Physics Today magazine, created in 1948, is the membership journal of The American Institute of Physics. An academic discipline or field of study is a branch of Knowledge which is taught or Researched at the college or university level Physics (Greek Physis - φύσις in everyday terms is the Science of Matter and its motion. The American Institute of Physics (AIP is an international body representing Physicists and publishing physics related journals The United States of America —commonly referred to as the Year 1948 ( MCMXLVIII) was a Leap year starting on Thursday (link will display the 1948 calendar of the Gregorian calendar. An International Standard Serial Number ( ISSN) is a unique eight-digit number used to identify a print or electronic Periodical publication. The American Institute of Physics (AIP is an international body representing Physicists and publishing physics related journals It is provided to 130,000 members of twelve physics societies, including the American Physical Society. The American Physical Society was founded in 1899 and is the World 's second largest organization of physicists behind the Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft. Over the last 60 years many famous physicists have written for the magazine, including Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr, and Richard Feynman. Albert Einstein ( German: ˈalbɐt ˈaɪ̯nʃtaɪ̯n; English: ˈælbɝt ˈaɪnstaɪn (14 March 1879 – 18 April 1955 was a German -born theoretical Niels Henrik David Bohr (nels ˈb̥oɐ̯ˀ in Danish 7 October 1885 – 18 November 1962 was a Danish Physicist who made fundamental contributions to understanding Richard Phillips Feynman (ˈfaɪnmən May 11 1918 – February 15 1988 was an American Physicist known for the Path integral formulation of quantum
Although its content is scientifically rigorous and up to date, it is not a true scholarly journal in the sense of being a primary vehicle for communicating new results. An academic journal is a peer-reviewed Periodical in which scholarship relating to a particular Academic discipline is published Rather, it is more of a hybrid magazine that informs readers about important developments in the form of overview articles written by experts, shorter review articles written internally by staff, and also discusses the latest issues and events of importance to the science community such as science politics. The physics community's main vessel for new results is the Physical Review suite of scientific journals published by the American Physical Society and Applied Physics Letters published by the American Institute of Physics. Physical Review (frequently abbreviated as Phys Rev) is one of the oldest and most-respected Scientific journals publishing research on all aspects of The American Physical Society was founded in 1899 and is the World 's second largest organization of physicists behind the Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft. Applied Physics Letters is a weekly Peer-reviewed Scientific journal published by the American Institute of Physics devoted to the publication of new experimental The American Institute of Physics (AIP is an international body representing Physicists and publishing physics related journals
The magazine provides a historical resource of events associated to physics, including debunking the physics behind the so-called Star Wars program of the 1980s, and the state of physics in China and the Soviet Union during the 1950s and 70s. The Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI was a proposal by US President Ronald Reagan on March 23, 1983 to use ground and space-based systems to protect
Physics Today Online presents the magazine's digital edition and in addition, extends the magazine's coverage of the physical sciences with links to related articles and news stories from around the web. It also features an online research center called research today, a tool that brings together the articles from a growing number of online publishing platforms including Scitation and arXiv, a community job board and events calender. The arXiv ( pronounced " Archive " as if the "X" were the Greek letter Chi, χ is an Archive for electronic
