Bold font weight for LaTeX axes label in matplotlib

by

Unfortunately you can’t bold symbols using the bold font, see this question on tex.stackexchange.

As the answer suggests, you could use \boldsymbol to bold phi:

r'$\boldsymbol{\phi}$'

You’ll need to load amsmath into the TeX preamble:

matplotlib.rc('text', usetex=True)
matplotlib.rcParams['text.latex.preamble']=[r"\usepackage{amsmath}"]
