Article Abstract
Experimental observations of flux periodicity ϕ/2, where ϕ = h/e, for interference of the outermost edge mode in the integer quantum Hall regime have been attributed to an exotic electron pairing mechanism. We present measurements of an AlGaAs/GaAs Fabry-Pérot interferometer operated in the integer quantum Hall regime for filling factors 1 ≤ ν ≤ 3 that has been designed to simultaneously express measurable bulk-edge and edge-edge couplings. At integer fillings ν = 2 and ν = 3, we observe interference with flux periodicity ϕ/2 for the outermost edge mode. Our analysis indicates that the periodicity ϕ/2 is not driven by electron pairing but is the result of capacitive coupling between isolated edge modes and the interfering outer edge. The interfering unit of charge for the outermost edge mode at ν = 2 and ν = 3 was determined to be e = 1, where the effective charge e is normalized to the charge of an electron. Our measurements demonstrate that the magnitude of the interfering charge can be determined in operando in a Fabry-Pérot interferometer.

Accurate thermodynamic calculations for aluminum alkyls require proper treatment of low-frequency vibrations poorly described by the harmonic approximation (HA). Here, we present a systematic investigation of hindered rotation and out-of-plane bending in aluminum trichloride (ATC) and its methyl derivatives, employing advanced computational methods to perform anharmonic entropy corrections, such as torsional eigenvalue summation (TES), the extended two-dimensional torsion method (E2DT), the multi-structural approximation with torsional anharmonicity (MS-T), and Fourier grid Hamiltonian (FGH). Our results reveal distinct structure-dependent behaviors: monomers exhibit near-free methyl rotations where the HA overestimates entropy by 20-30 J K mol, while dimers show more hindered rotations adequately described by the HA around room temperature.

Nitrogenase accumulates reducing equivalents in hydrides and couples H elimination to the reductive binding of N at a di-iron edge of its FeMo cofactor (FeMoco). Here, we describe that oxidation of a pyrazolato-based dinickel(II) dihydride complex K[L(Ni-H)] (), either electrochemically or chemically using H or ferrocenium, triggers H elimination and binding of N in a constrained and extremely bent bridging mode in [LNi(μ-N)] (). Spectroscopic and computational evidence indicate that the electronic structure of is best described as Ni-(N)-Ni, with a rare 1e reduced and significantly activated N substrate ( = 1894 cm).

Strong electron-hole interactions in a semimetal or narrow-gap semiconductor may drive a ground state of condensed excitons. Monolayer WTe has been proposed as a host material for such an exciton condensate, but the order parameter─the key signature of a macroscopic quantum-coherent condensate─has not been observed. Here, we use Fourier-transform scanning tunneling spectroscopy (FT-STS) to study quasiparticle interference (QPI) and periodic modulations of the local density of states (LDOS) in monolayer WTe.

The archaeological excavations undertaken at the Chalcolithic necropolis of Los Milanes have revealed a previously unknown variability in funerary practices in the south-eastern Iberia. For the first time, a megalithic tomb housed a large funerary deposit (28,740 bone fragments) of exclusively cremated human bone remains. For a comprehensive characterization of the funerary ritual, a cutting-edge multi-proxy approach has been undertaken including the osteological study of cremated bone remains, radiocarbon chronology, Fourier-Transform Infrared spectroscopy in Attenuated Total Reflectance mode (FTIR-ATR), and carbon, oxygen and strontium isotope analyses.

We report time-sliced velocity map imaging studies of the methyl (CH) and electronically excited sulfur (S(D)) fragments formed following the photoexcitation of jet-cooled CHSH molecules in the 2A'' ← X̃ A' absorption band (. at wavelengths in the range 190 ≤ ≤ 210 nm). Analyses of images of CH fragments in their = 0, 1 and 2 vibrational levels confirm the perpendicular parent transition dipole moment and prompt bond fission and show that the ground state SH(X) partners are formed with an inverted vibrational population distribution, peaking at = 2 at the shortest excitation wavelengths investigated.
