Despite being highly active against mycobacteria in vitro, its development as an anti-tubercular agent has been hindered due to suboptimal pharmacokinetics. Engineering of the acidomycin biosynthesis may yield new analogues with improved pharmacological properties. Here, we describe the identification of the acidomycin biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) in a Streptomyces bacterium isolated from the rhizosphere of Edelweiss. Notably, the acidomycin BGC is located in proximity to the genes for the biosynthesis of stravidins, secondary metabolites targeting a different enzyme in the biotin biosynthesis pathway, and two genes for streptavidins, proteins that strongly bind and sequester biotin. The identity of the acidomycin BGC was confirmed via both gene knock-out and heterologous expression, which suggested that the fatty acid required for the formation of acidomycin's acyl chain is most likely scavenged from the biotin biosynthesis pathway. CRISPR/Cas9-assisted knock-out of the cytochrome P450-encoding gene in the acidomycin BGC resulted in a significant decrease in its yield but did not abrogate the biosynthesis completely."}],"volume":19,"month":"04","issue":"4","date_updated":"2026-05-07T08:22:41Z","has_accepted_license":"1","oa_version":"Published Version","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png"},"date_created":"2026-05-03T22:01:37Z","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","oa":1,"file_date_updated":"2026-05-07T08:21:06Z","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"external_id":{"pmid":["42036976"]},"OA_place":"publisher","intvolume":" 19","year":"2026","department":[{"_id":"MassSpec"}],"doi":"10.1111/1751-7915.70357","publisher":"Wiley","OA_type":"gold","day":"01","DOAJ_listed":"1","acknowledgement":"This work was supported by the University of Vienna.

However, this prediction stands in stark contrast to observations, where only a few per cent of CVs are found in this evolutionary phase. A potential solution to this discrepancy is that a magnetic field emerges from within the white dwarf after the system has reached the period minimum. The transfer of angular momentum from the spin of the white dwarf into the orbit then pushes the two stars apart, detaching them for potentially billions of years. Here we present the discovery of ZTF J021804.16+071152.93, a detached 0.69 +- 0.01 M, 19 MG magnetic white dwarf plus 37 +- 5MJup brown dwarf binary with an orbital period of 1.7 h. The kinematics of the system indicate that it is a high probability member of the Galactic thick disc. However, this strongly disagrees with the much younger age of the system obtained from the white dwarf parameters, implying that the system may have been accreting in the past. This system is therefore consistent with having detached as a result of the emergence of the magnetic field of the white dwarf when the system was still mass transferring, and may represent the ultimate fate for many (perhaps even most) CVs."}],"month":"04","volume":547,"status":"public","_id":"21780","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1365-2966"],"issn":["0035-8711"]},"type":"journal_article","citation":{"short":"S.G.

A variety of models with distinct complexity and data requirements have been developed and widely used to simulate melt under debris at different sites and scales, but their skills have never been compared. As part of the activities of the International Association of Cryospheric Sciences (IACS) Debris Covered Glacier Working Group, we present an intercomparison exercise aimed at advancing our understanding of model skills in simulating ice melt under a debris layer. We compare 15 models with different complexity at nine sites in the European Alps, Caucasus, Chilean Andes, Nepalese Himalaya and the Southern Alps of New Zealand, over one melt season. We run the models with measured meteorological data from automatic weather stations and estimated or measured debris properties. We consider four main model categories: (i) energy balance models that calculate melt by solving the physics of heat transfer to the debris layer, but require a high amount of input data; (ii) a simplified energy balance model; (iii) enhanced temperature-index models; and (iv) simple empirical temperature-index models that have been extensively used given their low data requirement but require calibration of their empirical parameters. Model performance is evaluated using on-site measurements of sub-debris melt (for all models) and surface temperature (for models based on the surface energy balance). Our results show that physically-based energy balance models and empirical temperature-index models perform in a distinct manner. At one end of the spectrum, simple temperature-index models are accurate when recalibrated or when using site-specific literature parameters, and show poor results when parameters are uncalibrated. At the other end, energy balance models show a range of performance: the most accurate energy balance models are those with the highest degree of complexity at the atmosphere-debris interface. An important data gap emerged from our experiment: the poor performance of all models at three sites was related to the poor knowledge of debris properties, and specifically of thermal conductivity. Future work should focus on both: (i) consistent data acquisition to evaluate existing models and support new model developments; (ii) advancing models by accounting for processes such as debris-snow interactions, moisture in the debris and refreezing. We suggest that a systematic effort of model development using a common model framework could be carried out in phase II of the Working Group.","lang":"eng"}],"month":"04","volume":20,"date_updated":"2026-05-18T06:12:56Z","issue":"3","article_type":"original","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png"},"has_accepted_license":"1","oa_version":"Published Version","article_processing_charge":"Yes","citation":{"ista":"Pellicciotti F, Fontrodona-Bach A, Rounce DR, Fyffe CL, Anderson LS, Ayala Á, Brock BW, Buri P, Fugger S, Fujita K, GANTAYAT P, Groos AR, Immerzeel W, Kneib M, Mayer C, MacDonell S, McCarthy M, McPhee J, Miles E, Purdie H, Rets E, Sakai A, Shaw T, Steiner J, Wagnon P, Winter-Billington A. 2026.

