Stealthy hyperuniform (SHU) many-particle systems are distinguished by a structure factor that vanishes not only at zero wavenumber (as in ``standard'' hyperuniform systems) but also across an extended range of wavenumbers near the origin.…
Hyperuniform metasurfaces promise an unusual form of wave control: the suppression of elastic scattering over extended angular ranges without periodic order. Here, we present a comprehensive experimental and theoretical study of 2D stealthy…

Disordered hyperuniform (DHU) states are recently discovered exotic states of condensed matter. DHU systems are similar to liquids or glasses in that they are statistically isotropic and lack conventional long-range translational and…
Connections between the electron eigenstates and conductivity of one-dimensional disordered electron systems is studied in the framework of the tight-binding model. We show that for weak disorder only part of the states exhibit resonant…
