Simultaneous two‐mode Raman thermometry reveals strong in‐plane anisotropic thermal conductivity and thermal expansion coefficients in low‐symmetry few‐layer ReS2. By decoupling thermal transport along the crystallographic a‐ and b‐axes within a single optical configuration, this study provides robust experimental evidence and ab initio theoretical ...

Colossal Magnetic‐Field‐Induced Anomalous Hall Conductivity in a Kagome Antiferromagnet YMn6Sn6
Magnetic‐field‐driven spin canting in the kagome antiferromagnet YMn6Sn6${\rm YMn}_6{\rm Sn}_6$ reshapes flat and Dirac bands near the Fermi level, redistributing Berry curvature and producing colossal anomalous Hall conductivity. The study reveals how magnetic configuration and clean‐limit skew scattering cooperate to amplify Hall transport, offering ...

Sr1−xBaxCo2V2O8 is established as a magnetic‐ion‐based proper displacive ferroelectric whose transition is continuously suppressed by Ba substitution to a ferroelectric quantum critical point. In the resulting quantum paraelectric regime, a transverse magnetic field induces magnetic quantum criticality, realizing multiferroic quantum criticality and ...

Apart from (transition) metal (oxo)halides only few hosts stabilize chalcogenide cations in purely oxoanionic coordination environment. Herein, we report on five borosulfates containing the Se42+ ion and characterize the compounds using X‐ray diffraction, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, density functional theory (DFT) calculations along with magnetic

Debussy’s Old Hindu Chant (La Boîte à joujoux): Exotic Humorous Fakery and Rejuvenation of Music
Debussy’s ballet for children La Boîte à joujoux (1913) contains a fake “Old Hindu chant”. But the comic fakery seems to provide the key to understanding the deep meaning of the ballet, in which Debussy strives to rejuvenate and revitalize Western music ...
