Two PRX Editorial Board members, Liuyan Zhao and Xavier Marie, talk about why PRX is positively welcoming to the field of 2D materials research.

A new technique for measuring the magnetic properties of metals within cells provides a powerful tool for studying how metal accumulation in cells leads to certain diseases.

The first comprehensive theoretical study of the finite magnetic field phase diagram of twisted bilayer graphene provides an in-depth tool kit for analyzing experimental data on Chern insulating states.

Measuring certain quantum states with short-range entanglement can give rise to long-range entanglement, an insight with direct practical significance for preparing exotic many-body states in quantum devices.

Applying the physics of spin glasses to a multiplayer economic game shows that agents never reach collectively optimal strategies even when they learn from past outcomes.

An experiment puts limits on how much quantum vacuum fluctuations can alter the quantized Hall resistance in a 2D electron gas under a magnetic field.

APS has selected 156 Outstanding Referees for 2024 who have demonstrated exceptional work in the assessment of manuscripts published in the Physical Review journals. A full list of the Outstanding Referees is available online.

PRX presents a collection of papers dedicated to ultrafast generation, control, and imaging of electronic dynamics in molecules and in solids—a fortuitously timed tribute to the 2023 Nobel-Prize-winning attosecond technology.

Introducing PRX’s second Perspective, Igor Mazin, PRX’s Editorial Board member, and the editors offer their take on why altermagnetism is needed to describe a new class of magnetism.
