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. Topology shapes dynamics of higher-order networks
    Nature Physics, Published online: 19 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02757-w Higher-order interactions reveal new aspects of the interplay between topology and dynamics in complex systems. This Perspective describes the emerging field of higher-order topological dynamics and discusses the open research questions in the area.
  2. Wideband electric field quantum sensing via motional Raman transitions
    Nature Physics, Published online: 18 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02753-0 The narrow frequency response of quantum harmonic oscillators typically limits their application in radiofrequency electric field detection. Now motional Raman transitions in trapped ions are shown to enable wideband, high-precision radiofrequency field sensing.
  3. Author Correction: Magnetic flux trapping in hydrogen-rich high-temperature superconductors
    Nature Physics, Published online: 18 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02823-x Author Correction: Magnetic flux trapping in hydrogen-rich high-temperature superconductors
  4. Local minima in quantum systems
    Nature Physics, Published online: 18 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02781-4 In general, it is difficult to identify the global energy minimum of a many-body system. Now, it has been shown that finding even local minima is difficult classically but efficiently achievable with a quantum computer.
  5. Author Correction: Incommensurability enabled quasi-fractal order in 1D narrow-band moiré systems
    Nature Physics, Published online: 17 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02824-w Author Correction: Incommensurability enabled quasi-fractal order in 1D narrow-band moiré systems
  6. Pressure-enhanced splitting of density wave transitions in La<sub>3</sub>Ni<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7–<i>δ</i></sub>
    Nature Physics, Published online: 17 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02754-z The density wave transition in a superconducting nickelate is shown to split when hydrostatic pressure is applied, indicating that it is composed of both a spin density wave and another form of ordered state.
  7. Magnetic order sets the stage
    Nature Physics, Published online: 17 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02772-x High-temperature superconductivity has been found in a nickelate material under pressure, but the underlying state is unclear. Muons now show that the material hosts distinct phases that evolve differently with increasing pressure.
  8. Coulomb interactions and migrating Dirac cones imaged by local quantum oscillations in twisted graphene
    Nature Physics, Published online: 14 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-02786-z Our understanding of the phase diagram of twisted graphene structures is incomplete. Now, twisted trilayer graphene is examined using a technique that locally images quantum oscillations and shows that a nematic semimetal is favoured at low density.
