Physical Review Fluids is a trusted journal for significant developments in fluid dynamics. It welcomes both traditional and novel research topics, including bio-related fluid dynamics, micro and nanoscale flows, fluid mechanics of complex fluids and soft materials, and geophysical and environmental flows.

Physical Review Letters (PRL) is the premier APS journal for current research, providing rapid publication of short reports of important fundamental research in all fields of physics. PRL provides its diverse readership with weekly coverage of major advances in physics and cross-disciplinary developments.

Physical Review Materials is a trusted journal for significant developments in materials research. It publishes multidisciplinary research across materials science, physics, chemistry and engineering.

Physical Review Physics Education Research is a trusted open access journal for significant experimental and theoretical research related to the teaching and learning of physics and astronomy.

Physical Review Research is a trusted and multidisciplinary open access journal reporting significant developments in all areas of science with a connection to physics.

Physical Review X is the world's leading open access journal for cutting-edge research across physics and adjacent fields. A premier venue among APS journals, the journal is highly selective with a diverse readership and provides a personalized experience for authors and referees.

Physical Therapy (PTJ) engages and inspires an international readership on topics related to physical therapy. As the leading international journal for research in physical therapy and related fields, PTJ publishes innovative and highly relevant content for both clinicians and scientists and uses a variety of interactive approaches to communicate that content, with the expressed purpose of improving patient care.Established in 1921, PTJ has a total circulation of approximately 77,000. With an impact factor of 2.645, PTJ ranks #1 among all physical therapy journals worldwide and #3 among all rehabilitation journals. The mean time from submission to first decision is 50 days. Time from acceptance to publication online is 2 months or less and from acceptance to publication in print 5 months or less. The acceptance rate is 30%.

Physical Therapy Reviews is an international journal which aims to publish contemporary reviews, discussion papers and editorials within physical therapy, and in those basic and clinical sciences which are the basis of physical therapy. The journal is aimed at all those involved in research, teaching and practice within the area of physical therapy.

Reviews (both descriptive and systematic) are invited in the following areas, which reflect the breadth and diversity of practice within physical therapy:

•neurological rehabilitation
•movement and exercise
•orthopaedics and rheumatology
•manual therapy and massage
•sports medicine
•measurement
•chest physiotherapy
•electrotherapeutics
•obstetrics and gynaecology
•complementary therapies
•professional issues
•musculoskeletal rehabilitation

Subjects not specifically identified, but of direct relevance to the practice of physical therapy, will be covered by guest editorials and/or commissioned reviews as appropriate. Letters to the Editor, book and video reviews will also be included where appropriate. All reviews are subject to a peer review process.

Physical Therapy in Sport is an international peer-reviewed journal that provides a forum for the publication of research and clinical practice material relevant to the healthcare professions involved in sports medicine. The journal publishes material that is indispensable for day-to-day practice and continuing professional development. Physical Therapy in Sport covers topics dealing with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of injuries, as well as more general areas of sports medicine and related sports science.The journal publishes original research, case studies, reviews, masterclasses, papers on clinical approaches, and book reviews, as well as occasional reports from conferences. Papers are double-blind peer-reviewed by our international advisory board and other international experts, and submissions from a broad range of disciplines are actively encouraged.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Australasian Physical & Engineering Sciences in Medicine (APESM) is a multidisciplinary forum for information and research on the application of physics and engineering to medicine and biology, that covers a broad range of topics. Recent articles include a tutorial for treatment planning in radiation oncology physics; a spreadsheet for use in Partial Breast Irradiation, employing measurements performed at the time of the planning CT scan; and a paper describing the calibration of hardware modified phones for use in studying the health effects of mobile telephone use. APESM offers original reviews, scientific papers, scientific notes, technical reports, technical notes, educational notes, book reviews and letters to the editor. APESM is the journal of the Australasian College of Physical Scientists and Engineers in Medicine, and also the official journal of the College of Biomedical Engineers, Engineers Australia and the Asia-Oceania Federation of Organizations for Medical Physics.
