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.

- Women scientists through the ages
- Earth’s position in the UniverseNature Physics, Published online: 13 June 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02915-8 From monitoring sea-level changes at the millimetre-level to navigating through the streets of Gothenburg, Karine Le Bail discusses the need for precise positioning within well-defined 3D terrestrial and celestial reference frames.
- Triple jump forwardNature Physics, Published online: 13 June 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02958-x This month, we publish three articles reporting breakthroughs in different areas of quasicrystal research.
- Student interactions with generative AINature Physics, Published online: 13 June 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02932-7 Students are turning to generative AI chatbots like ChatGPT to support their physics learning. Here, I examine one student’s interactions with ChatGPT on an exam recuperation assignment and the student’s reflections on the process.
- Science diplomacy is in troubleNature Physics, Published online: 12 June 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02911-y Geopolitical tensions pose a threat to international collaborations and the democratization of science.
- Ultrasensitive single-ion electrometry in a magnetic field gradientNature Physics, Published online: 11 June 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02887-9 Trapped ions are promising for electrometry but limited by their weak intrinsic spin coupling to electric fields. Now it is shown that using a magnetic field gradient enhances sensitivity and enables precise measurements across subhertz to kilohertz frequencies.
- Spin-selective magneto-conductivity in WSe<sub>2</sub>Nature Physics, Published online: 09 June 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02918-5 Mechanisms for generating spin-polarized currents may be helpful for applications. Now one such mechanism that uses the unusual Landau-level spectrum of WSe2 under a strong magnetic field is demonstrated.
- The positron arm of a plasma-based linear colliderNature Physics, Published online: 06 June 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02910-z The status of plasma-based acceleration of electrons and positrons is discussed, with a focus on developing the positron arm of a plasma-based electron–positron linear collider.
