Nature Physics
Nature Physics offers news and reviews alongside top-quality research papers in a monthly publication, covering the entire spectrum of physics. Physics addresses the properties and interactions of matter and energy, and plays a key role in the development of a broad range of technologies. To reflect this, Nature Physics covers all areas of pure and applied physics research. The journal focuses on core physics disciplines, but is also open to a broad range of topics whose central theme falls within the bounds of physics.

Electrons bunch up in quantum light
Nature Physics, Published online: 15 April 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02473-5
When photons impinge on a material, free electrons can be created by the photoelectric effect. The emitted electron current usually fluctuates with Poisson statistics, but if squeezed quantum light is applied, the electrons bunch up.

Distinct elastic properties and their origins in glasses and gels
Nature Physics, Published online: 12 April 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02456-6
As amorphous solids, glasses and gels are similar, but the origins of their different elastic properties are unclear. Simulations now suggest differing free-energy-minimizing pathways: structural ordering for glasses and interface reduction for gels.

Nonlinearity-induced topological phase transition characterized by the nonlinear Chern number
Nature Physics, Published online: 11 April 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02451-x
Linear topological systems can be characterized using invariants such as the Chern number. This concept can be extended to the nonlinear regime, giving rise to nonlinearity-induced topological phase transitions.

Emergence of large-scale mechanical spiral waves in bacterial living matter
Nature Physics, Published online: 04 April 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02457-5
The occurrence of propagating spiral waves in multicellular organisms is associated with key biological functions. Now this type of wave has also been observed in dense bacterial populations, probably resulting from non-reciprocal cell–cell interactions.

Leggett modes in a Dirac semimetal
Nature Physics, Published online: 04 April 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02412-4
Leggett modes can occur when superconductivity arises in more than one band in a material and represent oscillation of the relative phases of the two superconducting condensates. Now, this mode is observed in Cd3As2, a Dirac semimetal.
