We report on asymmetrically shaped Fano resonances in AlGaN/GaN-based quantum cascade structures. In order to observe this type of resonance in electro-luminescence, a spectrally narrow feature must interact with a broad, quasi-continuous emission. While the narrow waveform is provided by the GaN-based LO-phonon at 92 meV (13.5 µm, 741 cm), the broad peak consists of overlapping inter-subband transitions between several higher-order excited states ranging from 80 to 300 meV and the ground state. Through the interference of these spectrally dissimilar peaks, a typical, asymmetric Fano line shape is generated.

Magnon-phonon hybridization in ordered materials is a crucial phenomenon with significant implications for spintronics, magnonics, and quantum materials research. We present direct experimental evidence and theoretical insights into magnon-phonon coupling in Mn_{3}Ge, a kagome antiferromagnet with noncollinear spin order. Using inelastic x-ray scattering and ab initio modeling, we uncover strong hybridization between planar spin fluctuations and transverse optical phonons, resulting in a large hybridization gap of ∼2 meV.

We present the first results from the Quantum Resolution-Optimized Cryogenic Observatory for Dark matter Incident at Low Energy (QROCODILE). The QROCODILE experiment uses a microwire-based superconducting nanowire single-photon detector (SNSPD) as a target and sensor for dark matter scattering and absorption, and is sensitive to energy deposits as low as 0.11 eV.

We determine the low-energy constants f_{0}, L_{4}^{r} and L_{5}^{r} of SU(3) chiral perturbation theory from a lattice QCD calculation of the scalar form factors of the pion with fully controlled systematics. Lattice results are computed on a large set of N_{f}=2+1 gauge ensembles covering four lattice spacings a∈[0.049,0.

We report on a search for sub-GeV dark matter (DM) particles interacting with electrons using the DAMIC-M prototype detector at the Modane Underground Laboratory. The data feature a significantly lower detector single e^{-} rate (factor 50) compared to our previous search, while also accumulating a 10 times larger exposure of ∼1.3 kg-day.

Using e^{+}e^{-} collision data collected with the BESIII detector operating at the Beijing electron positron collider, the cross section of e^{+}e^{-}→π^{+}π^{-}h_{c} is measured at 59 points with center-of-mass energy sqrt[s] ranging from 4.009 to 4.950 GeV with a total integrated luminosity of 22.
