- Higher-order Laplacian renormalization
- Diffraction minima resolve point scatterers at few hundredths of the wavelengthNature Physics, Published online: 21 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02760-1 The central maximum of a diffraction pattern is commonly used to resolve point-like scatterers. Now spatial resolution far below the diffraction limit is achieved by using the scattering minima.
- Cyclic jetting enables microbubble-mediated drug deliveryNature Physics, Published online: 21 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02785-0 Ultrasound-driven microbubbles are promising candidates for drug delivery, but the mechanism of action is unclear. Now, single microbubbles induce drug uptake through cyclic microjets formed at mild ultrasound pressures via interfacial instability.
- Universal dissipative dynamics in strongly correlated quantum gasesNature Physics, Published online: 19 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02800-4 Although traditionally considered an obstacle to the study of quantum effects, dissipation has now been shown to enable the measurement of strong quantum fluctuations in one-dimensional atomic gases.
- Topology shapes dynamics of higher-order networksNature Physics, Published online: 19 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02757-w Higher-order interactions reveal new aspects of the interplay between topology and dynamics in complex systems. This Perspective describes the emerging field of higher-order topological dynamics and discusses the open research questions in the area.
- Local minima in quantum systemsNature Physics, Published online: 18 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02781-4 In general, it is difficult to identify the global energy minimum of a many-body system. Now, it has been shown that finding even local minima is difficult classically but efficiently achievable with a quantum computer.
- Author Correction: Magnetic flux trapping in hydrogen-rich high-temperature superconductorsNature Physics, Published online: 18 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02823-x Author Correction: Magnetic flux trapping in hydrogen-rich high-temperature superconductors
- Wideband electric field quantum sensing via motional Raman transitionsNature Physics, Published online: 18 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02753-0 The narrow frequency response of quantum harmonic oscillators typically limits their application in radiofrequency electric field detection. Now motional Raman transitions in trapped ions are shown to enable wideband, high-precision radiofrequency field sensing.
