Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have demonstrated strong abilities in solving diverse visual and textual reasoning tasks. However, their development in the physics domain is significantly hindered by the lack of a comprehensive benchmark. To fill this gap, we introduce OmniPhys, a large-scale benchmark for multimodal physics understanding and reasoning, covering middle school through university-level problems from Chinese Educational Corpora. OmniPhys consists of 15,246 questions and 19,850 images, accompanied by detailed annotations that support fine-grained analysis of reasoning processes and knowledge usage. Beyond conventional evaluation, OmniPhys is a benchmark that systematically evaluates multimodal outputs in the physics domain, including models' ability to generate structured physics diagrams, which constitute a fundamental component of authentic physics problem solving. Extensive evaluations reveal critical gaps in the capabilities of current MLLMs, especially in complex reasoning and visual generation. To address this, we release OmniPhys to serve as a foundational resource for advancing multimodal intelligence in physics and scientific domains. Codes and data are available at https://github.com/ECNU-RAIL/OmniPhys-EMNLP2026.
