YOUR GO-TO INTELLIGENCE RESOURCE FOR THE SCHOLARLY PUBLISHING INDUSTRY

IOP Publishing (IOPP) has published the first original research papers in its flagship journal, Reports on Progress in Physics, adding to its 90-year legacy as one of the world’s most authoritative sources of physics review content.

The first four original research articles are:

• Extracting the speed of sound in quark-gluon plasma with ultra-relativistic lead-lead collisions at the LHC.

• Symmetry-preserving quadratic Lindbladian and dissipation driven topological transitions in Gaussian states.

• Divergence beneath the Brillouin sphere and the phenomenology of prediction error in spherical harmonic series approximations of the gravitational field.

• A statistical primer on classical period-finding techniques in astronomy.

Reports on Progress in Physics sits at the pinnacle of IOPP’s extensive physics portfolio of journals and covers all areas of physics and related interdisciplinary areas extending across the condensed matter, atomic and molecular physics, quantum science, computational physics, chemical physics, biophysics, photonics, nuclear and particle physics, and astrophysics.

The journal offers an open access (OA) option, with free OA publishing for researchers from low and lower-middle-income countries. In addition, Reports on Progress in Physics is included in IOPP’s expanding program of Transformative Agreements that now cover more than 1,000 universities and research institutions around the world.

The latest issue of Reports on Progress in Physics also features an editorial in which Gevaux sets out the rationale for repositioning the journal and how it will serve the physics community into the future.

Authors publishing in Reports on Progress in Physics are not only supporting the advancement of physics in the broadest sense but also invest in the community they are a part of. All funds generated by IOP Publishing go directly to the Institute of Physics.
