Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical

Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical is a peer-reviewed scientific journal published by the Institute of Physics (IOP) in the United Kingdom. It provides theoretical physics coverage which focuses on sophisticated mathematical and computational techniques. The journal is divided into six sections covering: statistical physics; chaotic and complex systems; mathematical physics; quantum mechanics and quantum information theory; classical and quantum field theory; fluid and plasma theory.

The editor-in-chief is Carl M. Bender at Washington University, St Louis, MO, USA.

The journal had an Impact factor of 1.577 for 2006 according to Journal Citation Reports. It is indexed in INSPEC Information Services, Chemical Abstracts, ISI (Science Citation Index, SciSearch, ISI Alerting Services, Current Contents/Physical, Chemical and Earth Sciences), Mathematical Reviews, Current Mathematical Publications, MathSciNet, Article@INIST, and Zentralblatt MATH.

It is a subscription journal, but all papers are freely accessible for the first 30 days after publication at the journal web site.
