Article Abstract
We explore the dynamics of a tuneable box-trapped Bose gas under strong periodic forcing in the presence of weak disorder. In absence of interparticle interactions, the interplay of the drive and disorder results in an isotropic nonthermal momentum distribution that shows subdiffusive dynamic scaling, with sublinear energy growth and the universal scaling function captured well by a compressed exponential. We explain that this subdiffusion in momentum space can naturally be understood as a random walk in energy space. We also experimentally show that for increasing interaction strength, the gas behavior smoothly crosses over to wave turbulence characterized by a power-law momentum distribution, which opens new possibilities for systematic studies of the interplay of disorder and interactions in driven quantum systems.

Endogenous Real Time Imaging Reveals Dynamic Chromosomal Mobility During Ligand-Mediated Transcriptional Burst Events.

Enhancers serve as the major genomic elements regulating mammalian signal-dependent transcriptional programs, characterized by alternating periods of target gene "bursting" and "non-busting" that require investigation of induced enhancer condensates and locus motility in real time to provide dynamic insights into signal/ligand-dependent regulatory events. Here, endogenous live cell imaging has revealed the altered chromosomal dynamics/condensate formation occurring during estrogen receptor α (ERα)-dependent target gene bursting/post-bursting and chronic activation events. Simultaneous DNA/RNA endogenous live imaging reveals that an increased mobility of acutely ERα-stimulated loci observed during the bursting phase is, unexpectedly, further increased in the subsequent non-burst phase.

Many transcription factors (TFs) contain intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) and are thought to form biomolecular condensates in the nucleus. These proteins can be conceptualized as block co-polymers, with the IDRs driving both homotypic and heterotypic protein-protein interactions and the DNA-binding domain (DBD) mediating heterotypic interactions with chromatin. While in vitro studies have predominantly reported micron-scale, spherical condensates in the absence of chromatin, TF condensates in live cells exhibit strikingly different behavior-adopting diverse, nanoscale, often aspherical morphologies and displaying sub-diffusive dynamics.

We investigate the spatially resolved dynamics of the collective amplitude Schmid-Higgs (SH) mode in disordered s-wave superconductors and fermionic superfluids. By analyzing the analytic structure of the zero-temperature SH susceptibility in the complex frequency plane, we find that, when the coherence length greatly exceeds the mean free path, (i) the SH response at fixed wave vectors exhibits late-time oscillations decaying as 1/t^{2} with frequency 2Δ, where Δ is the superconducting gap; (ii) subdiffusive oscillations with a dynamical exponent z=4 emerge at late times and large distances; and (iii) spatial oscillations at a fixed frequency decay exponentially, with a period that diverges as the frequency approaches 2Δ from above. When the coherence length is comparable to the mean free path, additional exponentially decaying oscillations at fixed wave vectors appear with a frequency above 2Δ.

Soft nanoparticles () bring great opportunities for broad fields by introducing shape deformability to NPs and launching the dimensionality of the structural unit topology for polymers. However, the intrinsic characteristics that govern ' unique properties and functions are still vague. Herein, sub-1 nm polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) units are covalently assembled into model systems with monodispersed structures and diverse topologies.

Hypothesis: The diffusion of colloidal particles on curved surfaces is crucial for understanding mass transport in a wide range of biological and physical systems. To date, most experimental studies on colloid diffusion on curved surfaces have focused on the behavior of isotropic colloids diffusing on soft oil-water interfaces. However, there has been no experimental work reported on how anisotropic colloids diffuse on hard spherical surfaces.
