Role of the Setae in an Ectoparasitic Seal Louse in Reducing Surface Drag: Numerical Modeling Approach

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
The seal louse Echinophthirius horridus has uniquely shaped setae that may reduce drag during its host's dives. Using numerical simulations, this study demonstrates that their natural inclination promotes vortex formation, minimizing friction and energy loss. These findings provide insights into biological surface adaptations and may inspire the design

Energy Symmetry Breaking of Dirac and Weyl Fermions in Magnetized Spinning Conical Geometries

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
Exact solutions for relativistic fermions in magnetized, spinning conical geometries reveal defect‐induced symmetry breaking between fermion and antifermion energies. Energy levels depend on the magnetic field, background geometry, and fractionalized spin. When the defect's spin dominates, quantum effects diminish.

Continuum Percolation in Anisotropic Rectangles: The Role of Excluded Area and Average Connectivity at the Threshold

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
This work presents a combined analytical–computational approach to quantify the influence of aspect ratio and anisotropic orientation on the percolation behavior of penetrable rectangles. The proposed model reliably predicts the geometric percolation threshold and electrical conductivity of 2D networks, with power‐law fits showing strong agreement with

Substrate‐Restricted Asymmetric Evolution of Solid‐State Nanopores

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
Standalone nanopores can either expand or shrink based on the nucleation mechanism. A substrate‐restricted asymmetric pore dynamics are uncovered ‐ top expansion and bottom shrinkage, with minimum aperture reduced and forming a conical geometry, driven by molecular migration along an energy potential gradient within nanopores.

Observation of Localized Resonant Phonon Polaritons in Biaxial α‐MoO3 Nanoparticles

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Biaxial α‐MoO3 nanoparticles exhibit tunable, high‐Q mid‐infrared resonances driven by localized phonon polaritons. Combining a novel synthesis method, hyperspectral near‐field imaging and a unified theoretical analysis, this work reveals eigenmodes and resonance conditions in biaxial particles.

Thermal Control of Vortex Motion in Nanoscale Superconductors

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Vortices in superconducting film can be thermally steered by a local heating from a tip. The work shows that the vortex is attracted by the hot spot by a force that emulates an electric field resulting in a fictious Lorentz‐force on the vortex. Abstract Thermally induced motion of vortices in nanoscale superconductors (SCs) is investigated.

Dispersion of First Sound in a Weakly Interacting Ultracold Fermi Liquid

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, EarlyView.
 The weak‐interaction, low‐temperature region of the phase diagram of a Fermi gas the so‐called Fermi liquid regime, which has been somewhat overlooked in ultracold gases‐is investigated. Precise and measurable predictions are presented for the viscosity and dispersion of first sound to leading order in the scattering length.
