Review of Scientific Instruments (RSI) publishes novel advancements in scientific instrumentation, apparatuses, techniques of experimental measurement, and related mathematical analysis. Its content includes publication of regular and review articles on instruments covering all areas of science, including physics, chemistry, and biology. RSI regularly publishes conference proceedings of two conferences: the High-Temperature Plasma Diagnostics topical conference and the International Conference on Ion Sources. Special Topic sections may also be published on new developments or on recently held workshops in instrumentation.RSI covers timely reports on instrumentation within areas of research that include the following topics: optics, atoms and molecules, spectroscopy, and photon detectors particle sources, optics and acceleration, and particle detectors nuclear physics, fusion, and plasmas microscopy and imaging condensed matter and materials chemistry biology and medicine gravity, geophysics, astronomy and astrophysics electronics, electromagnetic technology, and microwaves thermometry, thermal diffusivity, and acoustics sensors and actuators, MEMS and NEMS general instruments.

《科學(xué)儀器評論》(RSI)出版了科學(xué)儀器、儀器、實(shí)驗(yàn)測量技術(shù)和相關(guān)數(shù)學(xué)分析方面的最新進(jìn)展。它的內(nèi)容包括出版關(guān)于儀器的定期和評論文章，涵蓋科學(xué)的所有領(lǐng)域，包括物理、化學(xué)和生物學(xué)。RSI定期出版兩個會議的會議記錄:高溫等離子體診斷專題會議和國際離子源會議。專題部分也可出版關(guān)于新的發(fā)展或最近舉辦的樂器講習(xí)班。RSI涵蓋研究領(lǐng)域內(nèi)關(guān)于儀器儀表的及時報告，包括以下主題:光學(xué)、原子和分子光譜學(xué)、光子探測器粒子源、光學(xué)和加速度,核物理和粒子探測器,融合,和等離子體顯微成像凝聚態(tài)與材料化學(xué)生物學(xué)和醫(yī)學(xué)重力、地球物理學(xué)、天文學(xué)和天體物理學(xué)電子、電磁技術(shù),微波溫度測量,熱擴(kuò)散率,和聲學(xué)傳感器和致動器,MEMS和NEMS通用工具。