After volumetric segmentation of the liver and spleen on CT, Bayesian parameter optimization was used for selection of extracted features and hyperparameter tuning in random forest or elastic net models. Prediction accuracy was evaluated using Pearson correlation coefficients of predicted (’radio-HVPG’) and invasive HVPG. Discrimination between relevant HVPG cut-offs was determined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. The predictive value of radio-HVPG and invasive-HVPG for LRE was compared using Cox regression models.\r\n\r\nResults: Radio-HVPG, predicted by an optimized random forest model based on 74 selected CT features, correlated with invasive-HVPG and detected clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH: HVPG ≥ 10 mmHg) on the internal (Pearson r = 0.63, AUC 0.89 [95% CI: 0.81–0.96]) and external (Pearson r = 0.62, AUC 0.80 [95% CI: 0.64–0.91]) validation cohorts. Radio-HVPG predicted LRE when adjusting for MELD and albumin (adjusted HR: 1.14 [95% CI: 1.04–1.25], p = 0.005) and performed similarly to invasive-HVPG.\r\n\r\nConclusions: Radiomic features accurately predict HVPG in patients with cirrhosis and allow risk stratification for LRE in a radiomics-clinical signature.","lang":"eng"}],"month":"05","volume":46,"keyword":["computed tomography","liver","portal hypertension","radiomics","spleen"],"article_type":"original","tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by_nc_nd.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0)","short":"CC BY-NC-ND (4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode"},"oa_version":"Published Version","has_accepted_license":"1","citation":{"apa":"Sin, C., Watzenboeck, M.

However, the frequency response under sinusoidal (AC) drivings offers rich insights into the time-dependent transport mechanisms. Inspired by recent electrochemical approaches, we investigate the couplings between ionic and electronic transport under AC driving. We show that conduction electrons of the channel walls participate in ionic current via capacitive electrochemical coupling, defining a critical frequency and length scale where electron-dominated conductivity emerges. We further analyze how electron–ion coupling modifies electro-osmotic flows and demonstrate that fluctuation-induced momentum transfer between the electrolyte and wall electrons produces distinct AC transport signatures, depending on the charge carrier polarity. Altogether, we establish a frequency-dependent transport matrix that couples ionic, electronic, and hydrodynamic flows. These findings establish AC nanofluidic transport as a powerful probe of interfacial phenomena under confinement and suggest new directions for engineering nanofluidic functionalities through electron–electrolyte coupling."}],"volume":164,"month":"04","date_updated":"2026-05-18T07:34:57Z","issue":"13","has_accepted_license":"1","oa_version":"Published Version","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png"},"title":"Electron–electrolyte coupling in AC transport through nanofluidic channels","article_number":"134704","date_published":"2026-04-07T00:00:00Z","author":[{"full_name":"Coquinot, Baptiste","last_name":"Coquinot","orcid":"0000-0001-5524-596X","first_name":"Baptiste","id":"f8417bd4-f599-11ee-a482-b927e3ed1e8e"},{"first_name":"Mathieu","full_name":"Lizée, Mathieu","last_name":"Lizée"},{"full_name":"Bocquet, Lydéric","last_name":"Bocquet","first_name":"Lydéric"},{"full_name":"Kavokine, Nikita","last_name":"Kavokine","first_name":"Nikita"}],"publication_status":"published","quality_controlled":"1","file":[{"content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"21889","file_name":"2026_JourChemPhysics_Coquinot.pdf","access_level":"open_access","file_size":5497515,"date_created":"2026-05-18T07:31:23Z","date_updated":"2026-05-18T07:31:23Z","creator":"dernst","relation":"main_file","checksum":"a896969c829be2a79859bd277f87b44c","success":1}],"publication":"The Journal of Chemical Physics"},{"status":"public","_id":"21841","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1943-2631"]},"type":"journal_article","citation":{"apa":"Tautz, D., Pallares, L.

