1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Magic-Angle Twisted Bilayer Graphene (MATBG) shows a wide range of correlated phases which are electrostatically tunable. Despite a growing knowledge of the material, there is yet no consensus on the microscopic mechanisms driving its superconducting phase. A major obstacle to progress in this direction is that key thermodynamic properties, such as specific heat, electron-phonon coupling and superfluid stiffness, are challenging to measure due to the 2D nature of the material and its relatively low energy scales. Here, we use a gate-defined, radio frequency-biased, Josephson junction to probe the electronic dynamics of MATBG. We demonstrate evidence for two processes determining the low-frequency dynamics across the phase diagram: thermalization of electronic quasiparticles through phonon scattering and inductive response of the superconducting condensate. A phenomenological approach allows us to relate the experimentally observed dynamics to several thermodynamic properties of MATBG, including electron-phonon coupling and superfluid stiffness. Our findings support anisotropic or nodal superconductivity in MATBG and demonstrate a broadly applicable method for studying properties of 2D materials with out-of-equilibrium nanodevice dynamics.
