Intertwining quantum order and non-trivial topology is at the frontier of condensed matter
physics 1 , 2 , 3 – 4 . A charge-density-wave-like order with orbital currents has been proposed …

Magnetism in two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) materials has recently emerged
as one of the most promising areas in condensed matter research, with many exciting …

The quantum-level interplay between geometry, topology and correlation is at the forefront
of fundamental physics 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 – 15 . Kagome …

Lattice geometry, topological electron behaviour and the competition between different
possible ground states all play a role in determining the properties of materials with a kagome …

A kagome lattice naturally features Dirac fermions, flat bands and van Hove singularities in
its electronic structure. The Dirac fermions encode topology, flat bands favour correlated …

Background Gut microbiota has been suggested to play a role in almost all major diseases
including cardio‐ and cerebrovascular diseases. A possible mechanism is the transformation …

Dysbiosis, departure of the gut microbiome from a healthy state, has been suggested to be a
powerful biomarker of disease incidence and progression 1 , 2 – 3 . Diagnostic applications …

The understanding of crowd behaviour in semi-confined spaces is an important part of the
design of new pedestrian facilities, for major layout modifications to existing areas and for the …

BACKGROUND The liver is frequently subject to insult because of viral infection, alcohol
abuse, or toxic chemical exposure. Extensive research has been conducted to identify blood …

Electronic systems with flat bands are predicted to be a fertile ground for hosting emergent
phenomena including unconventional magnetism and superconductivity 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , …
