The Journal of High Energy Physics (JHEP) is a refereed scientific journal in the field of high energy physics. JHEP is owned by the International School for Advanced Studies (Scuola Internazionale Superiore di Studi Avanzati or SISSA - Trieste, Italy) and published by Springer. SISSA is in charge of the peer review of submissions, while Springer is in charge of the online publication of articles and subscriptions. The Journal was founded in 1997 as a purely electronic journal with no printed counterpart.

Aims and Scope

JHEP aims to ensure fast and efficient online publication tools to the scientific community, while keeping that community in charge of every aspect of the peer-review and publication process in order to ensure the highest quality standards in the journal. The objective in running the journal is to capitalise on the innovative advantages of the new media: rapidity of communication, broad diffusion and the ability to run and distribute a journal solely by electronic means. By introducing an automated and electronic peer review system, JHEP complements the present system of preprint distribution via the online arXiv service that has so successfully replaced the conventional system.
JHEP encompasses the following areas of theoretical and experimental physics:

Collider Physics
Underground and Large Array Physics
Quantum Field Theory
Gauge Field Theories
Symmetries
String and Brane Theory
General Relativity and Gravitation
Supersymmetry
Mathematical Methods of Physics
Mostly Solvable Models
Astroparticles
Statistical Field Theories
Mostly Weak Interactions
Mostly Strong Interactions
Phenomenological
