Physics Reports

期刊简介：Physics Reports keeps the active physicist up-to-date on developments in a wide range of topics by publishing timely reviews which are more extensive than just literature surveys but normally less than a full monograph. Each report deals with one specific subject and is generally published in a separate volume. These reviews are specialist in nature but contain enough introductory material to make the main points intelligible to a non-specialist. The reader will not only be able to distinguish important developments and trends in physics but will also find a sufficient number of references to the original literature.The Editors of Physics Reports are specialized in the areas: Astrophysics and Cosmology; Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics; Biological Physics; Condensed Matter Physics; High Energy Physics; Nanoscience; Non-Linear Dynamics and Complex Systems; Nuclear Physics and Hadronic Physics; Plasma Physics; and Statistical Physics. Many articles published in Physics Reports have set a standard in their fields.

【译文】《物理学报告》通过发表及时且内容广泛的综述文章，使活跃的物理学家能够了解众多主题的最新进展。这些综述文章不仅超越了文献综述的范畴，但通常又不如完整专著那样详尽。每篇报告都针对一个特定主题，通常以独立卷册的形式出版。这些综述文章具有专业性，但同时也包含足够的入门材料，使非专业人士也能理解主要观点。读者不仅能够区分物理学中的重要发展和趋势，还能找到足够多的参考文献，以便查阅原始文献。物理学报告的编辑们在以下领域具有专业知识：天体物理学和宇宙学；原子、分子和光学物理学；生物物理学；凝聚态物理学；高能物理学；纳米科学；非线性动力学和复杂系统；核物理学和强子物理学；等离子体物理学；以及统计物理学。发表在物理学报告中的许多文章在其领域内都树立了标准。
