1. Simulating quantum measurements without superposition devices.
PMID:日期:2026-10-01Superposition is the core feature that sets quantum theory apart from classical physics. Here, we investigate whether sets of quantum measurements can be modelled by using devices limited to performing jointly diagonalisable measurements. This leads us to introduce classical measurement models, where many such devices are connected together through classical randomness and post-processing. Such classical measurement models are intermediate between the notion of commutative measurements and joint measurability. Towards understanding these models we (i) identify exact noise and loss rates at which all projective measurements admit a classical model, (ii) propose numerical methods to construct classical models for finite sets of measurements, and (iii) show how to construct witnesses for ruling out the existence of classical models. In addition, we show that classical measurement models also have operational implications in non-disturbance tasks where sequential quantum measurements are implemented with classical side-information. Our work provides a new approach to the role of superposition in quantum measurements.

2. The Higgs boson, naturalness, and the universe.
PMID:日期:2026-09-29The Higgs boson -the only known fundamental scalar particle -may have profound implications for both particle physics and cosmology. This review examines how the Higgs field may have influenced the Universe from its earliest moments to its present state. We first discuss particle-physics puzzles, including the naturalness and hierarchy problems, as well as the possible metastability of the electroweak vacuum. We then turn to cosmological scenarios where the Higgs boson could be a driving force, including Higgs inflation, reheating and the onset of the hot Big Bang, the electroweak phase transition, and baryogenesis via electroweak processes.

3. Small-angle solution scattering: from fundamental theory to practical approximations.
3. 小角溶液散射：从基础理论到实用近似PMID:日期:2026-09-28Small-angle scattering (SAS) with X-rays and neutrons is widely used in structural biology, soft matter, and colloidal science to probe molecular structures in solution. SAS rests on a single physical principle: wave interference from a distribution of scatterers. Yet the theoretical foundations of SAS are spread across the literature, often based on differing notation, definitions, and implicit assumptions. We present the theory of SAS in solution starting from the first Born approximation as a continuous derivation, spanning the scattering of a single electron to the observed intensity of a molecular solution and its comparison with atomistic structural models. The derivation is explicit throughout---approximations, averaging procedures, and algebraic manipulations are stated rather than assumed---and the resulting expressions are independent of the probe (X-ray or neutron) and apply to both rigid and flexible molecules. The framework resolves several ambiguities in the current literature, notably the role of background subtraction as a theoretical rather than a purely experimental operation and the role of boundary cross-terms in justifying that subtraction. A central result is that analytical scattering calculations and approaches based on explicit-solvent molecular dynamics, typically treated as distinct traditions, are realizations of the common theoretical framework derived here. As the precision and reproducibility of SAS data continue to increase, this comprehensive framework provides a basis for integrating theory, simulation, and experiment in future developments of SAS.

4. Observation of even-denominator fractional quantum Hall states at ν = 3/4 and 5/4 in the lowest Landau level.
PMID:日期:2026-09-25Two-dimensional electron systems (2DESs) confined to wide GaAs quantum wells (QWs) provide a unique platform to study exotic fractional quantum Hall states (FQHSs) because the 2DES has a bilayer charge distribution with significant interlayer tunneling. Precise control over the 2DES density allows the tuning of the interlayer tunneling over a wide range. Here, we present our discovery of new even-denominator FQHSs in the lowest Landau level (orbital index= 0) at filling factorsand 5/4 in an ultrahigh-quality 2DES confined to a 72.5 nm-wide GaAs QW. The ground states atand 5/4 both evolve from composite fermion (CF) Fermi seas to FQHSs as the density is raised so that interlayer tunneling is sufficiently reduced and the 2DES becomes two-component, signaled by the behavior of the FQHSs flankingand 5/4. The two-component nature of theand 5/4 FQHSs is also evident from their extreme sensitivity to the bilayer charge distribution symmetry: both states disappear quickly when the charge distribution is made asymmetric by only. We find a natural explanation for the 3/4 and 5/4 FQHSs in terms of two states linked by particle-hole symmetry, and using Scarola-Jain bilayer CF framework which is a generalization of the well-known, two-component, Halperin state (state). Our observations elucidate the crucial role of competing energy and length scales in wide QW in stabilizing new ground states.

5. Parallel adaptive reweighting importance sampling for Bayesian astrophysics.
5. 用于贝叶斯天体物理的并行自适应重加权重要性采样PMID:日期:2026-09-23Efficient sampling from high-dimensional, multi-modal posteriors is a central challenge in Bayesian inference across the physical sciences. Gravitational-wave (GW) astronomy, where likelihood evaluations are computationally expensive and posteriors are complex, is one application motivating this work. Popular families of methods like Markov-chain Monte Carlo, nested sampling, and importance sampling all rely on proposal distributions to guide exploration. Because prior knowledge of the target is often limited, practitioners can adopt adaptive proposals that iteratively refine themselves using information gained from previously drawn samples. Traditional adaptive strategies, however, struggle in high-dimensional multi-modal settings: complex, non-linear correlations are hard to capture, and hyperparameters typically require tedious, problem-specific tuning.
To address these issues, we introduce Parallel Adaptive Reweighting Importance Sampling (PARIS; descriptively, ``seed sampling''). PARIS models its proposal as a Gaussian mixture whose component centers are the existing samples and whose component weights match the current importance weights. New draws from the proposal therefore concentrate around high-weight regions, while candidate points in unexplored areas receive intentionally inflated weights. As the algorithm continuously reweights all samples up to the latest proposal, any initial over-weighting self-corrects once additional neighbor samples are collected.
To enable rapid reweighting, we present an efficient update scheme and evaluate PARIS on illustrative toy problems and more realistic gravitational-wave parameter estimation tasks. PARIS achieves accurate posterior reconstruction and evidence estimation with substantially fewer function evaluations than competing approaches, highlighting its promise for widespread use in astrophysical data analysis.

