Near a magic twist angle, bilayer graphene transforms from a weakly correlated Fermi liquid to a strongly correlated two-dimensional electron system with properties that are extraordinarily sensitive to carrier density and to controllable environmental factors such as the proximity of nearby gates and twist-angle variation. Among other phenomena, magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene hosts superconductivity, interaction-induced insulating states, magnetism, electronic nematicity, linear-in-temperature low-temperature resistivity and quantized anomalous Hall states. We highlight some key research results in this field, point to important questions that remain open and comment on the place of magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene in the strongly correlated quantum matter world.
