The main subject areas include: Accelerators: concepts, modelling, simulations and sources Instrumentation and hardware for accelerators: particles, synchrotron radiation, neutrons Detector physics: concepts, processes, methods, modelling and simulations Detectors, apparatus and methods for particle, astroparticle, nuclear, atomic, and molecular physics Instrumentation and methods for plasma research Methods and apparatus for astronomy and astrophysics Detectors, methods and apparatus for biomedical applications, life sciences and material research Instrumentation and techniques for medical imaging, diagnostics and therapy Instrumentation and techniques for dosimetry, monitoring and radiation damage Detectors, instrumentation and methods for non-destructive tests (NDT) Detector readout concepts, electronics and data acquisition methods Algorithms, software and data reduction methods Materials and associated technologies, etc. Engineering and technical issues.

Subject Coverage Publishing 50 issues a year, Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical is a major journal of theoretical physics reporting research on the mathematical structures that describe fundamental processes of the physical world and on the analytical, computational and numerical methods for exploring these structures. Mathematical papers should be clearly motivated by actual or potential application to physical phenomena.

Research papers in the journal are published in one of the following six sections: Statistical physics: nonequilibrium systems, computational methods and modern equilibrium theory; Biological modelling; Nonlinear physics and waves; Mathematical physics; Quantum mechanics and quantum information theory and Field theory and string theory

Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment (JSTAT) covers all aspects of statistical physics, including experimental work that impacts on the subject.

Subject coverageWith 12 issues per year, Measurement Science and Technology publishes articles on new measurement techniques and associated instrumentation. Papers submitted to MST that describe experiments must represent an advance in measurement science or measurement technique rather than the application of established experimental technique. Authors must make this novel aspect clear, bearing in mind the multidisciplinary readership of the journal. Subject coverage includes the theory, practice and application of measurement in physics, chemistry, engineering and the environmental and life sciences from inception to commercial exploitation.Publications in the journal should emphasise the novelty of reported methods and give possible applications.

Serving the multidisciplinary materials community, the journal aims to publish new research work that advances the understanding and prediction of material behaviour at scales from atomistic to macroscopic through modelling and simulation.Subject coverageModelling and/or simulation across materials science that emphasizes fundamental materials issues advancing the understanding and prediction of material behaviour. Interdisciplinary research that tackles challenging and complex materials problems where the governing phenomena may span different scales of materials behaviour, with an emphasis on the development of quantitative approaches to explain and predict experimental observations. Material processing that advances the fundamental materials science and engineering underpinning the connection between processing and properties. Covering all classes of materials, and mechanical, microstructural, electronic, chemical, biological, and optical properties.

Aimed primarily at mathematicians and physicists interested in research on nonlinear phenomena, the journal’s coverage ranges from proofs of important theorems to papers presenting ideas, conjectures and numerical or physical experiments of significant physical and mathematical interest.

Physica Scripta™ is an international journal for original research in any branch of experimental and theoretical physics. Articles will be considered in any of the following topics, and interdisciplinary topics involving physics are also welcomed:

Atomic, molecular and optical physics
Plasma physics
Condensed matter physics
Mathematical physics
Astrophysics
High energy physics
Nuclear physics
Nonlinear physics

The journal aims to increase the visibility and accessibility of research to the wider physical sciences community. Articles on topics of broad interest are encouraged and submissions in more specialist fields should endeavour to include reference to the wider context of their research in the introduction.
