Philosophical Magazine Letters is the rapid communications part of the highly respected Philosophical Magazine, which was first published in 1798. Its Editors consider for publication short and timely contributions in the field of condensed matter describing original results, theories and concepts relating to the structure and properties of crystalline materials, ceramics, polymers, glasses, amorphous films, composites and soft matter. Articles emphasizing experimental, theoretical and modelling studies on solids, especially those that interpret behaviour on a microscopic, atomic or electronic scale, are particularly appropriate. Manuscripts are considered on the strict condition that they have been submitted only to Philosophical Magazine Letters , that they have not been published already, and that they are not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Contributions to Philosophical Magazine Letters must report original research and will be subjected to review by referees at the discretion of the Editors. By submitting a manuscript to Philosophical Magazine Letters authors are agreeing that CrossCheck software may be used to screen their work for unoriginal material. All research articles published in Philosophical Magazine Letters have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous reviewing by at least two expert referees. All peer review is single blind, and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts. Physicists, materials scientists, and physical chemists within universities and research institutes.

《哲學雜志通訊》是1798年創刊的《哲學雜志通訊》的快速傳播部分。它的編輯們考慮在凝聚態領域發表簡短而及時的文章，描述與晶體材料、陶瓷、聚合物、玻璃、非晶態薄膜、復合材料和軟物質的結構和性能有關的原始結果、理論和概念。強調對固體進行實驗、理論和模型研究的文章，特別是那些解釋微觀、原子或電子尺度上行為的文章，特別合適。手稿被認為是在嚴格的條件下，他們只提交給哲學雜志信件，他們還沒有出版，他們沒有考慮出版其他地方。哲學雜志信件的投稿必須報告原始研究，并將接受審稿人的自由裁量權。通過向哲學雜志《快報》(Letters)提交一份手稿，作者們一致同意，交叉檢驗軟件可以用來篩選他們的作品中沒有原創的材料。所有發表在哲學雜志《快報》上的研究文章都經過了嚴格的同行評審，初步的編輯篩選和至少兩名專家評審的匿名評審。所有的同行評審都是單盲的，通過ScholarOne手稿在線提交。大學和研究機構的物理學家、材料科學家和物理化學家。
