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. Too late to be careless
    Nature Physics, Published online: 14 July 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02967-w Too late to be careless
  2. Ultrafast Pockels laser
    Nature Physics, Published online: 14 July 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02978-7 Ultrafast Pockels laser
  3. Take a tour of telescopes or tokamaks
    Nature Physics, Published online: 14 July 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02981-y It’s never too early to plan for a regular dose of physics during your vacation. If you are looking for inspiration, we have some hidden physics gems for you.
  4. Measurement of phonon angular momentum
    Nature Physics, Published online: 11 July 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02952-3 Theory predicts that phonons—quanta of lattice vibrations—can carry finite angular momentum and thus influence physical properties of materials. Now phonons with angular momentum have been seen in tellurium with a chiral crystal structure.
  5. Intertwined orders in a quantum material
    Nature Physics, Published online: 11 July 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02942-5 Symmetry-protected topological orders are often in competition with electronic correlations that tend to induce orders with broken symmetry. Now, a quantum material is shown to exhibit correlation-driven tuneable excitonic instabilities intertwined with symmetry-protected topological orders.
  6. Topological excitonic insulator with tunable momentum order
    Nature Physics, Published online: 11 July 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02917-6 Experimental systems in which non-trivial topology is driven by spontaneous symmetry breaking are rare. Now, topological gaps resulting from two excitonic condensates have been demonstrated in a three-dimensional material.
  7. First-principles diagrammatic Monte Carlo for electron–phonon interactions and polaron
    Nature Physics, Published online: 10 July 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02954-1 Diagrammatic Monte Carlo calculations accurately describe polarons in different theoretical models. Now, integrating this with accurate first-principles calculations can describe the ground-state and dynamic properties of polarons in real materials.
  8. QED tests in strong fields
    Nature Physics, Published online: 09 July 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02959-w High-precision measurement of the hyperfine splitting in a radioactive isotope of hydrogen-like bismuth unlocks new possibilities for testing quantum electrodynamics in extreme magnetic fields and for probing nuclear structure.
