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

Spin glasses are magnetic materials exhibiting numerous magnetization patterns, that randomly vary both in real space and in time. To date, it is still not well understood what the nature of these spatiotemporal dynamics is, namely if they are completely random or if there are relevant and correlated length and time scales. Here, we demonstrate dynamic heterogeneity in the aging dynamics of elemental neodymium. We used spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy in combination with atomistic spin dynamics simulations to image the locally ordered magnetic patterns in the self-induced spin glass state and tracked the induced spatiotemporal dynamics in response to external perturbations. We observed that the real-space magnetization exhibited a coexistence of slow and fast dynamics coinciding with particular length scales. We adapted a wavelet paradigm to identify and correlate local spatial order with its dynamical evolution. These results provide a platform to study dynamics in spin glasses beyond the mean-field limit, linking to a generalized picture of glasses.
