Physics of Plasmas (POP)

Physics of Plasmas is a leading monthly, peer-reviewed scientific journal specializing in plasma physics, the branch of physics that studies ionized gases and their complex electromagnetic and kinetic behaviors. Established in 1994 as a distinct publication from Physics of Fluids B, the journal is co-published by AIP Publishing and the *American Physical Society (APS) Division of Plasma Physics. It provides a premier forum for high-quality research that spans fundamental theory, advanced computation, and cutting-edge experiments. The scope of the journal includes plasma waves and instabilities, turbulence and transport processes, magnetically and inertially confined plasmas, high-energy density plasmas, dusty and low-temperature plasmas, space and astrophysical plasmas, and diverse plasma applications. In addition to standard research articles, Physics of Plasmas publishes in-depth review manuscripts, tutorials, and special topic collections, including invited papers from the APS Division of Plasma Physics annual meeting, highlighting emerging directions and significant developments in the field. Under the leadership of Editor-in-Chief Igor Kaganovich, the journal continues to uphold rigorous peer-review standards and maintain broad relevance across both experimental and theoretical plasma science communities. It serves as an essential resource for physicists working on fusion energy research, space and astrophysical plasma phenomena, plasma diagnostics, and applications in industry and technology.
