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.

Cells play tug-of-war to start moving collectively
Nature Physics, Published online: 08 January 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-023-02314-x
Orderly or coherent multicellular flows are fundamental in biology, but their triggers are not understood. In epithelial tissues, the tug-of-war between cells is now shown to lead to intrinsic asymmetric distributions in cell polarities that drive such flows.

Bipolarity of large anomalous Nernst effect in Weyl magnet-based alloy films
Nature Physics, Published online: 08 January 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-023-02293-z
The key to enhance the output of a thermoelectric device is to be able to regulate the thermoelectric voltage generation. Topological magnet Co3Sn2S2-based devices show the way to achieve that goal.

Spontaneous rotations in epithelia as an interplay between cell polarity and boundaries
Nature Physics, Published online: 08 January 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-023-02295-x
Coherent motion of cells plays an important role in morphogenesis. Experiments with cellular rings, supported by numerical simulations, suggest that cell polarity and acto-myosin cables are important factors in the onset of coherence.
