International Journal of Modern Physics B (IJMPB)
http://www.worldscinet.com/ijmpb


***Aims & Scope***

Launched in 1987, this journal covers the most important aspects as well 
as the latest developments in Condensed Matter, Statistical, Applied 
Physics and High Tc Superconductivity. One unique feature of this 
journal is its review section which contains articles with permanent 
research value besides the state-of-the-art research work in the 
relevant subject areas.
To ensure top quality, review articles are by invitation only and all 
research papers undergo stringent refereeing. We welcome you to submit 
your research papers to IJMPB for publication.

Complimentary copies are available upon request.
