Aims & Scope

International Journal of Thermophysics serves as an international medium for the publication of papers in thermophysics, assisting both generators and users of thermophysical properties data. Publishes both experimental and theoretical papers on thermophysical properties of matter in the liquid, gaseous, and solid states (including soft matter, biofluids, and nano- and bio-materials) Publishes studies in all ranges of temperature, pressure, wavelength, and other relevant variables. Features papers on instrumentation, measurement techniques, and computer studies of model and related systems.
