Like charges can pair up to make superconductors, so intuitively opposite charges should also have no trouble forming pairs. But condensates of electron–hole pairs are not common — one must search carefully for their fingerprints.

- Evasive condensate caught by fingerprints
- Magnon-polaritons dance around exceptional pointsNature Physics, Published online: 19 August 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02999-2 Coherent control of magnon excitations is crucial for their potential device application. The integration of the exceptional point in a magnon-photon hybrid system is shown to offer fast, coherent and topologically robust control of magnon-polariton states.
- Image-guided treatment of mouse tumours with radioactive ion beamsNature Physics, Published online: 19 August 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02993-8 Particle therapy is subject to uncertainties in the range of the beam. In this study, tumours in the necks of mice were treated with radioactive ion beams, which enabled real-time verification of the beam range.
- Coherent control of magnon–polaritons using an exceptional pointNature Physics, Published online: 19 August 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02998-3 Deterministic control of the gain–loss balance in non-Hermitian systems remains challenging. A magnonic hybrid platform is now shown to enable this and, hence, coherently control excitations by leveraging an exceptional point.
- Entanglement and the density matrix renormalization group in the generalized Landau paradigmNature Physics, Published online: 15 August 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02961-2 Quantum spin chains can be represented in several ways, and eigenstates in these dual models have different entanglement structures. By characterizing the dual theories, the optimal tensor network algorithm for simulating the models has been found.
- Efficient implementation of arbitrary two-qubit gates using unified controlNature Physics, Published online: 15 August 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02990-x The efficiency of a quantum computer depends on which basic operations it can implement. Now a scheme that can implement any two-qubit logic gate has been demonstrated on a superconducting architecture.
- Quantized limit of conductivity in near-ideal grapheneNature Physics, Published online: 13 August 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02974-x Transport properties near the Dirac point in graphene are expected to be determined by quantum many-body interactions between relativistic electrons. Experiments now show that the flow of charge and heat in high-quality graphene close to charge neutrality can be described within a hydrodynamic framework, with universal intrinsic electrical conductivity that is quantized to a value close to the quantum of conductance.
- A mechanical quantum memory for microwave photonsNature Physics, Published online: 13 August 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02975-w Superconducting qubits, a leading platform for quantum information processing, suffer from decoherence. Interfacing them with nanomechanical oscillators allows quantum information to be stored in motional states with longer lifetimes.
