Nature Energy: Call for Papers
Launching in January 2016, Nature Energy is now open for submissions and inviting high-quality research from across the natural and social sciences. The journal will be dedicated to exploring all aspects of the on-going discussion of energy provision; from the generation and storage of energy, to its distribution and management, the needs and demands of the different actors, and the impacts that energy technologies and policies have on societies.
Submit your next research paper to the journal. | | | |

Photonics in cardiovascular medicine pp626 - 629 Gijs van Soest, Evelyn Regar and Antonius F. W. van der Steen doi:10.1038/nphoton.2015.177 The use of photonics technology is bringing new capabilities and insights to cardiovascular medicine. Intracoronary imaging and sensing, laser ablation and optical pacing are just some of the functions being explored to help diagnose and treat conditions of the heart and arteries. |

Advances in quantum teleportation pp641 - 652 S. Pirandola, J. Eisert, C. Weedbrook, A. Furusawa and S. L. Braunstein doi:10.1038/nphoton.2015.154 This review covers state-of-the-art quantum teleportation technologies, from photonic qubits and optical modes to atomic ensembles, trapped atoms and solid-state systems. Open issues and potential future implementations are also discussed. |

Multi-dimensional single-spin nano-optomechanics with a levitated nanodiamond pp653 - 657 Levi P. Neukirch, Eva von Haartman, Jessica M. Rosenholm and A. Nick Vamivakas doi:10.1038/nphoton.2015.162 A hybrid nano-optomechanical system — a nanodiamond levitated in an optical dipole trap that contains a single nitrogen vacancy centre — shows the ability to simultaneously control multidimensional optical, phononic and spin degrees of freedom.

Direct observation of ultraslow hyperbolic polariton propagation with negative phase velocity pp674 - 678 Edward Yoxall, Martin Schnell, Alexey Y. Nikitin, Oihana Txoperena, Achim Woessner et al. doi:10.1038/nphoton.2015.166 Time-domain interferometry and near-field scanning microscopy are used to investigate infrared phonon polaritons exhibiting hyperbolic dispersion. Negative phase velocity and group velocity as small as 0.002c are confirmed.
