STM publisher Elsevier has announced the launch of a new open access journal Reviews in Physics.
Reviews in Physics claims to be the first open access journal publishing only review papers in all areas of (applied) physics. The journal provides a platform for researchers who wish to summarise a field of physics research and share this work globally and as widely as possible.
While in most review journals authors must be invited to write a review, Reviews in Physics welcomes all researchers to proactively submit their paper.
Handling editors of the journal are: Dr. Tommaso Dorigo, Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare, Padova, Italy and Professor Nai-Chang Yeh, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, USA. They are joined by an Advisory Board of experienced physicists and representatives of leading physics departments around the world.
