Physics Letters

Physics Letters is a weekly published by Elsevier (Amsterdam ) physics journal with peer review. It was founded in 1962 as the European counterpart to the U.S. Physical Review Letters for the rapid publication of research results. The essays are shorter in focus and only a few pages long, detailed versions appear in other journals such as Physical Review frequently later. The journal is published in two series:

• Physics Letters A: Solid State Physics ( Condensed matter physics ), theoretical and mathematical physics and numerical physics ( computational physics ), statistical physics, nonlinear phenomena, atomic physics, molecular physics, plasma physics, hydrodynamics, optics, nanosciences, Biological Physics, Fundamentals of Physics and Interdisciplinary Research

• Physics Letters B: Nuclear Physics, High Energy Physics, Astrophysics

Similar Reviews of Modern Physics in Physical Review there is also a special journal for review articles, the Physics Reports founded in 1971.
