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: 12 August 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02611-z Fluctuating hydrodynamics posits that thermalization in non-equilibrium systems depends on equilibrium transport coefficients. This hypothesis is now tested by exploring the emergence of fluctuations in non-equilibrium dynamics of ultracold atoms.
- Nature Physics, Published online: 08 August 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02594-x A bright, ultrashort X-ray pulse is used to transiently create and characterize warm dense copper. As the pulse intensity is increased, the opacity of copper is strongly altered. The recorded X-ray absorption spectra, substantiated by a theoretical electronic structure model, provide insight into the non-equilibrium electron dynamics during the formation of warm dense matter.
- Nature Physics, Published online: 08 August 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02605-x An atom interferometer now maintains a spatial superposition state for 70 seconds, compared to few seconds in freely falling systems. This could improve measurements of the strength of gravitational fields and quantum gravity studies.
- Nature Physics, Published online: 02 August 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02602-0 A new ferroic-like phase has been discovered in highly doped superconducting cuprates. The existence of a well-defined order parameter on the supposedly disordered side of the phase diagram challenges the accepted theoretical framework.
- Nature Physics, Published online: 02 August 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02601-1 The Fermi liquid state in highly doped superconducting cuprates is normally thought of as disordered. Now, an observation of broken mirror symmetry in that phase suggests otherwise.
- Nature Physics, Published online: 02 August 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02564-3 The pseudogap in cuprates is often linked to superconductivity. Now bulk evidence for a pseudogap is found in doped non-superconducting Sr2IrO4, revealing that pseudogaps in doped Mott insulators are not necessarily a precursor to superconductivity.
- Nature Physics, Published online: 01 August 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02584-z Quantum correlations are strong enough that classical users can verify that a device produces quantum entangled states using only the outcomes of local measurements. This self-testing approach has now been extended to verifying quantum measurements.
