We report enhanced accuracy in isotope-shift (IS) measurement using sympathetic cooling, demonstrated with Yb+170,172,174,176 transitions at 369 and 935 nm. Considering only type-A uncertainties, sympathetic cooling achieves 30- and 200-fold improvements in IS measurement accuracy at 369 and 935 nm compared with previous single-ion results. Our measurements remain the most accurate to date including type-B uncertainties. King-plot analysis yields model-independent IS factors for these transitions [F369=−12.3(8) GHz/fm2, K369=−1800(1400) GHz u, F935=30.7(2.0) GHz/fm2, and K935=12900(3000) GHz u] and their ratio [F935F369=−2.498(4)] along with K935−K369F935F369=8410(90) GHz u, representing a 17-fold improvement. More reliable nuclear charge radii for Yb170–174,176 are also determined with an accuracy of 0.01 fm2. This paper complements collinear laser spectroscopy, introduces a robust approach for researching unstable isotopes, and supports applications of sympathetic cooling in trapped-ion quantum computers and quantum frequency standards.

Despite the numerous reports on the time-honored superconductor NiBi3, theoretical investigations remain limited, particularly regarding the impact of spin-orbit coupling (SOC). Based on first-principles calculations, the electronic topology of NiBi3 is mainly studied herein. Nodal loops which intersect to form a nodal chain structure are enclosed by two valence bands, and they are fully gapped by SOC. The full gap contains topological surface states defined by a Z2 topological invariant, while for the top valence band and bottom conduction band, a three-dimensional massless Dirac point at Γ is produced by the two bands with SOC. In addition, nodal surfaces which prevalently appear in the band structure without SOC are present on the entire Brillouin zone surface, and SOC only partially gaps them, thus leading to nodal lines unaffected by SOC. Type-I and type-II fermions, which are distinguished by the tilt of cones, are shown to coexist in the bulk bands. Furthermore, two Rashba-split bands are found on the (100) surface, whose inner and outer Fermi circles share the same spin polarization direction. Finally, our analysis reveals that the superconductivity of NiBi3 primarily originates from the p orbitals of Bi and d orbitals of Ni coupling with the vibration modes of Bi. The rich topological features identified in this study suggest that NiBi3 holds significant potential for realizations of topological superconductivity and other exotic phenomena.

Disordered hyperuniform many-particle systems are recently discovered exotic states of matter, characterized by the complete suppression of normalized infinite-wavelength density fluctuations, as in perfect crystals, while lacking conventional long-range order, as in liquids and glasses. In this work, we begin a program to quantify the structural properties of nonhyperuniform and hyperuniform networks. In particular, large two-dimensional (2D) Voronoi networks (graphs) containing approximately 10,000 nodes are created from a variety of different point configurations, including the antihyperuniform hyperplane intersection process (HIP), nonhyperuniform Poisson process, nonhyperuniform random sequential addition (RSA) saturated packing, and both non-stealthy and stealthy hyperuniform point processes. We carry out an extensive study of the Voronoi-cell area distribution of each of the networks by determining multiple metrics that characterize the distribution, including their average areas and corresponding variances as well as higher-order cumulants (i.e., skewness γ1 and excess kurtosis γ2). We show that the HIP distribution is far from Gaussian, as evidenced by a high skewness (γ1=3.16) and large positive excess kurtosis (γ2=16.2). The Poisson (with γ1=1.07 and γ2=1.79) and non-stealthy hyperuniform (with γ1=0.257 and γ2=0.0217) distributions are Gaussian-like distributions, since they exhibit a small but positive skewness and excess kurtosis. The RSA (with γ1=0.450 and γ2=−0.0384) and the highest stealthy hyperuniform distributions (with γ1=0.0272 and γ2=−0.0626) are also non-Gaussian because of their low skewness and negative excess kurtosis, which is diametrically opposite of the non-Gaussian behavior of the HIP. The fact that the cell-area distributions of large, finite-sized RSA and stealthy hyperuniform networks (e.g., with N≈10,000 nodes) are narrower, have larger peaks, and smaller tails than a Gaussian distribution implies that in the thermodynamic limit th

Controlling the layer number of superconducting (SC) units can effectively modulate superconductivity of layered materials. Here, through first-principles calculations, the electronic and SC properties of beryllenes have been systematically investigated. The SC transition temperature Tc shows nonmonotonic behavior, with maximum of 8.5 K for AB-stacking and 6.4 K for ABC-stacking trilayer beryllenes. Notably, these Tc are two orders of magnitude higher than 0.026 K of bulk beryllium attributed to the enhanced electron-phonon coupling from phonon softening of surface Be and the increased density of states at the Fermi level. Additionally, several beryllenes exhibit nontrivial band topology, providing platforms for studying topological superconductivity. Moreover, all the beryllenes show the electride nature due to interstitial anionic electrons. These results highlight the importance of reduced dimensionality on physical properties and offer the first example of a single-element material with trilayer SC units achieving the highest Tc.

Photodissociation cross sections of SiH+ have been explored within the uncoupled theoretical framework, notably in the work of Stancil et al. [Astrophys. J. 486, 574 (1997)]. However, in the SiH+ system, there are significant nonadiabatic interactions between the 31Π and 41Π states, which substantially affect the photodissociation process, particularly in the region between the Lyman α line and the Lyman limit. These nonadiabatic couplings give rise to numerous Feshbach resonances, significantly altering the final photodissociation cross sections. The present study highlights the critical importance of incorporating nonadiabatic electronic couplings to achieve accurate cross-section calculations. The results substantially enrich the data set on small molecular structures and spectra in interstellar clouds, providing essential theoretical support for future experimental investigations and for the modeling and analysis of stellar spectra. Additionally, this work offers key insights into the underlying physical mechanisms by which Feshbach resonances modulate line shapes in coupled photodissociation scattering cross sections.

The influence of parameters such as the strength and frequency of a periodic driving force on the tunneling dynamics is investigated in a symmetric triple-well potential. It is shown that for some special values of the parameters, tunneling could be enhanced considerably or suppressed completely. Quantum fluctuation during the tunneling is discussed as well and the numerical results are presented and analysed by virtue of Floquet formalism.
