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.

  1. Rotation through sound
    Nature Physics, Published online: 30 July 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03384-3 Detecting quantized circulation in strongly correlated matter is challenging. Now it has been shown that phononic interferometry can reveal the quantized angular momentum of a strongly interacting rotating superfluid.
  2. Standards in space
    Nature Physics, Published online: 29 July 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03355-8 Separating long-term trends in the Earth system from instrumental drift is challenging. Yolanda Shea, Peter Pilewskie, and Rajendra Bhatt describe the push for gold-standard references in space.
  3. Superconductivity under pressure in a van der Waals heavy-fermion metal
    Nature Physics, Published online: 28 July 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03392-3 CeSiI is a two-dimensional heavy-fermion metal. Now, the interplay between antiferromagnetism, Kondo coherence and unconventional superconductivity is observed by applying pressure to this material.
  4. Conductance measurements cannot distinguish crossed Andreev reflection from elastic co-tunnelling in normal–superconductor–normal junctions
    Nature Physics, Published online: 28 July 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03377-2 Conductance measurements cannot distinguish crossed Andreev reflection from elastic co-tunnelling in normal–superconductor–normal junctions
  5. Superconductivity with a squeeze
    Nature Physics, Published online: 28 July 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03393-2 Heavy-fermion superconductivity has now been observed under pressure in the van der Waals metal CeSiI. This material will provide a new platform for studying the interplay of dimensionality and Kondo physics.
  6. Reply to: Conductance measurements cannot distinguish crossed Andreev reflection from elastic co-tunnelling in normal–superconductor–normal junctions
    Nature Physics, Published online: 28 July 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03376-3 Reply to: Conductance measurements cannot distinguish crossed Andreev reflection from elastic co-tunnelling in normal–superconductor–normal junctions
  7. Topological phase transitions and mixed-state order in a Hubbard quantum simulator
    Nature Physics, Published online: 27 July 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03381-6 Topological phases can be hard to distinguish with local measurements. Now, a transition between two such phases has been revealed in ultracold erbium atoms, and shown to disappear when two systems are stacked or information about disorder is lost.
  8. Dynamics of supracellular keratin bundling and nuclear uncaging in stretched epithelia
    Nature Physics, Published online: 27 July 2026; doi:10.1038/s41567-026-03371-8 Keratin intermediate filaments form a cage around the nucleus to protect it from stress. Now it is shown that under large deformations the filaments bundle and ultimately release the nucleus from its cage.
