Contact zones between subspecies or closely related species offer valuable insights into speciation processes.A typical feature of such zones is the presence of clinal variation in multiple traits.The nature of these traits and the concordance among clines are expected to influence whether and how quickly speciation will proceed.Learned signals, su

Abstract In the quest to connect bulk topological quantum numbers to measurable parameters in real materials, current established approaches often necessitate specific conditions, limiting their applicability.Here we propose and Emergency Lighting demonstrate an approach to link the non-trivial hierarchical bulk topology to the multidimensional par