Yet this paradigm is increasingly recognized as inadequate for explaining continuous phenotypic variation and the complex genetic architectures of the genotype–phenotype map. Modern genetics emerged from the early 20th-century synthesis of Mendelian and biometric schools of heredity, with R.A. Fisher demonstrating early on how multiple discrete loci could collectively produce continuous variation. Despite this fundamental insight, Mendelism—with its focus on single genes and standardized genetic backgrounds—became the dominant framework, shaping current genetics research and molecular biology as well as science education. The advent of large-scale genomic data has revealed yet again the limitations of this reductionist approach. Evidence from quantitative genetics now shows that most phenotypes arise from complex networks of many interdependent genes and their dynamic responses to environmental perturbations. Here we trace the historical roots of how Mendelian classical genetics departed from the biometric school to create the current predominant paradigm in genetics, despite fundamentally unresolved issues. Moving on from this one-sided paradigm will require systematic development of integrative, evolutionarily grounded experimental approaches that better capture the multigenic and context-dependent nature of inheritance. Achieving such an extended perspective will require methodological innovation, including advances in large-scale (e.g. automated) phenotyping. Dedicated research programs will be necessary to advance a new era of genetic research into the complex mechanisms underlying phenotypic variation.","lang":"eng"}],"author":[{"last_name":"Tautz","full_name":"Tautz, Diethard","first_name":"Diethard"},{"last_name":"Pallares","full_name":"Pallares, Luisa F","first_name":"Luisa F"},{"last_name":"Andersson","full_name":"Andersson, Leif","first_name":"Leif"},{"full_name":"Barghi, Neda","last_name":"Barghi","first_name":"Neda"},{"full_name":"Barton, Nicholas H","orcid":"0000-0002-8548-5240","last_name":"Barton","first_name":"Nicholas H","id":"4880FE40-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"last_name":"Bay","full_name":"Bay, Rachael","first_name":"Rachael"},{"first_name":"Yingguang Frank","last_name":"Chan","full_name":"Chan, Yingguang Frank"},{"last_name":"Hancock","full_name":"Hancock, Angela","first_name":"Angela"},{"full_name":"Kaiser, Tobias S","last_name":"Kaiser","first_name":"Tobias S"},{"first_name":"Daniel","last_name":"Koenig","full_name":"Koenig, Daniel"},{"first_name":"Zacharias","last_name":"Kontarakis","full_name":"Kontarakis, Zacharias"},{"first_name":"Miriam","last_name":"Liedvogel","full_name":"Liedvogel, Miriam"},{"full_name":"de Meaux, Juliette","last_name":"de Meaux","first_name":"Juliette"},{"first_name":"Magnus","full_name":"Nordborg, Magnus","last_name":"Nordborg"},{"full_name":"Palmer, Abraham A","last_name":"Palmer","first_name":"Abraham A"},{"last_name":"Purugganan","full_name":"Purugganan, Michael","first_name":"Michael"},{"first_name":"Christian","last_name":"Schlötterer","full_name":"Schlötterer, Christian"},{"first_name":"Karl","full_name":"Schmid, Karl","last_name":"Schmid"},{"full_name":"Stainier, Didier Y R","last_name":"Stainier","first_name":"Didier Y R"},{"last_name":"Weigel","full_name":"Weigel, Detlef","first_name":"Detlef"},{"first_name":"Jochen B W","last_name":"Wolf","full_name":"Wolf, Jochen B W"},{"last_name":"Ebert","full_name":"Ebert, Dieter","first_name":"Dieter"},{"last_name":"Gibson","full_name":"Gibson, Greg","first_name":"Greg"}],"article_number":"iyag024","date_published":"2026-04-01T00:00:00Z","title":"Beyond Mendel: A call to revisit the genotype–phenotype map through new experimental paradigms","pmid":1,"quality_controlled":"1","publication":"Genetics","file":[{"relation":"main_file","checksum":"5a862c539f9dec4511277ad8927c549c","creator":"dernst","success":1,"date_updated":"2026-05-18T07:48:45Z","file_size":542844,"date_created":"2026-05-18T07:48:45Z","content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"21890","access_level":"open_access","file_name":"2026_Genetics_Tautz.pdf"}],"publication_status":"published","OA_type":"hybrid","day":"01","doi":"10.1093/genetics/iyag024","publisher":"Oxford University Press","ddc":["570"],"acknowledgement":"We thank a variety of further colleagues for the many inspiring discussions on the nature of heredity, especially the workshops in Berlin.

