RSS 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.

- Nature Physics, Published online: 02 December 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02695-7 Josephson junctions are expected to transition from superconducting to insulating behaviour depending on the impedance of their environment. This Schmid–Bulgadaev transition has now been observed by probing the effect of a junction on its environment.
- Nature Physics, Published online: 27 November 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02703-w Tracking ultrafast electronic changes in molecules is challenging, especially in liquids. An X-ray spectroscopy study in pyrazine now shows electronic dynamics created at conical intersections that are rapidly suppressed when the molecule is in water.
- Nature Physics, Published online: 25 November 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02681-z Quantum geometry gives rise to many fascinating phenomena in solids that go beyond Landau theory. A general framework is now introduced to measure the quantum geometric tensor in solids — a fundamental physical quantity that encodes the complete geometric information of the Bloch state.
- Nature Physics, Published online: 25 November 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02678-8 Experiments that directly probe the quantum geometric tensor in solids have not been reported. Now, the quantum metric and spin Berry curvature—dual components of the quantum geometric tensor—have been simultaneously measured in reciprocal space.
- Nature Physics, Published online: 18 November 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02676-w Experiments on cooperative radiative decay typically involve rapidly escaping photons. Collective emission dynamics have now been studied in an array of quantum emitters interacting via atomic matter waves in a novel regime of slow propagation.
- Nature Physics, Published online: 14 November 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02704-9 Universal dynamics exposed by interaction quenches
- Nature Physics, Published online: 13 November 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02670-2 Filamentary eruptions from the plasma edge in fusion devices pose a critical threat to their integrity. The identification of magnetic islands at the top of the edge explains how these eruptions are suppressed by resonant magnetic perturbations.
- Nature Physics, Published online: 13 November 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02693-9 Experimental evidence of nematic-fluctuation-mediated superconductivity has been observed in an iron-based superconductor near the quantum critical point.
