Thermally driven transitions between ferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases are characterized by critical behavior with divergent susceptibilities, long-range correlations, and spin dynamics that can span kHz to GHz scales as the material approaches the critical temperature , but it has proven technically challenging to probe the relevant length and time scales with most conventional measurement techniques. In this study, we employ scanning nitrogen-vacancy center based magnetometry and relaxometry to reveal the critical behavior of a high- ferromagnetic oxide near its Curie temperature. Cluster analysis of the measured temperature-dependent nanoscale magnetic textures points to a 3D universality class with a correlation length that diverges near .

The coupling of matter to the quantized electromagnetic field of a plasmonic or optical cavity can be harnessed to modify and control chemical and physical properties of molecules. In optical cavities, a term known as the dipole self-energy (DSE) appears in the Hamiltonian to ensure gauge invariance. The aim of this work is twofold.

Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) represent one of the cornerstones of treatment for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Post-hoc data from the TOPCAT trial, conducted in patients with heart failure mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction (HFmrEF/HFpEF), suggest the possible clinical benefit of MRAs, particularly for slightly reduced ejection fraction values. The advent of non-steroidal MRAs, including finerenone, seems to represent a turning point in the treatment for HFmrEF/HFpEF.

Article Synopsis
  • The S=1/2 triangular lattice antiferromagnet (TLAF) model showcases complex quantum magnetic behavior influenced by exchange anisotropy, specifically in BaLaCoTeO (BLCTO), which shows 120° magnetic order below 3.26K.
  • Using inelastic neutron scattering (INS) and advanced calculations, the study identified strong easy-plane XXZ anisotropy and observed a significant energy continuum in spin excitations that indicates a confinement length much larger than the lattice spacing.
  • The findings suggest a connection between the excitation spectrum's unique characteristics and higher-order van Hove singularities, providing valuable insights into anisotropic magnetic systems.
