The acoustic analogy of a Majorana bound state turned out to be a really good idea! In November last year we got this great cover story in Phys. Rev. Lett. Now, we showed that its binding mechanism constitutes a topological pump, which Wiley’s Advanced Quantum Technology journal selected as the September issue cover story! Great job Penglin! 👊

Here we have a great paper published today in the prestigious journal Adv. Funct. Mater. with impact factor 16.8 OMG! Usually, if you have more than 30 equations in your paper, you should consider a more specialized and less general journal, but we tried!
The first author is a special one! In 2005 for my M.Sc thesis he suggested me to look into phononic crystals! I was like, fono whaaat?? And the last author has only an H-index of 245!! 😂😂😂

You haven’t heard of Communications Physics yet? They should be pretty selective just as Nature Communications, just for the physics area. So in this regard, we are very pumped to have the journal’s first ever review out 💪!
