5 Year impact factor: 9.7
Impact factor: 11.7

New Astronomy Reviews publishes review articles in all fields of astronomy and astrophysics, covering solar physics, solar system, planetary systems, stellar, galactic, extragalactic, and cosmology papers in any wavelengths from radio to gamma-ray. Theoretical, observational, and instrumental papers are welcomed. New Astronomy Reviews is also open for proposals covering interdisciplinary and emerging topics such as astrobiology, astroparticle physics, and astrochemistry. This international review journal is written for a broad audience of professional astronomers and astrophysicists.In addition to regular reviews, this journal also welcomes focus reviews. These are shorter papers reviewing the recent results in a field where important advancements have been made in the past few years. It should present only recent results, without attempting a complete review of the topic. Focus reviews are intended to present an agile compendium of recent advancements and their discussion.

Physics Reports

ISSN: 0370-1573
5 Year impact factor: 25.7
Impact factor: 23.9

A Review Section of Physics LettersThe journal Physics Reports publishes timely reviews which are more extensive than just literature surveys but normally less than a full monograph. Each report deals with one specific subject and is generally published in a separate volume. These reviews are specialist in nature but contain enough introductory material to make the main points intelligible to a non-specialist. The reader will not only be able to distinguish important developments and trends in physics but will also find a sufficient number of references to the original literature.Starting in 2025, Physics Reports will inaugurate a new "Rapid Reviews” section. Rapid Reviews are intended to be shorter reviews, which can be completed more quickly (on order three months) than regular reviews, on exciting new subjects. They are intended to reach a broader audience but go into less technical detail than a regular Physics Reports review. The target length is on order 20 pages (as opposed to regular reviews, which are intended to be more than 50 journal pages) and the reviews are intended to allow more in the way of editorializing than regular articles, which are intended to be more balanced, complete, and pedagogical. We aim to publish one such Rapid Review per month.The topics covered by the journal include but are not limited to:Astrophysics and Cosmology,Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics,Biological Physics,Condensed Matter Physics,High Energy Physics,Nanoscience,Non-Linear Dynamics and Complex Systems,Nuclear Physics and Hadronic Physics,Plasma Physics,Statistical Physics.Submission of articles to Physics Reports is by invitation only; unsolicited submissions cannot be accepted. Should you feel that you have a topic suitable for publication in one of the sections in this journal, please contact our Editorial Office [email protected] , with a proposal of no more than 1000 words. You must specify which Editor should review your proposal (see Editorial Board).

Physics of the Dark Universe

ISSN: 2212-6864
5 Year impact factor: 4.7
Impact factor: 5

Physics of the Dark Universe is a hybrid journal which aims to provide a flexible platform for the publication of peer reviewed articles in various formats within the fields of Dark Matter, Dark Energy, Early Universe, Gravitational waves and Neutrinos, covering all theoretical, experimental and phenomenological aspects. The Journal welcomes submissions for articles in the following sections: Dark Matter: Models for the cosmological dark matter, including, but not limited to, particle-like, wave-like, black holes; Experimental and observational probes Dark Energy: Models and theoretical scenarios related to the late-time cosmic acceleration; Observations and experimental results; Forecast and design of new experiments Early Universe: Models and observational tests of the pre-recombination Universe, including but not limited to inflation Early universe probes of fundamental physics Dark Messengers: Multiwavelength/multi messenger astrophysics, including but not limited to: Gravitational waves; Cosmic rays; Dark-sector particles and fields; Black hole-related observations (e.g. black hole shadows) Software Description and Manuals can also be published, if the software is proved to have scientific interest in the understanding of Dark Matter and Dark Energy. The paper can be enriched with (part of) the code itself, or the software and code can be separately published in the Open Access journal SoftwareX (https://www.journals.elsevier.com/softwarex/), which hosts software in a curated GitHub Repository. The journal gives authors a platform to showcase their best research in a flexible journal that supports a variety of peer-reviewed article types: short communications, full length articles, letters, review articles, reports, selected articles from conferences (conference proceedings), workshops, invited perspectives, editor's choice, white papers of new experiments and special issues. For more information about Special issues publication please contact our Content Acquisition Specialist and Publisher. Note: Please note that for submissions on modified theories of gravity and black hole thermodynamics, we will only consider for peer review those deemed of exceptional impact, with novel, relevant, and impactful results. These restrictions apply in particular to f()-type models of gravity, dynamical systems analyses of modified gravity models, and cosmological tests of modified gravity models based only data sensitive to the background expansion (as opposed to perturbations).

Radiation Measurements

ISSN: 1350-4487
5 Year impact factor: 1.5
Impact factor: 1.6

Radiation Measurements provides a forum for the presentation of the latest developments in the broad field of ionizing radiation detection and measurement. The journal publishes original papers on both fundamental and applied research.The journal seeks to publish papers that present advances in the following areas: spontaneous and stimulated luminescence (including scintillating materials, thermoluminescence, and optically stimulated luminescence); electron spin resonance of natural and synthetic materials; the physics, design and performance of radiation measurements (including computational modelling such as electronic transport simulations); the novel basic aspects of radiation measurement in medical physics. Studies of energy-transfer phenomena, track physics and microdosimetry are also of interest to the journal.Applications relevant to the journal, particularly where they present novel detection techniques, novel analytical approaches or novel materials, include: personal dosimetry (including dosimetric quantities, active/electronic and passive monitoring techniques for photon, neutron and charged-particle exposures); environmental dosimetry (including methodological advances and predictive models related to radon); cosmic and high-energy radiation measurements (including dosimetry, space radiation effects, and single event upsets); dosimetry-based archaeological and Quaternary dating; dosimetry-based approaches to thermochronometry; accident and retrospective dosimetry (including activation detectors), and dosimetry and measurements related to medical applications. Generally excluded are topics related to dosimetry and environmental radioactivity for risk assessment, particularly using standard and well-established techniques, where the emphasis is on the results of the measurements rather than on the measurement techniques.Review articles are periodically solicited by the Editors.The journal aims to publish papers containing substantial novelty and scientific impact. The Editors reserve the rights to reject, with or without external review, papers that do not meet these criteria. Please note that rejected papers will not be considered when resubmitted in any form, or to an alternative Editor.
