Physics-Uspekhi (Advances in Physical Sciences) is a scientific journal, a translation of the Russian journal of physics, Uspekhi Fizicheskikh Nauk (Russian: Успехи физических наук, УФН, UFN), continuing since 1918.[1] The journal publishes long review papers which are supposed to generalize and summarize previously published results, making them easier to use and to understand. The journal covers all topics of modern physics. The English version has existed since 1958, first under the name Soviet Physics Uspekhi and, after 1993, as Physics-Uspekhi.
The founder of the journal, Eduard Shpolsky, was editor-in-chief from 1918 to his death in 1975.[1]
Nobel prize winner Vitaly Ginzburg, connected with the journal since before World War II, was appointed its editor in chief in 1998. In his 2006 Nobel autobiography, Ginzburg called it "a good and useful journal" and credited its "maintenance of the highest level" to long-term editorial manager M. S. Aksentyeva.[2]
