eISSN = 1361-6455"Journal of Physics B: Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics" (J. Phys.B) is a
peer-review edscientific journal published semi-monthly by theInstitute of Physics (IOP) in theUnited Kingdom . It was formed in1968 from the division of the earlier title, Physical Society (London) Proceedings.The journal has published research in
atomic ,molecular physics ,scattering andionization studies. In the last decade the journal has expanded its scope into new areas such as ultracold matter,quantum optics ,quantum information , intense laser fields andultrafast science .Atomic ,molecular andoptical physics provide insights not only into the behavior ofatoms andmolecules , but also contribute to the understanding ofquantum theory ,condensed matter and the control and manipulation oflight andmatter at the smallest scales.In 2006, it published 581 papers. It has an
impact factor of 2.024, placing it 12th among the 31 titles in theAtomic ,Molecular , andChemical Physics category ofJournal Citation Reports , and 9th among the 55 titles in theOptics category.The editor-in-chief is Jan Michael Rost at [http://www.pks.mpg.de MPI for the Physics of Complex Systems] ,
Dresden ,Germany .It is indexed in
INSPEC Information Services,Chemical Abstracts ,ISI (Science Citation Index , SciSearch, ISI Alerting Services,Current Contents /Physical, Chemical and Earth Sciences), Article@INIST , and Engineering Index/EiCompendex .It is a subscription journal, but all papers are freely accessible for the first 30 days after publication [http://www.iop.org/EJ/journal/JPhysB at the journal web site] .
