Abstract The universality of free fall, a cornerstone of Einstein’s theory of gravity, has so far only been tested with neutral composite states of first-generation standard model particles, such as atoms, neutrons and antihydrogen. Muonium, the bound state of a positively charged anti-muon and an electron, offers the possibility to probe gravity in the absence of the strong interaction with second-generation standard model particles.

Abstract The transition metal dichalcogenide 6R-TaS2 is a rich quantum platform hosting charge density wave (CDW) order, superconductivity, and an additional temperature scale at T* ≃ 40 K marked by pronounced magnetoresistance and a nonlinear Hall effect (NHE). However, the nature of the superconducting pairing, the origin of the NHE, and their relationship with the CDW remain unclear.

Abstract Encoding information in antiferromagnetic (AFM) domains is a promising solution for the ever growing demand in magnetic storage capacity. The absence of a macroscopic magnetization avoids crosstalk between different domain states, enabling ultrahigh density spintronics1 while being detrimental to the domain detection and manipulation. Disentangling these merits and disadvantages seemed so far unattainable.
