking parameter. It is also shown that, unlike eigenstate localization properties, the wave-packet dynamics is fragile to any TRS breaking and undergoes a transition from subdiffusion at TRS to diffusion otherwise.

Spin inertia as a source of topological magnons: Chiral edge states from coupled precession and nutation

Subhadip Ghosh, Mikhail Cherkasskii, Ritwik Mondal, Alexander Mook, and Levente Rózsa

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032040 (2026) - Published 3 September, 2026

It is shown on the example of a honeycomb ferromagnet that spin inertia hybridizes the precessional and nutational magnon bands, opening a topologically nontrivial gap whose size scales linearly with the strength of pseudodipolar interaction. Chern number calculations and spectra calculated in a slab geometry demonstrate the emergence of chiral edge modes within this gap.

Quantitative analysis of resonant ionization by smooth laser pulses: Connection between effective Hamiltonian theory and strong-field dressed continua

Jakob Nicolai Bruhnke and Jan Marcus Dahlström

Phys. Rev. Research 8, L032041 (2026) - Published 10 September, 2026

The strong asymmetry of Autler-Townes doublets in intense-field ionization has been attributed to either interfering ionization pathways or strong-field dressing of the continuum. These seemingly distinct interpretations are here shown to arise from a time-dependent effective Hamiltonian formalism, which is demonstrated to reproduce $a b$ $i n i t i o$ photoelectron spectra.

Phys. Rev. Research 8, 033239 (2026) - Published 27 August, 2026

Earth’s Hadley, Ferrel, and polar cells resemble the planet’s lungs, with storms, fronts, and eddies analogous to alveoli embedded within them. Using coarse graining as a form of atmospheric “spirometry”, this work maps kinetic-energy exchange between planetary-scale circulation and weather-scale motions, showing alternating geographic bands of upscale and downscale transfer driven by the planetary-scale cells’ convergence and divergence in the troposphere.
