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.

- Schrödinger’s workforceNature Physics, Published online: 13 June 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02570-5 Schrödinger’s workforce
- Experimental quantum computational chemistry with optimized unitary coupled cluster ansatzNature Physics, Published online: 11 June 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02530-z The application of quantum computing to computational chemistry faces various experimental and theoretical challenges. Now, a quantum simulation on a noisy quantum device has achieved chemical accuracy for small H2 and LiH molecules.
- Coherence limits in lattice atom interferometry at the one-minute scaleNature Physics, Published online: 11 June 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02518-9 Applications of atom interferometry require sufficiently long coherence times. Now, confining atoms in an optical lattice shows that the decoherence rate slows down markedly at hold times that exceed tens of seconds.
- The importance of spatial heterogeneity in disease transmissionNature Physics, Published online: 11 June 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02512-1 Spatial heterogeneity in disease transmission rates and in mixing patterns between regions makes predicting epidemic trajectories hard. Quantifying the mixing rates within and between spatial regions can improve predictions.
- Real-space detection and manipulation of topological edge modes with ultracold atomsNature Physics, Published online: 10 June 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02506-z The observation of edge modes in topological systems is challenging because precise control over the sample and occupied states is required. An experiment with atoms in a driven lattice now shows how edge modes with programmable potentials can be realized.
- Continuity equation for the flow of Fisher information in wave scatteringNature Physics, Published online: 10 June 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02519-8 Remote detection protocols use waves scattering off a target, but a formal description of how waves acquire and transmit information about objects has been lacking. The density and flux of Fisher information now provide a way to understand this process.
- High-temperature superconductivity with zero resistance and strange-metal behaviour in La<sub>3</sub>Ni<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7−<i>δ</i></sub>Nature Physics, Published online: 06 June 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02515-y Some features resembling superconductivity at high temperature have been seen under pressure in La3Ni2O7, but a transition to a zero-resistance state has not been observed. Now transport studies demonstrate this transition, along with strange metallicity.
- Boundary modes of a charge density wave state in a topological materialNature Physics, Published online: 07 June 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02469-1 Topological boundary modes within charge-ordered states have not yet been observed experimentally. Now an in-gap boundary mode, stemming solely from the charge order, is visualized in the topological material Ta2Se8I.