6. Singularities and the divergence of spherical harmonic expansions: axially symmetric planets.
6. 奇点与球谐展开的发散：轴对称行星PMID:日期:2026-09-23The region of convergence of the spherical harmonic expansion (SHE) is determined by the (generally complex) singularities of the gravitational potential. This complex analysis perspective is at the heart of recent rigorous results concerning the divergence properties of the SHE. In this paper we build physical intuition for these general mathematical results using illustrative examples (some familiar and some new) of idealized planets for which the analysis is particularly explicit. This approach provides new methods to determine the region of convergence, without computing and analyzing expansion coefficients, and gives a novel geometric understanding of the divergence phenomenon. It also explains the fundamental origin of the numerical instabilities inherent to polyhedral models of planets. For the sake of clarity, we illustrate this new approach for the special case of axisymmetric planets of constant density, with explicit comparisons, but the key ideas do not rely on these restrictions.

7. Toward high-temperature superconductivity in organic systems.
7. 迈向有机体系中的高温超导PMID:日期:2026-09-22Achieving high-temperature superconductivity has long been a formidable challenge. Organic materials, characterized by their flexible intermolecular interactions (including the flexibility of polymer chains) and hydrogen-rich composition, offer significant potential for realizing high-temperature superconductivity under relatively mild conditions. This review comprehensively summarizes the research progress in organic superconducting materials, including organic charge-transfer salts, carbon-based materials, aromatic compounds, and polymers. We elaborate on the structures and superconducting properties of these organic superconductors. Importantly, based on these advances in organic superconductor and ordered conjugated polymers, we propose the implementation of new material platforms and experimental methods to facilitate the discovery of new organic superconducting materials and explore high-temperature superconductivity. This includes constructing or searching for new materials, doping carriers, applying high pressure, and forming heterojunctions.

8. Phason-driven temperature-dependent transport in moiré graphene.
PMID:日期:2026-09-22The electronic and vibrational properties of 2D materials are dramatically altered by the formation of a moiré superlattice. The lowest-energy phonon modes of the superlattice are two acoustic branches (called) that describe the sliding motion of one layer with respect to the other. Considering their low-energy dispersion and damping, these modes may act as a significant source of scattering for electrons in moiré materials. Here, we investigate temperature-dependent electrical transport in minimally twisted bilayer graphene, a moiré system developing multiple weakly-dispersive electronic bands and a reconstructed lattice structure. We measure a linear-in-temperature resistivity across the band manyfold above∼ 10 K, preceded by a quadratic temperature dependence. While the linear-in-temperature resistivity is up to two orders of magnitude larger than in monolayer graphene, it is reduced (approximately by a factor of three) with respect to magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene. Moreover, it is modulated by the recursive band filling, with minima located close to the full filling of each band. Comparing our results with a semiclassical transport calculation, we show that the experimental trends are compatible with scattering processes mediated by longitudinal phasons, which dominate the resistivity over the contribution from conventional acoustic phonons of the monolayer. Our findings highlight the close relation between vibrational modes unique to moiré materials and carrier transport therein.

9. Electrical manipulation of centrosymmetric antiferromagnets by Néel torque.
PMID:日期:2026-09-22Electric control of Néel vector is a central task of antiferromagnetic (AFM) spintronics. The major scheme so far has relied on the Néel spin-orbit torque, which however is restricted to AFMs with broken inversion symmetry. Here, we explore a nonlinear Néel torque, uniquely enabling electric control in the vast class of centrosymmetric AFMs including altermagnets, where the existing scheme fails. This new type of Néel torque operates in both AFM metals and insulators, and can appear in all collinear AFM configurations in all the 122 magnetic point groups. Combined with first-principles calculations, we predict significant effects in centrosymmetric AFMs MnRh, MnBiTeand altermagnet CrSb. Our work offers a new and general strategy for Néel torque, significantly broadens the scope of electric control of AFM systems, and opens a new arena in the field of AFM spintronics.

10. {"_":"Pressure-induced Ising superconductivity in organic-intercalated 1-TaS.","i":["T"],"sub":["2"]}
PMID:日期:2026-09-21Layered transition metal dichalcogenides host a rich landscape of correlated electronic phases that are profoundly sensitive to interlayer coupling. Although both thinning and pressure have been individually used to tune these properties, the high-pressure behavior of low-dimensional systems remains largely unexplored. Here, we propose a synergistic tuning strategy by combination of organic cation intercalation and pressure to simulate the properties of low-dimensional materials under pressure. We show that intercalating cetyltrimethylammonium cations into the bulk 1-TaSsignificantly weakens the interlayer coupling and leads to an effective reduction in dimensionality. Moreover, the intercalated sample exhibits distinct features under high pressure as compared with non-intercalated one. The superconductivity in the intercalated sample is induced accompanied by a complete suppression of nearly commensurate charge density wave order, differing from the melting of commensurate state in the non-intercalated case. Upon further compression up to 58.1 GPa, the superconductivity displays a dome-shaped evolution, also without showing re-enhancement that presented in the non-intercalated sample. More strikingly, the superconductivity in the intercalated 1-TaSdisplays signatures of Ising superconductivity, with its in-plane upper critical field exceeding twice the Pauli paramagnetic limit. Our findings not only provide a powerful route for tuning the collective electronic states but also open up possibilities in searching for emergent phenomena in low-dimensional materials.
