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

The fractional quantum Hall effect at half-filled Landau levels provides a promising route to unusual topological phases that may host non-Abelian excitations, but these states are often fragile and difficult to control experimentally. Here, we report the observation of a cascade of even-denominator fractional quantum Hall states at fillings ν = -5/2, -7/2, -9/2, -11/2 and -13/2, alongside numerous odd-denominator states in mixed-stacked pentalayer graphene-a system characterized by intertwined quadratic and cubic band dispersions. These even-denominator states emerge from two distinct intra-zeroth Landau levels and exhibit displacement-field tunability. At half fillings, continuous quantum phase transitions between even-denominator states, magnetic Bloch states, and composite Fermi liquids are clearly identified upon tuning external fields. Numerical calculations support possible Moore-Read type pairing for even-denominator states, although direct probes of their exchange statistics remain important for future experiments. These results establish mixed-stacked graphene as a versatile platform for tunable correlated topological phases.
