From the 1st January 2020, the Comptes Rendus de l'Academie des Sciences will be published by the Centre Mersenne for Open Scientific Publishing (https://www.centre-mersenne.org). Please see NEWS below for more information. 

Starting in 2016, this journal will be published in electronic format only. Comptes rendus Physique: thematic issues oriented towards a rapid, targeted diffusion of research results. 

The Comptes rendus Physique (8 issues per year) cover all fields of Physics and Astrophysics, and propose thematic issues. Because of this format, readers find, in each issue, the presentation of a field of research which is in particularly fast development. The authors are chosen among the most active in the domain, and the issue is coordinated by an Invited Editor, guaranteeing that the results are up-to-date, and are the most significant.
The Comptes rendus Physique also publishes, preserving its historic vocation, short, original notes describing briefly an important discovery, or a new theory. These can be in either English or in French, with an abstract in both languages.
