  • Chiral antiferromagnets, such as Mn3Pt, host a variety of transport phenomena arising due to the chiral arrangement of the spins. Herein, the authors find two contributions to the anomalous hall effect in Mn3Pt, and through comparison with other chiral antiferromagnets develop a universal scaling law for the anomalous hall effect in chiral antiferromagnets.

  • Spin-momentum locking is a fundamental property of condensed matter systems. Here, the authors evidence parallel Weyl spin-momentum locking of multifold fermions in the chiral topological semimetal PtGa.

  • Electrochemical-mechanical issues bring challenges but create new opportunities to design innovative all-solid-state batteries. Here, the authors propose to use the (de)lithiation-stress-creep synergistic time-dependent evolution to boost the electrochemical performance of all-solid-state batteries.

  • Indan and tetralin are used as fuel additives and intermediates in the manufacture of many products, including thermal-stable jet fuel. Here the authors report a route for the synthesis of methylindan and tetralin by the hydrogenolysis of xylose or hemicellulose over a non-noble metal catalyst, followed by further reaction over zeolite H-ZSM-5.

  • Given that entangled states can store more information than unentangled ones, it would be natural to assume that highly-entangled data would always enhance capabilities of quantum machine learning models. Here, the authors show that this is not the case, in particular when the allowed number of measurements to incoherently learn quantum dynamics is low

  • Caustics, as a unique type of singularity in wave phenomena, occur in diverse physical systems. Here, the authors realize multi-dimensional customization of caustics with 3D-printed metasurfaces. This arbitrary caustic engineering is poised to bring new revolutions to many domains.

  • SAR11 bacteria and their phages are abundant in the oceans. Here the authors quantify the number of phage-infected SAR11 cells using microscopy techniques and discover phage-infected cells without any detectable ribosomes. They hypothesize that ribosomal RNA may be used for the synthesis of phage genomes.

  • In this work, the authors unveil a mechanism where the Citron homology domain regulates HPK1’s kinase domain, shedding light on the relationship between HPK1’s structure and function. This enhances our understanding of HPK1, an intracellular target for cancer immunotherapy and provides a direction for immuno-oncology drug discovery.

  • The amino acid transporter complex LAT1-4F2hc is considered a major drug target for many cancers. Here, the authors apply native mass spectrometry-based approaches to decode a complete LAT1-4F2hc assembly. To do this, they connect post-translational modification and endogenous phospholipid binding to super-dimerization, function and localisation of LAT1-4F2hc.

  • The widespread use of organoboronic acids has prompted the development of synthetic methodologies to meet the demands on structural diversity and functional group tolerance. Herein, the authors disclose a divergent radical dechloroborylation reaction enabled by dinuclear gold catalysis with visible light irradiation.

  • How the position of conspecifics is represented in the brain is not fully understood. Here authors show that the position of conspecifics is represented relative to self-position in the hippocampus of female mice, which is modulated by context and identity and improved through learning.

  • A promising strategy for scaling trapped-ion-based quantum technologies is to use fully integrated optical waveguides to deliver light to numerous ions at multiple sites. Here, the authors. optically address three ions using on-chip waveguides to deliver three distinct wavelengths per ion, and perform Rabi flopping on each ion simultaneously.

  • The fluctuating dynamics of a passive object suspended in an active fluid can provide fundamental insight into the fundamental non-equilibrium behavior of the fluid. Singh and Chaudhuri theoretically investigate the dynamics of a passive deformable droplet in active nematic turbulence and show how the motion of the droplet is influenced by the interplay of spatial correlations of the flow and the size of the droplet.

  • Current guidelines recommend stereotactic radiosurgery for brain metastasis measuring less than 3 cm but there is significant variability in outcomes following treatment. This study shows that in treatment naïve brain metastasis less than 3 cm, intrinsic biological differences across multiple histologies may influence response to stereotactic radiosurgery.
