Unusual impulse-momentum relationship in non-reciprocal light interactions.
Article in Light, science & applications, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Non-reciprocal interactions, featured with an asymmetric relation between action and reaction, underpin exotic phenomena across living and artificial systems. Albeit extensively studied, they have been largely underexplored in nonlinear interactions of waves. In this work, we report an unusual impulse-momentum relationship for an optical solitary wave whose internal interactions are non-reciprocal. The solitary wave gains either an enhanced or a reversed momentum relative to an impulse that is applied to one of its two components. In the regime where the solitary wave is not broken down, the impulse-momentum relationship is found to be linear, yet its slope is unusual - either exceeding one or even being negative. Our results may initiate more fundamental considerations related to non-reciprocal wave interactions that are useful for designing novel non-Hermitian devices. We report an unusual impulse-momentum relationship for an optical solitary wave whose internal interactions are non-reciprocal. An enhanced or even a reversed momentum compared to an impulse is gained.
