- Oxygen-centred planar orbitals in the electronic structure and spin-density-wave reconstruction of multilayer nickelates
- Entanglement-enabled image transmission through complex mediaNature Physics, Published online: 19 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03265-9 Classical approaches to imaging through complex media do not account for the quantum nature of the incident field. Now, images encoded on an entangled two-photon state are shown to transmit through a scattering medium whereas scattered by classical light.
- Simple input–output dependencies explain neuronal activityNature Physics, Published online: 18 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03306-3 In neurons, the mapping from inputs to output involves complex biophysical processes. Despite this complexity, it is now shown that simple artificial models explain a large fraction of the variability in neuronal activity.
- More spin flow with less dissipationNature Physics, Published online: 18 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03267-7 More spin current can be produced with less energy lost at the source, thanks to inter-magnet pumping that rebalances angular momentum dissipation between sublattices in a ferrimagnetic multilayer.
- A yardstick for quantum gravityNature Physics, Published online: 15 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03283-7 Max Planck introduced units of length, time and mass defined solely in terms of fundamental constants. As Saurya Das explains, these units define a system in which quantum mechanics, relativity, gravity and thermodynamics meet on equal footing.
- From data to dialogueNature Physics, Published online: 15 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03323-2 Most researchers would agree that science communication is important. Still, academia would benefit from a more proactive approach — one that embeds communication in research culture.

- Cavity quantum electrodynamics control of quantum Hall stripesNature Physics, Published online: 15 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03287-3 Vacuum fluctuations amplified by a cavity can control and modify quantum phases. Now, strong anisotropic transport is demonstrated by manipulating quantum Hall stripes in a two-dimensional electron gas.
