This paper proposes an auditable effective scaling law for condensed-matter physics within AQM: macroscopic condensation coherence in a material is not de termined solely by the pairing scale, but by the product of a basic pairing tem perature scale and the AQM coherence protection factor. The factor is ΠAQM = C 2.18(Eeff/E0) 1/2 (1 − δ), where C is topological-orbital coherence, Eeff is effectiv…

The Sovereign CMEC-96(PATENT PENDING): A Continuous Magnetic Energy Converter and Zero-Emission, Utility-Scale Baseload Power Refinery The present invention relates generally to advanced, zero-emission power generation and thermodynamic energy recovery systems. More specifically, it relates to a continuous magnetic energy converter engineered to serve as a direct, decentralized replacement for tr…

Three independently discovered collapse phenomena — in monadic model theory, categorical semantics, and topos theory — share a common fibered descent structure. In each case, target content is constrained to a canonically determined admissible region computed from a source, and collapse occurs when the source is informationally trivial. We identify two modes of canonical admissibility: a reflecti…

Nature Communications, Published online: 21 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41467-026-73199-6 Phase-change materials cannot be easily integrated into electrically driven metasurfaces. Here, the authors develop a monolithically integrated Sb2Se3 phase-change metasurface composed of a 6 × 6 pixel array, enabling high-speed and broadband control over the phase and amplitude of light.

Abstract Sb 2 Se 3 has established itself as a leading phase-change material for reconfigurable photonics, exhibiting broadband transparency and reversible optical transitions. However, previous metasurface implementations remain constrained by offline thermal or optical control mechanisms. We develop an electrically driven platform featuring monolithic integration of Sb 2 Se 3 nanostructures wit…

Abstract Although Ni–Fe–Ga-based alloys have been widely studied for their functional properties, previous works have primarily focused on stoichiometric or near-stoichiometric compositions, particularly in the form of ribbons, thin films, or rapidly solidified materials. Ti addition to these alloys has been explored only rarely and with a limited focus on their properties. In this study, we inve…
