Demonstration of collinear factorization breaking due to collinear-to-soft Glauber exchanges for a 2 → 3 exclusive process at leading twist

We exhibit an exclusive process, namely the photoproduction of a π 0 γ pair with large invariant mass, which violates collinear factorization. We explicitly demonstrate that this is due to the fact that there exists diagrams with gluon exchange in t channel, contributing at the leading power, for which are . This is caused by the pinching of the contour integration of the plus and minus light-cone components of the Glauber gluon momentum. We argue that this leads to the observed “end pointlike” divergence of the convolution integral at leading order and leading power when collinear factorization is naïvely assumed.

Moiré Exchange Effect in Twisted WSe 2 /WS 2 Heterobilayer

Moiré superlattices of layered transition metal dichalcogenides are proven to host periodic electron crystals due to strong correlation effects. These electron crystals can also be intertwined with intricate magnetic phenomena. Here, in this Letter, we present our findings on the moiré exchange effect, resulting from the modulation of local magnetic moments by electron crystals within well-aligned WSe 2 /WS 2 heterobilayers. Employing polarization-resolved magneto-optical spectroscopy, we unveil a high-energy excitonic resonance near one hole per moiré unit cell (v=–1), which possesses a giant g factor several times greater than the already very large g factor of the WSe 2 A exciton in this heterostructure. Supported by continuum model calculations, these high-energy states are found to be dark excitons brightened through Umklapp scattering from the moiré mini-Brillouin zone. When the carriers form a Mott insulating state near v=–1, the Coulomb exchange between doped carriers and excitons forms an effective magnetic field with moiré periodicity. This moiré exchange effect gives rise to the observed giant g factor for the excitonic Umklapp state.
