Scope

• Its declared aim is to demonstrate the interconnectivity of physics, meaning the intellectual relationships between one branch of physics and another as well as the influence of physics across traditional boundaries, which is why the title carries the letter X其自述目标是展示物理学的相互连通性，即物理学各分支之间的智识联系以及物理学跨越传统学科边界的影响，刊名因此带上字母（X）。
• The neighbouring disciplines named by the journal are chemistry, materials science, engineering, biology and medicine该刊点名的相邻学科为化学、材料科学、工程学、生物学与医学。
• It publishes concise review articles commissioned from internationally leading experts and made freely available throughout the world它刊发由国际顶尖专家受邀撰写的简明综述文章，并在全世界范围内免费可得。
• The journal now also considers review articles that have not been commissioned, and in that case authors are asked to write to the editor-in-chief before submitting a manuscript该刊现也接受未经委托的综述稿件，此类作者被要求在投稿前先致函主编。

• Reviewing is single-anonymised, the same register records thirteen weeks on average from submission to publication, and the journal is indexed in the Science Citation Index Expanded where it ranks eighth among 112 multidisciplinary physics titles该刊采用单匿名评审，同一名录记录投稿到发表平均 13 周，它被（SCIE）收录并在 112 种多学科物理期刊中排名第 8 位。

History

• The journal started in 2016 as an online-only title carrying the single ISSN 2374-6149, its serial record noting that it began with volume 1 issue 1 of that year and that the publishing house is established in Oxfordshire in the United Kingdom该刊于 2016 年以纯在线刊物起步，只有一个（ISSN）号 2374-6149，其连续出版物记录注明自当年第 1 卷第 1 期开始出版、出版机构设在英国牛津郡。
• It draws upon the heritage of Advances in Physics, founded by Sir Nevill Mott in 1952 as a spin-off from the Philosophical Magazine, which was itself established in 1798 and has been published by the same house since 1822它承接《物理学进展》（Advances in Physics）的学术传统，该刊由（Nevill Mott）爵士于 1952 年创办、源自《哲学杂志》（Philosophical Magazine）的分支，而后者始创于 1798 年并自 1822 年起由同一家出版社出版。
• The first table of contents dated 2 January 2016 gathered eight commissioned reviews on subjects from charge-density imaging and structural magnetism to conical intersections, silicon optical fibres, gas-phase nanoparticle design and plankton perception, together with an opening article by the founding editor2016 年 1 月 2 日的目录汇入了 8 篇受邀综述，主题从电荷密度成像、结构磁性到锥形交叉、硅光纤、气相纳米颗粒设计以及浮游生物的信号感知，并附创刊编辑撰写的开篇文。^[1]
