Spin Thermal Hall Conductivity of a Kagome Antiferromagnet.

A clear thermal Hall signal (κ_{xy}) was observed in the spin-liquid phase of the S=1/2 kagome antiferromagnet Ca kapellasite [CaCu_{3}(OH)_{6}Cl_{2}·0.6H_{2}O]. We found that κ_{xy} is well reproduced, both qualitatively and quantitatively, using the Schwinger-boson mean-field theory with the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction of D/J∼0.

Majorana quantization and half-integer thermal quantum Hall effect in a Kitaev spin liquid.

The quantum Hall effect in two-dimensional electron gases involves the flow of topologically protected dissipationless charge currents along the edges of a sample. Integer or fractional electrical conductance is associated with edge currents of electrons or quasiparticles with fractional charges, respectively. It has been predicted that quantum Hall phenomena can also be created by edge currents with a fundamentally different origin: the fractionalization of quantum spins.

Unusual Thermal Hall Effect in a Kitaev Spin Liquid Candidate α-RuCl_{3}.

The Kitaev quantum spin liquid displays the fractionalization of quantum spins into Majorana fermions. The emergent Majorana edge current is predicted to manifest itself in the form of a finite thermal Hall effect, a feature commonly discussed in topological superconductors. Here we report on thermal Hall conductivity κ_{xy} measurements in α-RuCl_{3}, a candidate Kitaev magnet with the two-dimensional honeycomb lattice.

Trajectory of Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate Predicts Renal Injury in Children with Multicystic Dysplastic Kidney.

Background/aims: Children with a solitary functioning kidney have a risk of renal injury caused by hyperfiltration. Timely intervention with renin-angiotensin inhibitors may be beneficial. We examined whether trajectory of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) would predict renal injury, defined as microalbuminuria/proteinuria, hypertension, and/or a decline in eGFR.

Anomalous Change in the de Haas-van Alphen Oscillations of CeCoIn_{5} at Ultralow Temperatures.

We perform de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) measurements of the heavy-fermion superconductor CeCoIn_{5} down to 2 mK above the upper critical field. We find that the dHvA amplitudes show an anomalous suppression, concomitantly with a shift of the dHvA frequency, below the transition temperature T_{n}=20  mK. We suggest that the change is owing to magnetic breakdown caused by a field-induced antiferromagnetic (AFM) state emerging below T_{n}, revealing the origin of the field-induced quantum critical point (QCP) in CeCoIn_{5}.
