Advances in Physics publishes authoritative critical reviews by experts on topics of interest and importance to condensed matter physicists. It is intended for motivated readers with a basic knowledge of the journal’s field and aims to draw out the salient points of a reviewed subject from the perspective of the author.

The journal's scope includes condensed matter physics and statistical mechanics: broadly defined to include the overlap with quantum information, cold atoms, soft matter physics and biophysics.

The Perspectives section complements the regular reviews with occasional shorter, more provocative articles by leaders in their fields in order to stimulate debate in the community. These articles present concise perspectives on topics of major current interest.

All Advances in Physics reviews and perspectives are commissioned and subject to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. If you are planning to write a review article in the subject area covered by the journal and would like to discuss its suitability for submission to the journal, please contact Nigel Balmforth at the Publisher Taylor & Francis: nigel.balmforth@tandf.co.uk
