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

Identifying nonlinear interactions among magnons is crucial for advancing the field of magnonics and developing next-generation spintronic devices. In this work, we report the experimental observation of nonlinear magnon mode hopping and hysteretic behavior in a synthetic antiferromagnet (SAF). Under strong radio-frequency excitation, the magnon system exhibits abrupt transitions between acoustic and optic modes, accompanied by GHz-scale frequency jumps-orders of magnitude larger than previously reported in magnon-based hybrid systems. We further show that this mode hopping is hysteretic, reflecting multistable nonlinear dynamics, and support these findings through theory and micromagnetic simulations. These results establish a new regime of nonlinear magnon dynamics, going beyond previously reported strong-coupling effects, and highlight the potential of SAFs as platforms for magnon-based frequency converters and switches for information processing.
