The 2015 Journals Catalog provides valuable information about each of the APS journals, along with an overview of the various services and resources available to librarians, subscribers, and readers. “Quantum-path control and isolated-attosecond-pulse generation using H2+ molecules with moving nuclei in few-cycle laser pulses” [Xin-Lei Ge et al., Phys. Rev. A 89, 023424 (2014)] 2 APS Journals 2015 Letter FROM THE EDITOR IN CHIEF Each year, the American Physical Society’s journals catalog provides useful information about the APS journal collection: Physical Review Letters, Reviews of Modern Physics, the Physical Review series, two open access Special Topics journals, and our newest journal—Physical Review Applied. This catalog highlights each journal’s scope, features, and editorial staff, along with a selection of colorful and intriguing images from APS published research. The catalog also includes information detailing PROLA, the Physical Review Online Archive; our free online publication Physics, comprised of original news and commentary about noteworthy APS journal articles; and all of the other valuable publication services offered. We are proudly watching the development of our newest journal, Physical Review Applied, which commenced in December of 2013. Since its launch, we have seen a steady stream of high-quality papers both submitted and published from authors who may not have previously had a clear place to publish within the APS family of journals. APS also recently launched completely new, mobile-friendly journal web pages offering a high-quality experience across a range of devices. The interactive design broadens the site’s utility across media platforms and lays the groundwork for future enhancements. I’ve been accustomed to sharing these introductory pages with Joe Serene, who served as APS Treasurer/Publisher for the last eight years through August of 2014. Joe ably managed the Treasurer and Publisher positions, either of which could have been a full time job. Among Joe’s contributions were the idea and implementation of providing APS journals at no cost to public libraries and high schools throughout the United States. He was also a founder of CHORUS, the consortium of publishers working together to design and propose a response to the US government mandate to make federally funded research publicly available. Everyone at APS will miss Joe’s dedication to the organization and his commitment to providing the best journals at the lowest and most equitable prices possible. I would also like to thank two representatives from the librarian community, Christopher Erdmann of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics and Joy Painter of the California Institute of Technology for their contributions to APS. Both Christopher and Joy were appointed, in consultation with the Physics, Astronomy, and Mathematics Division (PAM) of the Special Libraries Association (SLA), to serve as advisors to APS and attend our Publications Oversight Committee meetings. We look forward to providing you with another year full of exceptional research and thank you for your commitment to the APS journal collection. Gene D. Sprouse Editor in Chief American Physical Society APS Journals 2015 3 4 APS Journals 2014 Journal Descriptions APS Editorial Office Gene D. Sprouse, Editor in Chief Daniel T. Kulp, Editorial Director Hernan D. Rozenfeld, Assistant Editorial Director APS Journals 2015 5 SUGGESTIONS Look for this indication KALEIDOSCOPE Look for this indication Editors’ Suggestions Included in the Physical Review journal collection, Editors’ Suggestions highlight select papers of particular interest, importance, or clarity. APS Editors choose these exceptional papers weekly to encourage the exploration of other areas of physics. Editors’ Suggestions can be found on the respective online journal page. Kaleidoscope Many Physical Review articles contain images that are both scientifically important and visually appealing. A selection of these images appears in Kaleidoscope to promote interest in the aesthetics of physics. Images are selected solely for their artistic appeal. Images from recently published papers appear on our main page and in an online archive. Creative Commons Authors in most Physical Review journals may pay an article-processing charge whereby their accepted manuscripts are available barrier-free and open access on publication. These manuscripts are published under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License (CC-BY), the most permissive of the CC licenses, granting authors and others the right to copy, distribute, transmit, and adapt the work, provided that proper credit is given. This alternative is in addition to traditional subscriptionfunded publication; authors may choose one or the other for their accepted papers. More information about the APS article-processing charges can be found online at journals.aps.org/author-information. 6 APS Journals 2015 Physical Review Applied journals.aps.org/prapplied Physical Review Applied is APS’s newest journal dedicated to publishing the highest quality research at the intersection of physics and engineering. Physical Review Applied welcomes papers in conventional applied physics, including research into materials science, surface and interface physics, device physics, condensed matter physics, and optics. Beyond the conventional description, we especially invite papers by physicists working on problems in engineering, and by engineers investigating systems involving physical mechanisms. We believe the combination of the best in physics with the best in engineering will strengthen both disciplines as well as provide new insights, foster new approaches, and promote new collaborations in a forum not available elsewhere.

The APS Council supports the philosophy that the cost of research activity should be distributed to reflect the way different institutions utilize the literature. In particular, it should reflect both the value of the product to the reader (students, researchers, etc.) and the value of the journal as a distributor of research information (authors, institutions). Policies for tier designations are set by APS Members who serve on the APS Publications Oversight Committee. The Report of the APS’s Task Force on Journal Pricing was accepted by the APS Council. IP Policy APS online institutional subscribers are recognized and authorized by their Internet Protocol (IP) address. APS will only accept IP ranges owned by the subscriber or that are for the sole use of the subscriber. APS does not allow IP sharing across multiple institutions or accounts. If an IP is submitted in conflict with a pre-existing IP address in the APS system, both institutions will be notified to resolve the conflict. Systematic or programmatic downloading via granted IP access is prohibited. A more detailed explanation of the APS IP Policy is available online at librarians.aps.org/institutional.html. 28 APS Journals 2015 International Orders Institutions in Japan must order directly through APS’s exclusive agent, Kinokuniya.

The discs contain PDFs of the year’s journals to allow the transfer of the information onto the subscribing institution’s server, thus “shelving” the information contained in the printed journals. The disc is the functional equivalent of a bound volume. This product provides the opportunity for users to secure their own archival copy of the annual issues. The root directory contains an HTML document that links to each issue’s table of contents, also in HTML format. Each issue has its own directory, which includes the HTML table of contents and PDF files of the articles. These files may be read with any conventional web browser and appropriate PDF viewer (such as Adobe Reader). Access is limited subject to the terms and conditions set forth by the current journal subscription.
