Counterintuitive temperature dependence of isospin flavor polarization has recently been found in twisted bilayer graphene, where unpolarized electrons in a Fermi liquid become a spin-valley polarized insulator upon heating. So far, the effect has been limited to v = +/-1 (one electron/hole per superlattice cell), leaving open questions such as whether it is a general property of symmetry-breaking electronic phases. Here, by studying a rhombohedral trilayer graphene/boron nitride moiré superlattice, we report that at v = -3 a resistive peak emerges at elevated temperatures or in parallel magnetic fields.

The known I^{π}=8_{1}^{+}, E_{x}=2129-keV isomer in the semimagic nucleus ^{130}Cd_{82} was populated in the projectile fission of a ^{238}U beam at the Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory at RIKEN. The high counting statistics of the accumulated data allowed us to determine the excitation energy, E_{x}=2001.2(7) keV, and half-life, T_{1/2}=57(3) ns, of the I^{π}=6_{1}^{+} state based on γγ coincidence information.

We report a lattice QCD study of the heavy-light meson-meson interactions with an explicitly exotic flavor content bcu[over ¯]d[over ¯], isospin I=0, and axial-vector J^{P}=1^{+} quantum numbers in search of possible tetraquark bound states. The calculation is performed at four values of lattice spacing, ranging from ∼0.058 to ∼0.

We present the first determination of the energy dependence of the B-D[over ¯] and B^{*}-D[over ¯] isospin-0, S-wave scattering amplitudes both below and above the thresholds using lattice QCD, which allows us to investigate rigorously whether mixed bottom-charm b[over ¯]c[over ¯]ud tetraquarks exist as bound states or resonances. The scattering phase shifts are obtained using Lüscher's method from the energy spectra in two different volumes. To ensure that no relevant energy level is missed, we use large, symmetric 7×7 and 8×8 correlation matrices that include, at both source and sink, B^{(*)}-D[over ¯] scattering operators with the lowest three or four possible back-to-back momenta in addition to local b[over ¯]c[over ¯]ud operators.
