Synthesis of layered gold tellurides AuSbTe and Au$_2$Te$_3$ and their semiconducting and metallic behavior

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Emma A. Pappas, Rong Zhang, Cheng Peng, Robert T. Busch, Jian-Min Zuo | Summary: Previous studies on natural samples of pampaloite (AuSbTe) revealed the crystal structure of a potentially cleavable and/or exfoliable material, while studies on natural and synthetic montbrayite (Sb-containing Au$_2$Te$_3$) claimed various chemical compositions for […]

Cosmological constraints from weak lensing scattering transform using HSC Y1 data

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Sihao Cheng, Gabriela A. Marques, Daniela Grandón, Leander Thiele, Masato Shirasaki | Summary: As weak lensing surveys go deeper, there is an increasing need for reliable characterization of non-Gaussian structures at small angular scales. Here we present the first cosmological constraints with weak lensing scattering transform, a […]

Double Magnon-Roton Excitations in the Triangular-Lattice Spin Supersolid

Kavli Affiliate: Gang Su | First 5 Authors: Yuan Gao, Chuandi Zhang, Junsen Xiang, Dehong Yu, Xingye Lu | Summary: Supersolid is an exotic quantum state of matter that spontaneously hosts the features of both solid and superfluid, which breaks the translation and U(1) gauge symmetries. Here we study the spin dynamics in the triangular-lattice […]

Spin Supersolid Phase and Double Magnon-Roton Excitations in a Cobalt-based Triangular Lattice

Kavli Affiliate: Gang Su | First 5 Authors: Yuan Gao, Chuandi Zhang, Junsen Xiang, Dehong Yu, Xingye Lu | Summary: Supersolid is an exotic quantum state of matter that hosts spontaneously the features of both solid and superfluidity, which breaks the lattice translational symmetry and U(1) gauge symmetry. Here we conduct inelastic neutron scattering (INS) […]

Jamming memory into acoustically trained dense suspensions under shear

Kavli Affiliate: Itai Cohen | Summary:Systems driven far from equilibrium often retain structural memories of their processing history. This memory has, in some cases, been shown to dramatically alter the material response. For example, work hardening in crystalline metals can alter the hardness, yield strength, and tensile strength to prevent catastrophic failure. Whether memory of […]

A Ramsey Neutron-Beam Experiment to Search for Ultralight Axion Dark Matter at the ESS

Kavli Affiliate: Yevgeny Stadnik | Summary:High-intensity neutron beams, such as those available at the European Spallation Source (ESS), provide new opportunities for fundamental discoveries. Here we discuss a novel Ramsey neutron-beam experiment to search for ultralight axion dark matter through its coupling to neutron spins, which would cause the neutron spins to rotate about the […]
