Summary: We investigated different entanglement properties of a holographic QCD (hQCD) model with a critical end point at the finite baryon density. It was determined that the holographic entanglement entropy (HEE) can reflect QCD phase transition, while mutual information (MI), conditional mutual information (CMI), and entanglement of purification (Ep) exhibit different behaviors in different stages, aiding in distinguishing between different phases of strongly coupled matter.

Summary: This article presents a holographic point source (HPS) developed for digital lensless holographic microscopy (HPS-DLHM). The HPS is an off-axis phase transmission hologram recorded on a photopolymer holographic film. The HPS-DLHM technique offers superior mechanical stability, wider illumination cones, and shorter reconstruction distances compared to conventional pinhole-based DLHM. This technique shows potential for applications in biomedical and telemedicine fields.

Summary: We studied the time evolution of Wilson loop in a strongly coupled field theory with a critical point at finite temperature and nonzero chemical potential. We found that by increasing the interquark distance, the dynamical critical exponent increases smoothly. Additionally, for fast quenches and small values of interquark distances, the gauge invariant Wilson loop is a good non-local observable to probe the critical point.

Summary: Observations restrict the parameter space of holographic dark energy (HDE) and lead to a turning point in the Hubble parameter. The turning point violates the null energy condition and may be interpreted as an evolution of the Hubble constant with redshift, contradicting the FLRW framework within which data has been analyzed. Comparison of fits disfavors HDE relative to flat Lambda CDM model.

Summary: A cost-effective and reusable holographic glucose sensor is developed for point-of-care (POC) diagnosis by utilizing boronic acid functionalized hydrogels and UV-induced dual-photopolymerization. Computational modeling and parameter optimization are conducted to improve sensor response time, sensitivity, and reusability. The selective and reversible monitoring of urine samples in a physiological glucose concentration range demonstrates the potential for diabetic risk identification. The integration of glucose sensors into a reusable urinary analysis prototype shows promise in reducing the need for invasive monitoring procedures for diabetic patients.

Summary: In this paper, we study the nearly critical behaviour of holographic superfluids at finite temperature and chemical potential in their probe limit. By using analytic techniques in the bulk, we derive an effective theory for the long wavelength limit of the gapless and pseudo-gapped modes, and compute the complex dissipative kinetic transport coefficient in terms of thermodynamics and black hole horizon data. We analyze the corresponding modes and argue that the dispersion relations are discontinuous between the normal and the broken phase at finite density. We compare and contrast our results with earlier numerical work.

Summary: This article investigates the thermoelectric measurements of the triangular-lattice organic conductor & kappa;-(BEDT-TTF)(4)Hg-2.89Br-8 and discovers a quantum critical phase associated with BEC-like superconductivity under pressure. The study reveals the connection between the quantum criticality in doped spin liquid and unconventional BEC-like superconductivity.

Summary: We studied the Adiabatic loss in cooling a many-body quantum system towards a quantum critical point. The excitation density that represents the degree of adiabaticity follows scaling laws with cooling velocity, initial, and final temperatures. These scaling laws are universal and depend on the critical exponents of the quantum phase transition. We analytically showed the validity of these statements for a Kitaev quantum wire coupled to Markovian baths and argued their general applicability.

Summary: In this article, we prove the universal properties of charge transport in holographic nonminimal extensions of four-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory with exact electromagnetic duality invariance. We show that the conductivity is a universal frequency-independent constant at zero momentum and derive analytical expressions for non-zero momentum conductivities in any holographic duality-invariant theory in the limit of large frequencies and small frequencies and momenta. We also demonstrate that the conductivities in a general relativity neutral black-hole background are independent of the choice of duality-invariant theory and the contributions from nonminimal couplings of the gauge field to gravity are subleading.

Summary: This study investigates the physical characteristics of the 4K superconductor LaCoSi using first-principles density functional theory. It is found that LaCoSi exhibits a ferromagnetic ground state, which contradicts experimental results. Based on calculations, it is suggested that the superconductivity observed in LaCoSi is closely related to a ferromagnetic quantum critical point.

Summary: We propose an exactly solvable lattice model to study the deconfined quantum critical point (DQCP) in (1+1) dimensions, which occurs at the edge of a (2+1) dimensional bosonic symmetry protected topological (SPT) phase with 7L2 x 7L2 symmetry. The DQCP describes a transition between two gapped edges that break different 7L2 subgroups of the full 7L2 x 7L2 symmetry. This model provides an exact mapping between the SPT edge theory and a 7L4 spin chain, revealing the close relationship between DQCPs in this system and ordinary 7L4 symmetry breaking critical points.

Summary: The origin of the partial suppression of the electronic density states in the pseudogap behavior in high-Tc superconductivity has been controversial. This study investigates the quasiparticle scattering spectroscopy of the quantum critical superconductor CeCoIn5 and reveals the presence of a pseudogap with energy Ag. The results suggest that the pseudogap in CeCoIn5 is controlled by Kondo hybridization instead of being involved in the formation of superconducting Cooper pairs.

Summary: Engineering plays a critical role in the development of medical devices, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. The RADx initiative by the National Institutes of Health contributed to a significant increase in the United States' testing capacity through the evaluation of over 30 technologies. The lessons learned from this review can serve as a blueprint for engineers to rapidly and effectively respond to future global health crises.
