Published monthly and covering all branches of physics, Reports on Progress in Physics is a prestigious journal for the publication of reviews surveying the development of selected topics, typically over the previous decade, within a wider context. Articles combine a critical evaluation of the field for established workers with a reliable and accessible introduction for newcomers and specialists in other fields.The journal has traditionally published review articles. Recently two other article types have been introduced to deal with subjects that have not reached a level of maturity necessary for a full review: Reports on Progress and Key Issues Reviews.

《物理學(xué)進展報告》是一本著名的期刊，每月出版一期，涵蓋物理學(xué)的所有分支，主要是在更廣泛的背景下，對選定主題的發(fā)展進行調(diào)查。文章結(jié)合了對該領(lǐng)域的現(xiàn)有工作者的批判性評價，以及對其他領(lǐng)域的新來者和專家的可靠和可獲得的介紹。該雜志傳統(tǒng)上發(fā)表評論文章。最近還引入了另外兩種類型的文章來處理尚未達到全面審查所必需的成熟度級別的主題:進度報告和關(guān)鍵問題審查。
