Universality of pseudogap and emergent order in lightly doped Mott insulators pp21 - 25 I. Battisti, K. M. Bastiaans, V. Fedoseev, A. de la Torre, N. Iliopoulos et al. doi:10.1038/nphys3894 Surprising observations in the evolution of electronic states in electron-doped iridates provide fresh insight into the melting of the Mott state and might lead to a fuller understanding of corresponding processes in copper-oxide superconductors. |

Optical manipulation of valley pseudospin pp26 - 29 Ziliang Ye, Dezheng Sun and Tony F. Heinz doi:10.1038/nphys3891 Valleys in momentum space provide a degree of freedom that could be exploited for applications. A demonstration of valley pseudospin control now completes the generation–manipulation–detection paradigm, paving the way for valleytronic devices.

One-dimensional spinon spin currents pp30 - 34 Daichi Hirobe, Masahiro Sato, Takayuki Kawamata, Yuki Shiomi, Ken-ichi Uchida et al. doi:10.1038/nphys3895 Spin currents can be carried by electrons and by magnons. Experiments now show that, in one-dimensional spin chains, spin currents can also be carried by particle-like excitations known as spinons. |

Directly probing anisotropy in atom–molecule collisions through quantum scattering resonances pp35 - 38 Ayelet Klein, Yuval Shagam, Wojciech Skomorowski, Piotr S. Å»uchowski, Mariusz Pawlak et al. doi:10.1038/nphys3904 Atom–molecule interactions are orientation-dependent. Now the anisotropy of He–H2 interactions has been probed by measuring how the associated quantum scattering resonances respond to tuning of the H2 rotational state.

Ultrastrong coupling of a single artificial atom to an electromagnetic continuum in the nonperturbative regime pp39 - 43 P. Forn-Díaz, J. J. García-Ripoll, B. Peropadre, J.-L. Orgiazzi, M. A. Yurtalan et al. doi:10.1038/nphys3905 A superconducting artificial atom coupled to a 1D waveguide tests the limits of light–matter interaction in an unexplored coupling regime, which may enable new perspectives for quantum technologies.

Superconducting qubit–oscillator circuit beyond the ultrastrong-coupling regime pp44 - 47 Fumiki Yoshihara, Tomoko Fuse, Sahel Ashhab, Kosuke Kakuyanagi, Shiro Saito et al. doi:10.1038/nphys3906 A circuit that pairs a flux qubit with an LC oscillator via Josephson junctions pushes the coupling between light to matter to uncharted territory, with the potential for new applications in quantum technologies.

Quantum electrodynamics near a photonic bandgap pp48 - 52 Yanbing Liu and Andrew A. Houck doi:10.1038/nphys3834 Using a superconducting transmon qubit coupled to a microwave photonic crystal one can study intriguing strong-coupling effects such as the emergence of localized cavity modes within the photonic bandgap.

Stokes solitons in optical microcavities pp53 - 57 Qi-Fan Yang, Xu Yi, Ki Youl Yang and Kerry Vahala doi:10.1038/nphys3875 Solitonic modes that are redshifted due to a Raman-related effect are reported in optical microcavities, and termed Stokes solitons. |

Topological defects in confined populations of spindle-shaped cells pp58 - 62 Guillaume Duclos, Christoph Erlenkämper, Jean-François Joanny and Pascal Silberzan doi:10.1038/nphys3876 Spindle-shaped cells readily form nematic structures marked by topological defects. When confined, the defect distribution is independent of the domain size, activity and type of cell, lending a stability not found in non-cellular active nematics. |

Distortion and destruction of colloidal flocks in disordered environments pp63 - 67 Alexandre Morin, Nicolas Desreumaux, Jean-Baptiste Caussin and Denis Bartolo doi:10.1038/nphys3903 Our understanding of collective animal behaviour generally assumes that flocks and herds move through homogeneous environments. Colloidal experiments suggest that flocking can be distorted or even suppressed by the introduction of disorder.

Dynamical observations of self-stabilizing stationary light pp68 - 73 J. L. Everett, G. T. Campbell, Y.-W. Cho, P. Vernaz-Gris, D.B. Higginbottom et al. doi:10.1038/nphys3901 Light propagating through a cloud of cold atoms can be slowed down by exciting a certain type of spin wave in the atomic ensemble. This stationary light could find applications in quantum technologies. |
