Aims and Scope of Communication in Physical Science
Aims: Communication in Physical Science seeks to provide a comprehensive platform for
publishing innovative and high-quality research across various scientific disciplines.
The journal’s primary aims are:
1. To foster the exchange of novel ideas, research findings, and advancements in physical,
biological, environmental, geological, and technological sciences.
2. To support the dissemination of interdisciplinary research that bridges multiple scientific
fields.
3. To contribute to scientific progress by promoting the publication of peer-reviewed, open-
access research accessible to the global community.
4. To encourage collaboration among scientists, researchers, and practitioners through the
publication of impactful studies.
Scope: The journal covers a broad range of scientific disciplines and invites contributions in the
following areas:
- Physical Sciences: This includes physics, chemistry, material science, nuclear science,
and applied physical sciences. Research that advances understanding in areas such as
thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, nanomaterials, and nuclear energy is particularly
welcomed. - Environmental Sciences: Focused on research addressing environmental challenges, the
journal publishes studies on pollution control, sustainable resource management,
biodiversity conservation, and climate science. It seeks contributions that explore
solutions to environmental issues impacting ecosystems and human health. - Biological Sciences: The journal supports research in biophysics, biochemistry,
molecular biology, and biotechnology. Papers that delve into cellular mechanisms,
genetic engineering, and molecular interactions that bridge biology and physical science
are highly encouraged. - Mathematical and Computational Sciences: This section focuses on applied
mathematics, data science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and computational
modeling in the physical sciences. Studies on algorithm development, simulation, and
modeling techniques that solve real-world scientific problems are of interest. - Engineering and Technological Sciences: Contributions in engineering innovations,
nanotechnology, renewable energy, and material engineering are sought. The journal
supports work that focuses on technological advancements with potential applications in
medicine, industry, and environmental protection. - Geology and Earth Science: Communication in Physical Science also welcomes
research on the Earth’s geological processes, natural resources, and environmental
phenomena. Topics such as geophysics, geochemistry, mineralogy, tectonics,
hydrogeology, and Earth system sciences are covered. The journal invites studies on the
formation, structure, and dynamics of the Earth and its components, including innovative
approaches to understanding natural hazards, resource exploration, and sustainable land-
use practices.
In addition to traditional research areas, Communication in Physical Science encourages
submissions that explore new scientific frontiers, emerging technologies, and interdisciplinary approaches that have a significant impact on scientific progress.
The journal is dedicated to maintaining a rigorous peer-review process to ensure the publication of high-quality, impactful
