I feel like someone has asked this some time in the past here, but I couldn't find it so I guess I'm asking again.
What Physics/Math Magazines/Journals do you guys read on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis?
I'm currently a college freshman and I really want to get involved in the physics and math community and what better to start off than to start reading daily news about them? I'm currently subscribed to APS. What others are you guys in?

Martha Stewart and Ladies Home Journal. This way you will be able to take care of yourself while you get your education. Martha has a cooking magazine too that is very good. It's small and you can carry it to the market with you. Good luck in your studies.

it really depends on "where you're at" tho. maybe reading Nature is more someone else's speed.

I highly recommend reading a variety of physics and math magazines/journals to stay updated on the latest research and developments in these fields. Some popular options include Physics Today, Scientific American, and Nature Physics. Additionally, depending on your specific interests, you may want to consider subscribing to specialized journals such as Physical Review Letters, Journal of Mathematical Physics, or Annals of Mathematics.

In terms of frequency, it is important to stay updated on a regular basis, whether it be daily, weekly, or monthly. This will help you stay current with the ever-evolving world of physics and math.

In addition to reading journals and magazines, I also suggest attending conferences, seminars, and workshops to further immerse yourself in the community and network with other scientists. This will provide valuable opportunities for learning and collaboration.

Overall, it's great that you are looking to get involved in the physics and math community early on in your academic career. Keep up the enthusiasm and curiosity, and continue to explore various sources of information to expand your knowledge and understanding in these fields. Best of luck in your endeavors!
