Walter Lübcke (CDU) wurde ermordet, weil er sich klar gegen Nazis stellte, und er ist nicht der einzige Antifaschist in der Union.
Aber daß Union es nicht schafft, sich klar zu positionieren: „wir sind Antifaschisten!“¹ und das auch zu meinen, weil sich Teile ihrer Anhängerschaft dadurch brüskiert fühlen könnte, weil sie sich in der Assoziation mit linken Punks weit unwohler fühlen als mit rechtsaußen-stramm­nationalen Burschen­schaftlern², weil sie sich Franz von Papen näher fühlen al…

Giant Magneto-Optical Effects in Two-Dimensional Flat-Band Antiferromagnets
In this work, we reveal giant magneto-optical responses in two-dimensional(2D) antiferromagnets with nearly flat electronic bands, based on first-principles calculations and group-theoretical analysis. We identify a record-large second-order magneto-optical Schafer-Hubert(SH) effect, featuring a polarization rotation angle of 28 degree, in monolayer antiferromagnetic RuOCl2, driven by flatband-enhanced interband optical transitions. Both the valence and conduction bands exhibit pronounced direc…

AbRank: A Benchmark Dataset and Metric-Learning Framework for Antibody-Antigen Affinity Ranking
Accurate prediction of antibody-antigen (Ab-Ag) binding affinity is essential for therapeutic design and vaccine development, yet the performance of current models is limited by noisy experimental labels, heterogeneous assay conditions, and poor generalization across the vast antibody and antigen sequence space. We introduce AbRank, a large-scale benchmark and evaluation framework that reframes affinity prediction as a pairwise ranking problem. AbRank aggregates over 380,000 binding assays from…

Supercurrent-induced antiferromagnetic order and spin-triplet pair generation in quantum critical d-wave superconductors
A supercurrent is well recognized as being of prime importance within mean-field theory, but remains largely unexplored in strongly correlated electron systems (SCES) and the quantum critical region. To clarify the impact of the supercurrent on magnetism and superconductivity near an antiferromagnetic quantum critical point, we study the two-dimensional Hubbard model based on a fluctuation exchange approximation for a current-carrying superconducting state. We show a supercurrent-induced antife…

Discovery of magnon self-interaction in a strongly driven antiferromagnet
Nonlinear dynamics govern a wide array of natural phenomena and are essential for understanding nonequilibrium behaviors in condensed matter systems. In magnetically ordered materials, magnons - the quanta of spin waves - exhibit intrinsic nonlinearities that are of great interest in fundamental research and practical applications. Despite progress in the nonlinear control of magnon modes in antiferromagnetic materials, the transition from perturbative to non-perturbative regimes of magnon cohe…
