The Journal of the Physical Society of Japan (JPSJ) is published by the Physical Society of Japan (JPS) . It is devoted to the rapid dissemination of important research results in all fields of physics from condensed matter physics to particle physics. Since its launch in 1946 as the successor to the well-known Proceedings of the Physico-Mathematical Society of Japan, JPSJ has published many important papers and has attained a worldwide reputation.
JPSJ is an international journal. We welcome the submission of papers from all over the world. In particular, to encourage the submission of papers by researchers in developing countries, we have a program that provides them with financial support.
