A Hermetic, Transparent Soft Growing Vine Robot System for Pipe Inspection
Rehabilitation of aging pipes requires accurate condition assessment and mapping far into the pipe interiors. Soft growing vine robot systems are particularly promising for navigating confined, sinuous paths such as in pipes, but are currently limited by complex subsystems and a lack of validation in real-world industrial settings. In this paper, we introduce the concept and implementation of a hermetic and transparent vine robot system for visual condition assessment and mapping within non-bra…

Non-Hermitian Skin Effect and Electronic Nonlocal Transport
Open quantum systems governed by non-Hermitian effective Hamiltonians exhibit unique phenomena, such as the non-Hermitian skin effect, where eigenstates localize at system boundaries. We investigate this effect in a Rashba nanowire coupled to a ferromagnetic lead and demonstrate that it can be detected via non-local transport spectroscopy: while local conductance remains symmetric, the non-local conductance becomes non-reciprocal. We account for this behavior using both conventional transport a…

Claude Sonnet 4.5 describes the image as: "This image shows a dramatic scene from what appears to be a period television production. The actor is portrayed in elaborate historical costume, featuring long flowing blonde hair and layered garments including a yellowish scarf or neckerchief and a textured, weathered coat or cloak with fur trim. The clothing suggests a rustic or medieval setting, possibly depicting a vagrant, hermit, or someone from a lower social class in a historical drama. The s…

Exceptional-point-induced dynamic sensitivity to particle-number parity
As an exclusive feature of a non-Hermitian system, the existence of exceptional points (EPs) depends not only on the details of the Hamiltonian but also on the particle-number filling and the particle statistics. In this paper, we study many-particle EPs in a Bose Hubbard chain with two end-site resonant imaginary potentials. Starting from a single-particle coalescing eigenstate, we construct $n$-particle condensate eigenstates for the cases with zero and infinite $U$. Compared with the free bo…
