| | | | | | 1 | Photoelectron Circular Dichroism of a Chiral Molecule Induced by Resonant Interatomic Coulombic Decay from an Antenna Atom
2025-06-25         | | Author(s): Stefan Yoshi Buhmann, Andreas Hans, Janine C. Franz, and Philipp V. Demekhin
We show that a nonchiral atom can act as an antenna to induce a photoelectron circular dichroism in a nearby chiral molecule in a three-step process: The donor atom (antenna) is initially resonantly excited by circularly polarized radiation. It then transfers its excess energy to the acceptor molecu… [Phys. Rev. Lett. 134, 253001] Published Tue Jun 24, 2025

We present the first complete next-to-next-to-next-to-leading-order calculation of the matching coefficients that link unpolarized flavor nonsinglet parton distribution functions with lattice QCD computable correlation functions. By using this high-order result, we notice a reduction in theoretical … [Phys. Rev. Lett. 134, 251902] Published Tue Jun 24, 2025

We perform the first search for ultralight dark matter using a magnetically levitated particle. A submillimeter permanent magnet is levitated in a superconducting trap with a measured force sensitivity of $0.2\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{fN}/\sqrt{\mathrm{Hz}}$. We find no evidence of a signal and derive… [Phys. Rev. Lett. 134, 251001] Published Tue Jun 24, 2025

In this Letter, we study the collinear limit of the energy-energy correlator in single-inclusive jet production in proton-proton and proton-nucleus collisions. We introduce a nonperturbative model that allows us to describe the energy-energy correlator in the entire angular region of the current exp… [Phys. Rev. Lett. 134, 251903] Published Tue Jun 24, 2025

2025-06-25         | | Author(s): Yoshitaka Hatta and Jakob Schoenleber
We propose a novel method to experimentally access the gravitational form factors of the charged pion ${π}^{+}$ through the Sullivan process in electron-proton scattering. We demonstrate that the cross sections of $J/ψ$ photoproduction and $ϕ$ electroproduction near the respective thresholds are dom… [Phys. Rev. Lett. 134, 251901] Published Tue Jun 24, 2025

Anderson localization, i.e., destructive quantum interference of multiple-scattering paths, halts transport entirely. Contrarily, time-dependent random forces expedite transport via Fermi acceleration, proposed as a mechanism for high-energy cosmic rays. Their competition creates interesting dynamic… [Phys. Rev.

In many condensed matter systems, long-range order emerges at low temperatures as thermal fluctuations subside. In the presence of competing interactions or quenched disorder, however, some systems can show unusual configurations that become more disordered at low temperature, a rare phenomenon know… [Phys.

Density-functional theory is well known to rely on approximations to the unknown exchange-correlation ($xc$) energy functional, which can be constructed from the satisfaction of a number of known properties. One of those properties is the asymptotic behavior of exchange and correlation in localized … [Phys. Rev. Lett. 134, 256401] Published Tue Jun 24, 2025
