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.

- Bosons reach a centuryNature Physics, Published online: 16 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02598-7 This year marks the hundredth anniversary of Satyendra Nath Bose’s paper that stimulated the study of quantum statistics. We take this opportunity to celebrate the physics of bosons.
- The kernel of thermodynamicsNature Physics, Published online: 16 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02580-3 The kernel of thermodynamics
- Cool as muonsNature Physics, Published online: 16 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02571-4 The volume of muon beams in position–momentum space is too large to be used in a collider. A clear reduction in this volume has now been demonstrated, which brings particle physics closer to a practical muon collider for exploring the energy frontier.
- Petawatt pulse pushes protonsNature Physics, Published online: 15 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02559-0 Laser-driven acceleration is a promising path towards more compact machines. Now, proton beams with energies up to 150 MeV have been achieved with a repetitive petawatt laser.
- Anyons go universalNature Physics, Published online: 15 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02578-x Topological quantum computers are predicted to perform calculations by manipulating quasiparticles known as non-Abelian anyons. A type of non-Abelian anyon that supports universal quantum gates has now been simulated using superconducting qubits.
- Electronic excitations at the plasmon–molecule interfaceNature Physics, Published online: 15 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02537-6 Plasmonic excitations can enhance the interaction between a metal and molecules adsorbed onto its surface. This Review summarizes the different effects involved in this process and places them into a framework based on electron scattering.
- Terahertz spectroscopy of collective charge density wave dynamics at the atomic scaleNature Physics, Published online: 15 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02552-7 The observation of phase modes of charge density wave has been a long-standing challenge. Such low-energy phase excitations have now been seen in a transition metal dichalcogenide.
