Thermalization and hydrodynamic long-time tails in a Floquet system

Anne Matthies, Nicolas Dannenfeld, Silvia Pappalardi, and Achim Rosch

Phys. Rev. B 113, 024305 (2026) - Published 12 January, 2026

Here, the authors develop a comprehensive hydrodynamic description of late-time relaxation in interacting Floquet spin systems after a quantum quench. Exploiting symmetries in a clean Floquet setting, they analytically predict hydrodynamic long-time tails and verify them with extensive numerical simulations, filling a gap left by previous studies. While establishing a concrete quantum–classical correspondence at late times, an unexpectedly slow decay of spin-current fluctuations raises open questions about its origin.

Emergent curved space and gravitational lensing in quantum materials

Yugo Onishi, Nisarga Paul, and Liang Fu

Phys. Rev. B 113, 024401 (2026) - Published 5 January, 2026

Nontrivial spin textures can give rise to emergent fields on electrons moving on the textures, such as emergent electromagnetic field. Here, the authors show that nonadiabatic corrections lead to an emergent gravitational field. Electrons strongly coupled to these textures behave as a spinless particle in curved space, whose curvature results in the electron lensing effect, an analog of the gravitational lensing. The picture of emergent curved space allows us to explore novel “gravitational” phenomena in condensed matter systems.

Spectroscopy and complex-time correlations using minimally entangled typical thermal states

Zhenjiu Wang, Paul McClarty, Dobromila Dankova, Andreas Honecker, and Alexander Wietek

Phys. Rev. B 113, 024406 (2026) - Published 5 January, 2026

Dynamics of quantum matter at nonzero temperature is the central link between microscopic models and spectroscopy or transport measurements in actual materials. The authors introduce here a tensor network technique to efficiently simulate time-dependent response functions using minimally entangled typical thermal states. Complex-time correlation functions are shown to solve the issue of unbounded entanglement growth. Two variants, an analytic and a Hermitian time correlator, are used to solve the outstanding problem of the anomalous thermal broadening in SrCu $_{2}$ (BO $_{3}$ ) $_{2}$ .

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Large enhancement in anomalous Nernst effect of the iron-based binary ferromagnet $F e_{3} Ga$ through trace doping of the rare-earth element Ho

Xinzhe Hu, Minghang Li, Yuanchen Shen, Yuying Liu, Botao Jiang, Jiacheng Huang, Changmin Xiong, Jirong Sun, Tongyun Zhao, Dingnan Liu, Lichen Wang, Haipeng Wang, Fengxia Hu, Hongming Weng, Zian Li, Quansheng Wu, Yunzhong Chen, and Baogen Shen

Phys. Rev. B 113, 024408 (2026) - Published 6 January, 2026

The authors demonstrates here that trace doping of rare-earth elements leads to a significant enhancement (over 44%) of the anomalous Nernst effect (ANE) in melt-spun Fe $_{3}$ Ga. DFT calculations show that the structural modification, particularly the Ga deficiency in the $D 0_{3}$ phase, shift the Fermi level to a larger Berry curvature distribution in the proximity of the Fermi surface and thus a higher transverse thermoelectric conductivity. The trace doping of a rare-earth element provides a new approach to further enhance the giant ANE in magnetic topological materials.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Altermagnetism without crystal symmetry

Peru d'Ornellas, Valentin Leeb, Adolfo G. Grushin, and Johannes Knolle

Phys. Rev. B 113, 024426 (2026) - Published 22 January, 2026

The authors show here that altermagnetism, generally considered in a crystalline context, can emerge in materials with no crystal symmetries. Here, the altermagnetic point-group symmetry is enforced at the orbital degrees of freedom at each site, rather than at the level of the lattice. A minimal model is constructed where this state emerges from spontaneous symmetry breaking, and experimental signatures are calculated, showing how the state may be experimentally detected. The mechanism generalizes to any lattice geometry and any altermagnetic order.