Their high abundance at redshifts of z ∼ 6–8 and decline at lower redshifts suggest a transient origin. We propose that the spectral shape of LRDs originates from compact binary black hole systems, in which each black hole is surrounded by a mini-disk and embedded within a larger circumbinary disk. With a binary separation of ≲103 Schwarzschild radii, the Wien tail of a T ≃ 5000 K blackbody spectrum at the inner edge of the circumbinary disk produces the red optical emission, while the mini-disks power the UV continuum. Binary torques carve out a gap between the circumbinary disk and the mini-disks, setting the turnover wavelength of the V-shaped spectrum around the Balmer limit. This scenario naturally reproduces LRD spectra requiring only modest dust attenuation (AV ≲ 1 mag), resolving overestimated luminosities for LRDs in previous studies and alleviating a tension with the so-called Sołtan argument. This model predicts distinct spectral evolution as the binary orbit decays through binary disk interactions and gravitational-wave (GW) emission, linking early-stage “proto-LRD” binaries to the broader AGN population and late-stage “LRD descendants” to coalescing binaries detectable in GW experiments."}],"issue":"1","date_updated":"2026-05-11T07:09:12Z","_id":"21844","status":"public","type":"journal_article","publication_identifier":{"issn":["0004-637X"],"eissn":["1538-4357"]},"article_processing_charge":"Yes","citation":{"ista":"Inayoshi K, Shangguan J, Chen X, Ho LC, Haiman Z. 2026.

One potential pairing mechanism, invoked in the related re-entrant superconductors UCoGe and URhGe, involves transverse fluctuations of a ferromagnetic order parameter. However, the requisite ferromagnetic order—present in both UCoGe and URhGe—is absent in UTe2, and neutron scattering shows instead that the magnetic susceptibility is peaked at an antiferromagnetic wavevector. Here, we measure the magnetotropic susceptibility of UTe2 across two field-angle planes. This quantity is sensitive to the magnetic susceptibility in a direction transverse to the applied magnetic field—a quantity that is not accessed in conventional magnetization measurements. We observe a very large decrease in the magnetotropic susceptibility over a broad range of field orientations, indicating a large increase in the transverse magnetic susceptibility. Because our technique probes the magnetic susceptibility in the long wavelength (q = 0) limit, this suggests that the strong transverse susceptibility arises from ferromagnetic spin fluctuations. These ferromagnetic fluctuations are likely important for understanding the pairing mechanism in UTe2, as all three superconducting phases of UTe2 surround this region of enhanced susceptibility in the field-angle phase diagram.","lang":"eng"}],"month":"04","volume":17,"related_material":{"record":[{"id":"21174","status":"public","relation":"research_data"}]},"article_type":"original","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png"},"oa_version":"Published Version","has_accepted_license":"1","PlanS_conform":"1","file_date_updated":"2026-05-11T06:32:12Z","oa":1,"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","date_created":"2026-05-10T22:02:15Z","corr_author":"1","OA_place":"publisher","external_id":{"arxiv":["2506.08984"]},"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"project":[{"grant_number":"101078696","_id":"bd968c70-d553-11ed-ba76-cde40b0aba64","name":"Gaining leverage with spin liquids and superconductors"}],"department":[{"_id":"KiMo"},{"_id":"GradSch"}],"intvolume":" 17","year":"2026","publisher":"Springer Nature","doi":"10.1038/s41467-026-71899-7","arxiv":1,"DOAJ_listed":"1","OA_type":"gold","day":"29","scopus_import":"1","acknowledgement":"We appreciate technical support from Salvatore Bagiante, Evgeniia Volobueva, Lubuna Shafeek, Ali Bangura, and Zoltán Köllö, and scientific discussions with Daniel Agterberg, Johnpierre Paglione, Qimiao Si, Josephine Yu and Yue Yu.

