✓ Indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection (ESCI) — Clarivate publishes an official Journal Impact Factor and JCR quartile for this journal.
See the official Impact Factor & quartile on the journal’s page ↗The Impact Factor & JCR quartile are licensed by Clarivate — we link you to the official source instead of reprinting a number that can go out of date. Open metrics below: SCImago Q3. Source: Clarivate Journal Citation Reports.
Aims & Scope
The journal publishes original research articles in most areas of physics, including, but not limited to: physics of particles and fields, condensed matter, physics of fluids, chemical physics, statistical mechanics, soft condensed matter, materials science, biophysics, econophysics, mathematical physics and general physics, relativity and gravitation, and nuclear physics. Submissions in the areas of foundations of physics, history of physics, and physics education are out of the scope. Manuscripts presenting 'unifying theories of the universe' or re-defining well-known relativity and gravitation theories without strong roots in the current literature on the field would be also automatically rejected. All submissions are expected to contain substantial new results and ideas that advance the state of physics in a non-trivial way.

Ethics & Quality
Think.Check.Submit Compliance
A twelfth criterion — whether APC fees are clearly disclosed — is not scored here; it is left out of the total rather than counted as a failure. Publication charges appear in the metrics card above.
Based on the Think.Check.Submit framework by DOAJ, COPE & OASPA. All data from verified open sources.
Publication & Citation Trend
Source: OpenAlex · Each year’s green bar = citations earned by that year’s papers, counted to date — so recent years look lower simply because their papers haven’t had time to be cited yet.

Frequently asked questions about Papers in Physics
Is Papers in Physics a predatory journal?
PubScope has no integrity flags on record for Papers in Physics: it is indexed in Web of Science, Scopus, DOAJ, and is not on DOAJ's withdrawn list. Indexing is a transparency signal, not a guarantee — always confirm fit and policies before submitting.
What is the impact factor of Papers in Physics?
Papers in Physics is indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection, so Clarivate publishes an official Journal Impact Factor for it (since the 2023 Journal Citation Reports, every Core Collection journal — including Arts & Humanities and Emerging Sources titles — receives one). PubScope links to Clarivate's official source rather than reprinting the number, which can be out of date. Its open 2-year mean citedness is 0.50.
