Archived Journals

As a Society and publisher dedicated to supporting the physics enterprise, APS made an early commitment to ensure all of the material we publish is available online, including the portion that was not “born digital.” The archived titles below are an expression of that ongoing commitment. 

Physical Review

HYBRID ACCESS
1893-1969
Print ISSN: 0031-899X
Online ISSN: 1536-6065

Physical Review was established in 1893 and published through 1969. In 1970 the original Physical Review was split into four journals, currently titled: Physical Review A, Physical Review B, Physical Review C, and Physical Review D. When APS took over publication of Physical Review in 1913, the volume number sequence was restarted. APS distinguishes the two series on our platform: Series I, 1893-1912; and Series II, 1913-1969. Because the U.S. Library of Congress considers both series to comprise a single serial publication, they share the same ISSNs.

The Physics Archive

Single Purchase

Physics Physique Fizika

HYBRID ACCESS
1964-1968
ISSN: 0554-128X

As a service to the community, APS has made the small journal “Physics Physique физика” freely available online. The journal published fewer than 100 articles in four volumes, and we are proud to make this hard to find content readily available online.