This fraction is even higher when smaller spatial scales are probed at high signal-to-noise ratio: the two most strongly lensed LRDs, A383-LRD1 and the newly discovered A68-LRD1, both have UV-bright companions at separations of only d ∼ 0.3 kpc, below the resolution limit of most unlensed JWST samples. We explore whether these ubiquitous red/blue configurations may be physically linked to the formation of LRDs, in analogy with the “synchronized pair” scenario originally proposed for direct-collapse black hole formation. In this picture, UV radiation from the companions, with typically modest stellar masses (M∗ ∼ 108−109 M⊙), suppresses molecular hydrogen cooling in nearby gas, allowing nearly isothermal collapse and the formation of extremely compact objects, such as massive black holes, supermassive stars, or quasi-stars. Using component-resolved photometry and spectral energy distribution modeling, we infer Lyman–Werner radiation fields of J21,LW ∼ 102.5–105 at the locations of the red components, comparable to those required in direct-collapse models, suggesting that the necessary photodissociation conditions are realized in many LRD systems. This framework provides a simple and self-consistent explanation for the extreme compactness and distinctive spectral properties of LRDs and links long-standing theoretical models for early compact object formation directly to a population now observed with JWST in the early Universe."}],"date_updated":"2026-05-11T06:48:33Z","issue":"1","has_accepted_license":"1","oa_version":"Published Version","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png"}},{"publication_status":"published","publication":"Physical Review Research","file":[{"relation":"main_file","creator":"dernst","success":1,"checksum":"dbfc58e1e176f7b63e0d274eb0d1bffa","date_updated":"2026-05-11T06:56:58Z","file_size":1829628,"date_created":"2026-05-11T06:56:58Z","file_name":"2026_PhysicalReviewResearch_Moller.pdf","file_id":"21852","content_type":"application/pdf","access_level":"open_access"}],"quality_controlled":"1","title":"Learning minimal representations of many-body physics from snapshots of a quantum simulator","date_published":"2026-04-29T00:00:00Z","article_number":"023094","author":[{"last_name":"Moller","full_name":"Moller, Frederik Skovbo","id":"43cbcc83-0564-11f0-a935-e37325525859","first_name":"Frederik Skovbo"},{"first_name":"Gabriel","last_name":"Fernández-Fernández","full_name":"Fernández-Fernández, Gabriel"},{"first_name":"Thomas","full_name":"Schweigler, Thomas","last_name":"Schweigler"},{"last_name":"De Schoulepnikoff","full_name":"De Schoulepnikoff, Paulin","first_name":"Paulin"},{"first_name":"Jörg","full_name":"Schmiedmayer, Jörg","last_name":"Schmiedmayer"},{"last_name":"Muñoz-Gil","full_name":"Muñoz-Gil, Gorka","first_name":"Gorka"}],"month":"04","abstract":[{"text":"Analog quantum simulators provide access to many-body dynamics beyond the reach of classical computation. However, extracting physical insights from experimental data is often hindered by measurement noise, limited observables, and incomplete knowledge of the underlying microscopic model. Here, we develop a machine learning approach based on a variational autoencoder (VAE) to analyze interference measurements of tunnel-coupled one-dimensional Bose gases, which realize the sine-Gordon quantum field theory. Trained in an unsupervised manner, the VAE learns a minimal latent representation that strongly correlates with the equilibrium control parameter of the system. Applied to nonequilibrium protocols, the latent space uncovers signatures of frozen-in solitons following rapid cooling, and reveals anomalous postquench dynamics not captured by conventional correlation-based methods. These results demonstrate that generative models can extract physically interpretable variables directly from noisy and sparse experimental data, providing complementary probes of equilibrium and nonequilibrium physics in quantum simulators. More broadly, our work highlights how machine learning can supplement established field-theoretical techniques, paving the way for scalable, data-driven discovery in quantum many-body systems.","lang":"eng"}],"volume":8,"issue":"2","date_updated":"2026-05-11T06:58:56Z","article_type":"original","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png"},"has_accepted_license":"1","oa_version":"Published Version","article_processing_charge":"Yes","citation":{"ista":"Moller FS, Fernández-Fernández G, Schweigler T, De Schoulepnikoff P, Schmiedmayer J, Muñoz-Gil G. 2026.

By functionalizing lipid nanoparticles with a langerin-specific glycomimetic ligand, we achieve selective mRNA delivery to both murine and human primary Langerhans cells with minimal off-target uptake, at the same time resulting in significantly increased mRNA translation. This targeted mRNA delivery not only enhances antigen presentation and T-cell responses but also enables dose-sparing and superior antitumor immunity compared with conventional immunization in a B16-OVA tumor model.

