  • Recovering fertilizers from wastewater has the potential to make intensive agriculture more sustainable and reduce aqueous pollution, but energy requirements could be prohibitive. A prototype photovoltaic–thermal electrochemical stripping system shows how distributed ammonia manufacturing can be achieved through solar energy in off-grid locations, thus reducing energy and environmental costs.

  • Parity-time symmetry breaking and related non-Hermitian phenomena, such as high-order exceptional points, have attracted significant interest across various experimental platforms. Here the authors demonstrate a third-order exceptional point induced by parity-time symmetry breaking in a dissipative trapped ion.

  • Disorder has emerged as a promising tool to manipulate properties of superconducting circuits. Here the authors demonstrate the use of disordered spinodal superconductor for fluxonium qubit fabrication and reveal an interesting correlation between the material disorder and the 1/f-type flux noise.

  • The transport behavior of the carriers residing in the lowest Landau level is hard to observe in most topological materials. Here, Liu et al. report a surprising angular dependence of the interlayer magnetoresistivity and Hall conductivity arising from the lowest Landau level under high magnetic field in type II Weyl semimetal YbMnBi2.

  • Extreme magnetoresistance is characterized by a large and non-saturating magnetoresistance. Typically, it is observed in materials with compensated bandstructures, however, here, Christensen et al demonstrate a large and non-saturating magnetoresistance in a γAl2O3/SrTiO3 heterostructure, which is related to disorder, rather than the materials bandstructure.

  • Time delays in the responses of species to one another are expected to occur widely in nature. Using a new theoretical framework, the authors show that these delays can fundamentally shift how different communities respond to perturbations.

  • Device-independent quantum key distribution aims at the ultimate quantum-based unconditional security, but current protocols’ rates are quite far from anything practical. The authors’ protocol narrows this gap by using two randomly chosen key generating bases instead of one.

  • Chiral crystals with spin-orbit coupling (SOC) termed Kramers Weyl semimetals possess Weyl points at time-reversal invariant momenta. Here, the authors propose a new class of topological materials with doubly degenerate lines connecting time-reversal invariant momenta in achiral noncentrosymmetric materials with SOC.

  • The mechanism underpinning the frequency mismatch between THz magnons and the GHz spin currents observed in antiferromagnetic insulators remains unknown. Here, the authors demonstrate that, in a Py/Ag/CoO/Ag/Fe75Co25/MgO(001) heterostructure, a GHz spin current transmits coherently across the antiferromagnetic CoO insulating layer to drive a coherent spin precession of the ferromagnetic Fe75Co25 layer.

Here, the BESIII Collaboration extracts the absolute value of the ratio of the electric to magnetic form factors and its relative phase for e + e − → J/ψ â†’ ΛΣ decays, enhancing the signal thanks to the vacuum polarisation effect at the J/ψ peak.
