Phase Transitions

期刊简介：Phase Transitions is the only journal devoted exclusively to this important subject. It provides a focus for papers on most aspects of phase transitions in condensed matter. Although emphasis is placed primarily on experimental work, theoretical papers are welcome if they have some bearing on experimental results. The areas of interest include:-structural phase transitions (ferroelectric, ferroelastic, multiferroic, order-disorder, Jahn-Teller, etc.) under a range of external parameters (temperature, pressure, strain, electric/magnetic fields, etc.)-geophysical phase transitions-metal-insulator phase transitions-superconducting and superfluid transitions-magnetic phase transitions-critical phenomena and physical properties at phase transitions-liquid crystals-technological applications of phase transitions-quantum phase transitions Phase Transitions publishes both research papers and invited articles devoted to special topics. Major review papers are particularly welcome. A further emphasis of the journal is the publication of a selected number of small workshops, which are at the forefront of their field.

【译文】《相变》是唯一一本专注于这一重要主题的期刊。它为凝聚态物质相变的大部分方面的论文提供了一个焦点。虽然主要强调实验工作，但如果理论论文与实验结果有些关联，也欢迎接受。感兴趣的研究领域包括：在外部参数（温度、压力、应变、电/磁场等）下的结构相变（铁电、铁弹、多铁性、有序-无序、Jahn-Teller等）- 地球物理相变- 金属-绝缘体相变- 超导和超流相变- 磁相变- 相变处的临界现象和物理性质- 液晶- 相变的技术应用- 量子相变。相变期刊发表研究论文和专门主题的特邀文章。特别欢迎重要的综述论文。该期刊还特别强调发表少量前沿领域的小型研讨会。