The α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex (αKGDHC), an enzyme of the tricarboxylic acid cycle, represents a branching point controlling glutamate formation and its consumption as a fuel. Hence, modulation of the activity of αKGDHC might alter the amount of glutamate available for excitotoxic effects. To address this hypothesis, hippocampal neurons in primary co-culture with glial cells were exposed to zero-Mg2 buffer to elicit excitotoxicity through N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptor disinhibition. Pretreatment of the cultures with succinyl phosphonate, to inhibit αKGDHC, enhanced excitotoxity, whereas promotion of αKGDHC activity by pretreatment with thiamine caused an opposite action. Moreover, NMDA receptor currents – but not those mediated by α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors – were potentiated in neurons with impaired αKGDHC activity and diminished in neurons with boosted αKGDHC activity. The sensitization of NMDA receptors involved mGluR1 activation and was accompanied by enhanced neuronal discharge activity, elevated basal cytosolic Ca2+ levels, and augmented Ca2+ responses evoked by glutamate application. These results suggest that mGluR1-mediated potentiation of NMDA receptors contributes to a mechanism by which inhibition of αKGDHC might exacerbate glutamate excitotoxicity.","lang":"eng"}],"article_type":"original","author":[{"full_name":"Goeschl, Vanessa","last_name":"Goeschl","first_name":"Vanessa"},{"first_name":"Matej","last_name":"Hotka","full_name":"Hotka, Matej"},{"id":"e6cab3de-17f6-11ed-9210-c1e42e045e9d","first_name":"Bernhard","last_name":"Hochreiter","full_name":"Hochreiter, Bernhard"},{"last_name":"Hilber","full_name":"Hilber, Karlheinz","first_name":"Karlheinz"},{"full_name":"Boehm, Stefan","last_name":"Boehm","first_name":"Stefan"},{"first_name":"Andrey V.","last_name":"Kozlov","full_name":"Kozlov, Andrey V."},{"first_name":"Helmut","full_name":"Kubista, Helmut","last_name":"Kubista"}],"date_published":"2026-04-27T00:00:00Z","article_number":"jcs264420","title":"α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex activity modulates glutamate excitotoxicity via metabotropic regulation of NMDA receptors in primary cultures","file":[{"file_id":"21861","access_level":"open_access","content_type":"application/pdf","file_name":"2026_JourCellScience_Goeschl.pdf","file_size":1957057,"date_created":"2026-05-12T06:27:54Z","date_updated":"2026-05-12T06:27:54Z","creator":"dernst","checksum":"8db35c97588c2f6ef88c7e8d5924cf8c","success":1,"relation":"main_file"}],"publication":"Journal of Cell Science","pmid":1,"quality_controlled":"1","publication_status":"published"},{"doi":"10.15479/AT-ISTA-21863","publisher":"Institute of Science and Technology Austria","alternative_title":["ISTA Thesis"],"day":"12","ddc":["530","537","539"],"acknowledgement":"The author of this work was supported by the European Research Council under grant no.\r\n101089099 (ERC CoG cQEO) and the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation\r\nprogram under grant no. 899354 (FETopen SuperQuLAN).\r\nThis work was also supported by the European Research Council under grant nos. 758053\r\n(ERC StG QUNNECT), 101248662 (ERC POC CoupledEOT), and the European Innovation\r\nCouncil no. 101187231 (PathfinderOpen CIELO).

