Summary: A fractionalized excitation is observed in quantum spin liquids, providing a way to observe the quantum spin liquid state. The thermal Hall conductivity in alpha-RuCl3 exhibits approximately half-integer quantization, especially in a plateau-like parameter regime for high magnetic fields and low temperatures. Cooling to low temperatures suppresses the thermal Hall conductivity.

Summary: In this paper, a memristive Hopfield neural network (MHNN) is proposed, which is implemented by adding a suitable memristor to the Hopfield neural network (HNN). A new pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) based on MHNN is also developed. The experiments show the randomness and high performance of the PRNG. Additionally, an image encryption system based on PRNG is proposed and implemented on FPGA.

Summary: This paper discusses the complex dynamics of the Kopel model with nonsymmetric response. The research shows that the fixed point of the nonsymmetric model may undergo various bifurcations under specific parameter combinations. The research also reveals that the effects from rivals can lead to more complex dynamics compared to self-adjustment.

Summary: Burning plasma state has been achieved at the US National Ignition Facility using indirect-drive inertial-confinement fusion. More efficient hohlraums and improved symmetry control have allowed for effective heating by alpha particles from fuel fusion reactions. This is significant for the progress of inertial-confinement fusion.

Summary: This study proposes a nonlocal real reverse-spacetime integrable hierarchies of PT symmetric matrix AKNS equations, achieved through nonlocal symmetry reductions on the potential matrix, to determine generalized Jost solutions. By applying the Sokhotski-Plemelj formula, the associated Riemann-Hilbert problems are transformed into integral equations of Gelfand-Levitan-Marchenko type. The Riemann-Hilbert problems corresponding to the reflectionless case are explicitly solved, presenting soliton solutions for the resulting nonlocal real reverse-spacetime integrable PT-symmetric matrix AKNS equations.

Summary: The past decades have seen significant advancements in hadron physics, particularly in the observation of excited open heavy flavor mesons and baryons since 2017. This review provides updated information on the recent experimental and theoretical developments in this field, including the observation of unconventional heavy hadrons, tetraquark states, and hidden heavy flavor multiquark states. Additionally, the review covers progress in understanding glueballs and light hybrid mesons, which are manifestations of the non-Abelian SU(3) gauge interaction in Quantum Chromodynamics at low energies.

Summary: The combined impacts of bio-convection and magnetic field on boundary layer magnetohydrodynamic unsteady Sakiadis and Blasius flow of nanofluid with accretion/ablation of the leading-edge are investigated. The study reveals that the growing strength of the magnetic field reduces the velocity of the boundary layers in both the Sakiadis and Blasius flows. It is also observed that the concentration profile directly decreases in response to the Lewis number, bioconvective Peclet number, and the chemical reaction. The temperature of the fluid rises proportionally with the increasing values of each of the radiative parameter (Rd), Biot number (Bi), and thermophoretic parameter (Nt).
