Journal Guide

The aims of Advances in Physics: X are to demonstrate:

1. the connectivity of Physics, by which we mean the intellectual relationships between one branch of Physics and another, and
   
2. the pervasiveness of Physics, that is, the influence of Physics across (hence the “X”) the boundaries into other disciplines, including chemistry, materials science, engineering, biology and medicine.

Thus the journal will promote the centrality of Physics and physical measurement to modern science and technology, defending the discipline and revealing both its richness and its impact.

The aims of “APX” will be achieved by the Open Access, electronic publication of concise review articles, commissioned from leading experts and made available freely throughout the world.

Advances in Physics: X draws upon the rich heritage of Advances in Physics, founded by Sir Nevill Mott in 1952 as a spin-off from the Philosophical Magazine, which was itself established in 1798 and has been published by Taylor & Francis since 1822.

Aquatic Invasions is an open access, peer-reviewed international journal focusing on biological invasions in both inland and coastal water ecosystems from around the world. It was established in 2006 as initiative of the International Society of Limnology (SIL) Working Group on Aquatic Invasive Species (WGAIS) with start-up funding from the European Commission Sixth Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development Integrated Project ALARM. Aquatic Invasions provides a forum for professionals involved in research of aquatic invasive species, including a focus on the following: • Advances in species identification • Patterns of species dispersal, including range extensions with global change • Population dynamics • Ecological and evolutionary impacts • Prediction of new invasions.

Defense & Security Analysis is an independent, interdisciplinary and international journal which is mainly concerned with the field of defense theory and analysis. Whilst endeavouring to be scholarly in both content and style, it is designed to be a forum for exchange of data, ideas and methodological approaches among the professional military, their supporting bureaucracies and academic and independent researchers involved in the analysis of defense policy. A wide range of methodological approaches to defense matters will be encompassed - quantitative, qualitative and speculative. The Editors welcome contributions to Defense & Security Analysis that fall within the following subject categories: * Comparative defense policies * Defense intelligence * Defense management and command * Defense procurement and sales * Defense technology, research and development * Economics of defense * Formulation, simulation and prediction of defense issues * Historical patterns and trends concerning defense * Hypotheses, theories and critiques of defense, security and war * Internal defense and low-intensity operations * Medical and psychological dimensions of defense * Methodological approaches to defense issues * Operations research and analysis * Social and legal aspects of war, defense and armed forces * Terrorism, counter-terrorism and internal security In addition to scholarly, refereed articles, Defense & Security Analysis will include commissioned works and contributions published at the discretion of the Editors. Suggestions or proposals of possible articles and reviews are therefore welcomed. Unless the author specifies to the contrary, submitted articles will normally be evaluated, anonymously, by an independent reviewer. Also, in the tradition of scientific and professional journals, Defense & Security Analysis will have a section on Professional Notes containing ideas, hypothesis, lines of argument and enquiry, and comment. These should be between 500 and 1,000 words, will be included solely at the discretion of the Editors, and can be accepted up to 3 months before the date of publication.