The former, the building block of matter, something we learn about in school and imagine it as some tiny marbles encircled by other tinier marbles. The latter, an electromagnetic wave, a light particle or an excitation of the electromagnetic field. Quantum mechanics tells us about the properties of these two entities. And even if it sounds, looks and writes counter-intuitive, it has proven right for over a century now.\r\n\r\nIn this work, I elaborate on how we tested the laws of quantum mechanics and how we used them learn more about the tiny building blocks of nature and the fields they use to talk to each other. The atoms we use, are artificial. Superconducting qubits, small electrical circuits with quantized energy levels behave like electrons that transition between different orbitals in an atom. One of the qubits' advantages, is also a big disadvantage. We design the circuits' energy levels and fabricate them in a cleanroom. This allows for arbitrary spaced energy levels but in contrast to real atoms, prevents two superconducting qubits from being alike. Still, this qubit platform is one of the frontrunners for future quantum computing technology and testing fundamental physics due to their scalability.\r\n\r\nWe interface superconducting qubits, which operate in the GHz regime, with microwave photons. We use 3D aluminum cavities as mediators between qubits and photons. The cavities allow for non-destructive readout of the qubit state, they shield the qubits from noise at the qubit frequency and they give us an easy way to frequency-tune these joint systems.\r\n\r\nWe need to operate superconducting qubits and their cavities at millikelvin temperatures in dilution refrigerators. At higher temperatures, superconductivity suffers and even worse, the environment is filled with thermal noise photons. This poses a fundamental limitation on the scalability of superconducting qubit devices. Also connecting multiple devices in different fridges does not work over room temperature links because the microwave photons used for this purpose will be covered in noise and the quantum information they carry, will be unusable.\r\n\r\nInfrared photons do not suffer from this noise problem since there are close to zero thermal noise photons at their frequencies at room temperature. We cannot simply interface superconducting devices with optical photons due their frequency mismatch and the destructive effect of optical photons on superconductors. Therefore, we use microwave-to-optics transducers that allow to convert microwave photons into optical ones and vice-versa. The transducers that we use are macroscopic electro-optic transducers using the Pockels effect in a disk-shaped Lithium Niobate whispering gallery mode resonator. By using a strong optical pump, photons from the two frequency domains experience a beam-splitter interaction and get converted from one to the other.\r\n\r\nWe measure the generated optical photons using elaborate optical setups, optical heterodyning and single photon detectors to gain knowledge about the qubit state or the converted microwave photons. Bridging the microwave and the optical world allows us to take advantage of both of their strengths but it also requires deep knowledge about both of their working principles.\r\n\r\nIn this work, we describe two experiments that our group conducted to showcase the opportunities that arise from interfacing superconducting qubits with optical photons but also the pitfalls, one may encounter on the way.\r\n\r\nIn the first experiment, we managed to all-optically read out a superconducting qubit. We show that the assignment fidelity, the probability that a measurement of the qubit state matches the prepared state, is close to equal for all-optical, microwave-to-optics and conventional microwave readout. We show T1 and T2 measurements for all three readout types and give an analysis of the noise caused by the optics. Finally, we show that the infrared light does not affect the qubit performance in a negative way but that the heating it causes does. This is an important insight that we used in the next experiment.\r\n\r\nThe second experiment is the upconversion of itinerant single microwave photons to the optical domain. We show that we can generate single microwave photons from a qubit-cavity system. We upconvert these single photons, measure them with a single photon detector and reconstruct their shape. By conducting a single photon Rabi measurement, we show correlations between the microwave and the optical domain. And by thorough signal-to-noise measurements and noise analysis, we find that we can generate single infrared photons with high signal-to-noise ratio 5.1 and low transducer added noise (<0.012 quanta). We show that this measurement creates a path towards entanglement of a superconducting qubit and an optical photon and what parameters need to be improved to achieve it. Additionally, this experiment is a proof of principle for an on-demand infrared single photon source. More generally, it allows to link microwave quantum technology in general to the optical domain."}],"date_updated":"2026-05-20T13:35:43Z","has_accepted_license":"1","oa_version":"Published Version","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png"},"title":"Interfacing superconducting qubits with optical photons","date_published":"2026-05-12T00:00:00Z","author":[{"full_name":"Werner, Thomas","last_name":"Werner","orcid":"0009-0001-2346-5236","first_name":"Thomas","id":"1fcd8497-dba3-11ea-a45e-c6fbd715f7c7"}],"acknowledged_ssus":[{"_id":"M-Shop"},{"_id":"NanoFab"},{"_id":"LifeSc"},{"_id":"SSU"}],"page":"97","publication_status":"published","file":[{"date_created":"2026-05-15T15:53:57Z","file_size":9330516,"file_name":"2026_Werner_Thomas_Thesis.pdf","access_level":"open_access","content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"21879","creator":"twerner","relation":"main_file","checksum":"a5b4d8dba83f96e955a3625c0eebee98","date_updated":"2026-05-15T15:53:57Z"},{"date_updated":"2026-05-15T15:54:06Z","creator":"twerner","relation":"source_file","checksum":"b41282beaacfb32472769b9e3b1758d8","file_name":"2026_Werner_Thomas_Thesis.zip","file_id":"21880","access_level":"closed","content_type":"application/x-zip-compressed","date_created":"2026-05-15T15:54:06Z","file_size":9370704}]}]
