The notion of topological phases has been extended to higher-order and has been generalized to different dimensions. find more As a paradigm, Cd_3As_2 is predicted to be a higher-order topological semimetal, possessing three-dimensional bulk Dirac fermions, two-dimensional Fermi arcs, and one-dimensional hinge states. These topological states have different characteristic length scales in electronic transport, allowing one to distinguish their properties when changing sample size. Here, we report an anomalous dimensional reduction of supercurrent transport by increasing the size of Dirac semimetal Cd_3As_2-based Josephson junctions. An evolution of the supercurrent quantum interferences from a standard Fraunhofer pattern to a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID)-like one is observed when the junction channel length is increased. The SQUID-like interference pattern indicates the supercurrent flowing through the 1D hinges. The identification of 1D hinge states should be valuable for deeper understanding of the higher-order topological phase in a 3D Dirac semimetal.In this Letter, we discuss two general classes of apparent violations of the bulk-edge correspondence principle for continuous topological photonic materials, associated with the asymptotic behavior of the surface modes for diverging wave numbers. Considering a nonreciprocal plasma as a model system, we show that the inclusion of spatial dispersion (e.g., hydrodynamic nonlocality) formally restores the bulk-edge correspondence by avoiding an unphysical response at large wave numbers. Most importantly, however, our findings show that, for the considered cases, the correspondence principle is physically violated for all practical purposes, as a result of the unavoidable attenuation of highly confined modes even if all materials are assumed perfect, with zero intrinsic bulk losses, due to confinement-induced Landau damping or nonlocality-induced radiation leakage. Our work helps clarifying the subtle and rich topological wave physics of continuous media.Confirming the origin of Gilbert damping by experiment has remained a challenge for many decades, even for simple ferromagnetic metals. Here, we experimentally identify Gilbert damping that increases with decreasing electronic scattering in epitaxial thin films of pure Fe. This observation of conductivitylike damping, which cannot be accounted for by classical eddy-current loss, is in excellent quantitative agreement with theoretical predictions of Gilbert damping due to intraband scattering. Our results resolve the long-standing question about a fundamental damping mechanism and offer hints for engineering low-loss magnetic metals for cryogenic spintronics and quantum devices.Ultralight scalars are an interesting dark matter candidate that may produce a mechanical signal by modulating the Bohr radius. Recently it has been proposed to search for this signal using resonant-mass antennas. Here, we extend that approach to a new class of existing and near term compact (gram to kilogram mass) acoustic resonators composed of superfluid helium or single crystal materials, producing displacements that are accessible with opto- or electromechanical readout techniques. We find that a large unprobed parameter space can be accessed using ultrahigh-Q, cryogenically cooled centimeter-scale mechanical resonators operating at 100 Hz-100 MHz frequencies, corresponding to 10^-12-10^-6  eV scalar mass range.A study of the two-body decays B^±→X_cc[over ¯]K^±, where X_cc[over ¯] refers to one charmonium state, is reported by the BABAR Collaboration using a data sample of 424  fb^-1. The absolute determination of branching fractions for these decays are significantly improved compared to previous BABAR measurements. Evidence is found for the decay B^+→X(3872)K^+ at the 3σ level. The absolute branching fraction B[B^+→X(3872)K^+]=[2.1±0.6(stat)±0.3(syst)]×10^-4 is measured for the first time. It follows that B[X(3872)→J/ψπ^+π^-]=(4.1±1.3)%, supporting the hypothesis of a molecular component for this resonance.If dark matter was produced in the early Universe by the decoupling of its annihilations into known particles, there is a sharp experimental target for the size of its coupling. We show that if dark matter was produced by inelastic scattering against a lighter particle from the thermal bath, then its coupling can be exponentially smaller than the coupling required for its production from annihilations. As an application, we demonstrate that dark matter produced by inelastic scattering against electrons provides new thermal relic targets for direct detection and fixed target experiments.Using simulations and experiments, we demonstrate that the effective interaction between passive particles in an active bath substantially depends on an external constraint suffered by the passive particles. Particularly, the effective interaction between two free passive particles, which is directly measured in simulation, is qualitatively different from the one between two fixed particles. Moreover, we find that the friction experienced by the passive particles-a kinematic constraint-similarly influences the effective interaction. These remarkable features are in significant contrast to the equilibrium cases, and mainly arise from the accumulation of the active particles near the concave gap formed by the passive spheres. This constraint dependence not only deepens our understanding of the "active depletion force," but also provides an additional tool to tune the effective interactions in an active bath.We propose an all-optical method to directly reconstruct the band structure of semiconductors. Our scheme is based on the temporal Young's interferometer realized by high harmonic generation with a few-cycle laser pulse. As a time-energy domain interferometer, temporal interference encodes the band structure into the fringe in the energy domain. The relation between the band structure and the emitted harmonic frequencies is established. This enables us to retrieve the band structure from the spectrum of high harmonic generation with a single-shot measurement. Our scheme paves the way to study matters under ambient conditions and to track the ultrafast modification of band structures.
