Physics Today

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Physics Today magazine, created in 1948, is the flagship publication of The American Institute of Physics. It is provided to 130,000 members of twelve physics societies. Famous physicists of the last 50 years have written for the magazine, including Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr, and Richard Feynman.

The magazine provides a historical resource of events associated to physics, including debunking the physics behind the so-called Star Wars program of the 1980s, and the state of physics in China and the Soviet Union during the 1950s. More recently it has one of the seminal articles on quantum computing.[1]

Physics Today Online presents the magazine's digital edition and in addition, extends the magazine's coverage of the physical sciences with links to related articles and news stories from around the web. It also features an online research center called research today, a tool that brings together the articles from a growing number of online publishing platforms including Scitation and arXiv.
