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. Readership: Physicists, materials scientists and physical chemists in universities, industry and research institutes.

物理學進展發表權威的評論，由專家對凝聚態物理學家感興趣和重要的主題。它的目的是為有動機的讀者與基本知識的期刊領域，并旨在引出重點的審查主題從作者的角度。該雜志的范圍包括凝聚態物理和統計力學:廣義上包括與量子信息、冷原子、軟物質物理和生物物理的重疊。展望部分補充定期審查，有時由其領域的領導人發表更簡短、更具挑釁性的文章，以促進社區內的辯論。這些文章對當前感興趣的主題提出了簡明的觀點。所有的物理評論和觀點的進步都是由獨立的、匿名的專家評審委員會委托并接受同行評審的。讀者:大學、工業和研究機構的物理學家、材料科學家和物理化學家。
