Summary: In this study, the behavior of a self-propelling particle in a viscoelastic fluid under the influence of a magnetic field is examined. It is found that the system's classical orbital magnetism is dependent on the presence of inertia, and the system can transition between diamagnetic and paramagnetic states by adjusting the timescales of active fluctuations and viscoelastic dissipation. Additionally, the magnetic moment of the system, which disappears at equilibrium, exhibits nonmonotonic behavior with increasing persistence of self-propulsion.

Summary: In this study, the physical properties of III-V semiconductor MX in its 2D limit were investigated using first-principles calculations. It was found that these 2D materials exhibit significantly different electronic and magnetic properties compared to their bulk counterparts. The exotic properties of these 2D materials may have great potential for applications in novel electronic and spintronic devices.

Summary: This work demonstrates the unique properties of III-V semiconductor MX in the two-dimensional limit, including the double layer honeycomb structure, distorted tetrahedral coordination, and different electronic and magnetic properties compared to the bulk state. These DLHCs exhibit itinerant magnetism and 100% spin-polarization under hole doping, with InSb DLHC showing inverted band structure and nontrivial topological properties.

Summary: This study investigates the magnetic properties of Mo-doped BaSnO3 from experiments to density functional theory (DFT) calculations, revealing weaker ferromagnetism in samples with oxygen vacancies. The study confirms that the contribution of orbital electron states and defects that were ignored in traditional explanations should be considered in solving the elusive magnetism in diluted magnetic oxides.

Summary: Moire superlattices have become a platform for studying correlated physics and superconductivity with unprecedented tunability. This study on magic-angle twisted trilayer graphene reveals a better tunability of electronic structure and superconducting properties than magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene, with implications for the understanding of strongly coupled superconductivity. The results suggest that the system can be electrically tuned close to the crossover to a two-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate, indicating the potential for revolutionizing applications of superconductivity.

Summary: This study successfully resolves the magnetism of individual orbitals in Gd and Ho single atoms by combining X-ray magnetic circular dichroism, multiplet calculations, and density functional theory. Contrary to previous assumptions, a charge transfer mechanism leading to an unconventional singly ionized configuration was identified. This work highlights the role of valence electrons in determining the quantum level structure and spin-dependent transport properties of lanthanide-based nanomagnets.

Summary: We demonstrate the computation of orbital magnetization within the PAW formalism of density functional theory for systems with periodic boundary conditions. Magnetic translation symmetry and a perturbative treatment of the density operator are utilized to accurately account for all PAW terms. The implementation of our expressions, which can be used to compute wave-function derivatives using density functional perturbation theory, has been tested and verified for both atoms and solids.

Summary: This study demonstrates a highly anisotropic ferromagnetism in twisted bilayer graphene, which is associated with a Chern insulating state. The anisotropy is likely orbital in nature rather than spin-induced, and a transition to a new phase may occur when an in-plane magnetic field exceeds 5 T.

Summary: This study provides a detailed analysis of the electron spectrum, persistent currents, and their densities for an annulus placed in a constant magnetic field. The evolution of persistent currents in different geometries is studied, along with the confirmation of analytical results through current density integration and the ByersYang formula. The research is valuable for accurate treatment and interpretation of experimental data in various doubly connected systems.

Summary: Micromagnetic tomography is a technique that combines X-ray micro computed tomography and scanning magnetometry data to obtain information about the magnetic potential of individual grains embedded in a sample. It has the capability to uniquely determine the magnetic potential of individual particles by numerical inversion of surface magnetic measurements. This technique is important for studying the ancient geomagnetic field and identifying stable paleomagnetic recorders in natural samples.

Summary: Graphene can be transformed into a semimetal by adding a valley-dependent pseudoscalar potential that shifts the energy of Dirac point. A bilayer structure, composed of two time-reversed copies of modified Haldane model, can give rise to nodal lines in each valley. AB stacking results in a chiral insulator with a Chern number of +/- 2, while AA stacking does not exhibit nontrivial topological phases. Possible experimental implementations are discussed.

Summary: This article investigates the robustness of Aharonov-Bohm cages for quantum walks on certain tilings to various perturbations. It is found that quenched disorder typically breaks the cages and leads to exponential decay of the wave function, while dynamical disorder or repeated measurements destroy phase coherence and convert quantum walks into classical random walks with diffusion behavior. The combination of static and dynamical disorder results in subdiffusion with an anomalous exponent controlled by the quenched disorder distribution. Introducing interaction to a second walker can break the cages and restore ballistic motion.

Summary: The topological invariants of one-dimensional inversion-symmetric insulators crucially depend on orbital embedding, with the position of orbitals within a unit cell playing a key role in determining the Z2 topological invariant θ. This study highlights how different orbital embedding configurations can lead to distinct topological phases in band insulators.

Summary: The study investigates two interacting particles hopping on a chain, where a strong interaction leads to a molecular bound state and weak disorder causes the molecular state to become Anderson-localized. Consequently, at stronger disorder, part of the molecular band dissociates due to hybridization with the atomic band. Different regimes are characterized by computing various parameters including the density of states, inverse participation ratio, level-spacing statistics, and survival probability of an initially localized state. The atomic band behaves like a rough billiard for a single particle on a square lattice, showing signatures of quantum chaos, and distinct states localized along one direction are observed, known as separatrix states.
