Journal Guide

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.

Reports on Mathematical Physics publishes papers in theoretical physics which present a rigorous mathematical approach to problems of quantum and classical mechanics and field theories, relativity and gravitation, statistical physics and mathematical foundations of physical theories. Papers using modern methods of functional analysis, probability theory, differential geometry, algebra and mathematical logic are preferred.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Reviews in Mathematical Physics fills the need for a review journal in the field, but also accepts original research papers of high quality. The review papers - introductory and survey papers - are of relevance not only to mathematical physicists, but also to mathematicians and theoretical physicists interested in interdisciplinary topics. Original research papers are not subject to page limitations provided they are of importance to this readership. It is desirable that such papers have an expository part understandable to a wider readership than experts. Papers with the character of a scientific letter are usually not suitable for RMP.

The peer-reviewed Russian Journal of Mathematical Physics addresses a broad range of topics, including functional analysis, linear and partial differential equations, algebras, modern differential and algebraic geometry and topology, representations of Lie groups, calculus of variations, asymptotic methods, random process theory, dynamical systems, and control theory.The journal presents mainly original papers with full proof, but also publishes brief communications and state-of-the-art reviews. In addition to purely mathematical papers, the journal is hospitable to theses with less rigorous, or 'physical', levels of proof, which are sometimes useful and lead to major advances in science, as well as to analyses based on the heuristic or speculative approaches. Recently-declassified classic papers will also finally see the light of day.The journal is international in scope, and invites papers in English from mathematical physicists everywhere.

SIGMA is a refereed online open access journal for publication of papers in the following areas:*Geometrical methods in mathematical physics*Lie theory and differential equations*Classical and quantum integrable systems*Dynamical systems and chaos*Exactly and quasi-exactly solvable models*Lie groups and algebras, representation theory*Orthogonal polynomials and special functions*Quantum algebras, quantum groups and noncommutative geometry*Supersymmetry and supergravity, strings and branes*Cosmology and quantum gravity.

Theoretical and Mathematical Physics covers quantum field theory and theory of elementary particles, fundamental problems of nuclear physics, many-body problems and statistical physics, nonrelativistic quantum mechanics, and basic problems of gravitation theory. Articles report on current developments in theoretical physics as well as related mathematical problems. Theoretical and Mathematical Physics is published simultaneously with the peer-reviewed Russian edition, Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, a publication of the Division of Mathematics of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

With emphasis on fundamental studies, this unique journal invites articles on neutral-particle transport, kinetic theory, radiative transfer, charged-particle transport, macroscopic transport phenomena, and novel computational methods as well as both applications of these subjects and related mathematical results such as existence and uniqueness theorems. In addition, the journal encourages articles on uncertainty quantification related to these fields. Offering a range of information and research methodologies unavailable elsewhere, Transport Theory and Statistical Physics brings together closely related mathematical concepts and techniques to encourage a productive, interdisciplinary exchange of ideas.
