Hidden universality in dislocation-loops mediated three-dimensional crystal melting

arXiv:2602.16390v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Understanding why and how crystalline solids melt remains a central problem in condensed-matter physics. Dislocation loops are fundamental topological excitations that control the thermodynamic stability of crystals, yet their ...