Absence of magnetic order in epitaxial ${RuO}_{2}$ revealed by x-ray linear dichroism

Siyu Wang, Chao Wang, Yanan Yuan, Jiangxiao Li, Fangfang Pei, Daxiang Liu, Chunyu Qin, Jiefeng Cao, Yamei Wang, Tianye Wang, Jiayu Liu, Ji-Eun Lee, Guanhua Zhang, Christoph Klewe, Chenchao Yu, Fan Zhang, Dongsheng Song, Kai Chen, Weisheng Zhao, Dawei Shen, Ziqiang Qiu, Mengmeng Yang, Bin Hong, and Qian Li

Phys. Rev. B 113, 024439 (2026) - Published 30 January, 2026

Ruthenium dioxide (RuO $_{2}$ ), a top altermagnetic candidate, has undergone some dispute regarding the existence of magnetic order. Here, the authors directly probe its magnetic state using x-ray linear dichroism (XLD) measurements on high-quality epitaxial thin films. By comparing data across temperatures, field-cooling, and crystalline orientations, they found no evidence of intrinsic magnetic ordering. As XLD signals can originate from both magnetic and crystal field contributions, the authors emphasize the critical need to disentangle genuine magnetism from nonmagnetic effects in complex materials.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Doping-dependent Fe phonon dynamics in ${LaFeAsO}_{1 - x} H_{x}$ studied by ${}^{57}{Fe}$ nuclear resonant inelastic scattering

Shiro Kawachi, Haruhiro Hiraka, Jun-ichi Yamaura, Soshi Iimura, Hiroki Nakamura, Satoshi Tsutsui, Yoshitaka Yoda, Masahiko Machida, Hideo Hosono, and Hisao Kobayashi

Phys. Rev. B 113, 024519 (2026) - Published 30 January, 2026

Here, the authors use $^{57}$ Fe nuclear resonant inelastic scattering to extract the Fe partial phonon density of states in LaFeAsO $_{1 - x}$ H $_{x}$ at $x$ =0.35 (superconducting ground state) and $x$ =0.51 (antiferromagnetic ground state). Comparison with first-principles calculations identifies nanosecond-scale in-plane electronic inequivalence at $x$ =0.51, consistent with electronic nematicity. This element-selective dynamical indicator goes beyond probes sensitive only to average structural symmetry, providing new constraints on how local symmetry breaking relates to magnetism in the $x$ ~0.5 regime near the second superconducting dome.

LETTER

Delocalization induced by enhanced hyperuniformity in one-dimensional disordered systems

Junmo Jeon, Harukuni Ikeda, and Shiro Sakai

Phys. Rev. B 113, L020201 (2026) - Published 15 January, 2026

Here, the authors show that the conventional belief that any disorder localizes all states in one dimension breaks down when long-wavelength fluctuations in the potential are suppressed, a property known as hyperuniformity. In tight-binding chains, strongly hyperuniform disorder interpolates between random and periodic potentials, inducing a sharp delocalization transition and the emergence of mobility edges. This shows that reducing large-scale irregularities alone is sufficient to control localization and transport in low-dimensional systems.

Spin-ferroelasticity coupling in nonrelativistic spin-split antiferromagnetic-ferroelastic systems

Fenfen Huang, Shenda He, Ke-Qiu Chen, and Li-Ming Tang

Phys. Rev. B 113, L020411 (2026) - Published 16 January, 2026

Traditional classifications of ferroelastic species cannot distinguish a special ferroelastic species in which the [C $_{2}$ ||A] symmetry-related orientation states show a spin-flipping feature in the energy bands. By extending the ferroelastic classification scheme to nonrelativistic magnetic systems, this work introduces a spin point group based classification framework that captures ferroelastic species with spin-ferroelastic coupling. In this framework, clear symmetry criteria and all such kinds of ferroelastic species are provided. These results establish a theoretical framework that will guide our understanding and identification of systems with spin-ferroelastic coupling.

Nonreciprocal zone boundary magnon propagation in ${Cu}_{2} {OSeO}_{3}$

T. Weber, N. Heinsdorf, M. Stekiel, P. Steffens, A. P. Schnyder, and C. Pfleiderer

Phys. Rev. B 113, L020414 (2026) - Published 29 January, 2026

Here, the authors employ inelastic neutron scattering to show that the magnon spectrum of the chiral magnet Cu $_{2}$ OSeO $_{3}$ features a strong directional dichroism at the boundary of the nuclear Brillouin zone. The affected magnon modes show virtually no damping and can be influenced using a magnetic field, making them of great interest for research on high-frequency unidirectional magnonic applications such as switchable spin-wave diodes.
