- Islands identified
- Nematic fluctuations shape Cooper pairsNature Physics, Published online: 13 November 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02693-9 Experimental evidence of nematic-fluctuation-mediated superconductivity has been observed in an iron-based superconductor near the quantum critical point.
- A different facet to materials designNature Physics, Published online: 12 November 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02709-4 Complex oxides have competing phases with different spin, electronic and orbital order. Now it has been shown that growing thin films on different facets of a low-symmetry substrate can be used to control the phase of the ground state.

- Orbital fails to take flightNature Physics, Published online: 11 November 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02688-6 Orbital fails to take flight
- Artificial boundariesNature Physics, Published online: 11 November 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02717-4 The 2024 Nobel prize for Physics was awarded for foundational contributions to the development of artificial neural networks. The award reflects a shift in how we understand boundaries between scientific fields — or whether such boundaries are still useful at all.
- The span of spaceNature Physics, Published online: 11 November 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02684-w Twinkle, twinkle little star, tell me just how far you are. Richard I. Anderson discusses standard candles and their applications.
- Thirty years of puzzling superconductivity in Sr<sub>2</sub>RuO<sub>4</sub>Nature Physics, Published online: 11 November 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02656-0 After 30 years of extensive research, the nature of the unconventional superconductivity in Sr2RuO4 is still not fully understood. This Perspective summarizes the controversies surrounding this and discusses future research.
