The Physical Review Journals want to be a home for chemists. It is our aim to publish work on electrochemistry and energy science (batteries, supercapacitors, and photocatalysis), nanoparticles and nanotechnology, metrology for analytical chemistry, and quantum information science for computational chemistry.
A new Collection by the Physical Review journals celebrates the 50th anniversary of the discovery of asymptotic freedom in quantum chromodynamics (QCD)—the theoretical basis for the strong force of nature that binds quarks and gluons into hadrons.
Editors from Physical Review Letters, Physical Review Applied, and Physical Review Materials have gathered several recently published papers in soft matter and polymer research in an effort to illustrate the kind of papers these journals are looking for in this topic.
To mark the 243rd American Astronomical Society meeting, Physical Review Letters, Physical Review C, and Physical Review D highlighted several significant papers in astrophysics to illustrate the type of research these journals seek to publish.
In support of global efforts to address the COVID-19 pandemic, the American Physical Society (APS) has committed to making potentially relevant, peer-reviewed articles from our Physical Review journals more discoverable, accessible, and usable.
We have identified a collection of articles potentially relevant to researchers, health professionals, and others working on the COVID-19 pandemic, and are making this collection free to read for the duration of the crisis. The scope of the collection includes any articles that mention coronavirus, as well as those classified as relevant to epidemiology and epidemic spreading models. We will continue to add to the collection as additional potentially relevant articles are identified, and as new articles with potential relevance are published.
For broader information regarding all APS activities, check the Society’s COVID-19 website regularly.
APS publishes a number of journals that feature the study of biological phenomena using physical approaches and investigations into the physical principles and mechanisms by which living organisms survive, adapt, and grow. The richness of life science phenomena gives biological physics a very broad scope, from answering fundamental questions about life to advancing the biomedical sciences by developing new drugs and diagnostics equipment.
To mark the passing of Stephen Hawking, we gathered together his 55 papers in Physical Review D and Physical Review Letters. They probe the edges of space and time, from "Black holes and thermodynamics” to "Wave function of the Universe."
