- Scattered waves reveal hidden objects
- Isospin magnetic texture and intervalley exchange interaction in rhombohedral tetralayer grapheneNature Physics, Published online: 02 October 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-03035-z Hund’s exchange interaction energy in two-dimensional materials is challenging to extract from experiments. Now, this is achieved in rhombohedral graphene, which allows an estimate of the interactions that drive the variety of correlated states in this material.
- Radioactive ion beams for radiotherapyNature Physics, Published online: 02 October 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-03038-w Radiotherapy with charged particles is highly sensitive to uncertainties in their range. Now, radioactive ion beams offer increased precision and real-time imaging for tumour control while maintaining low toxicity to organs at risk.
- Cool nanoparticlesNature Physics, Published online: 30 September 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-03051-z High-purity quantum states, essential for quantum technological applications, were achieved by cooling optically levitated silica nanoparticles.
- Gate-tunable double-dome superconductivity in twisted trilayer grapheneNature Physics, Published online: 30 September 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-03040-2 Two regions of superconductivity are observed in the phase diagram of magic-angle twisted trilayer graphene. This may yield insight into the superconducting mechanism in moiré materials.
- Impact of low-energy spin fluctuations on the strange metal in a cuprate superconductorNature Physics, Published online: 30 September 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-03034-0 The underlying physics of the strange metal phase observed in many strongly correlated materials is not well understood. Now, evidence emerges that antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations play an important role.
- From bending to lightningNature Physics, Published online: 30 September 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-03050-0 Laboratory measurements reveal that ice exhibits flexoelectricity — the generation of an electrical field upon bending. This flexoelectricity may be the microscopic mechanism for the mysterious charge separation that creates lightning in thunderstorms.
- Sub-picosecond topological phase transition in nonlinear exciton–polariton superlatticesNature Physics, Published online: 26 September 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-03031-3 Achieving versatile, tunable, real-time topological photonic system is challenging. Now this is accomplished by designing superlattices of WS2 and a polymer embedded in a microcavity.
