Physics of Plasmas (PoP), published by AIP Publishing in cooperation with the APS Division of Plasma Physics, is committed to the publication of original research in all areas of experimental, computational, and theoretical plasma physics.

PoP publishes comprehensive and in-depth review manuscripts and forward-looking perspectives covering important areas of study. The Physics of Plasmas publishes the Special Issue of invited, tutorial and review papers from the APS Annual Meeting of the Division of Plasmas Physics and Special Topics highlighting new and cutting-edge developments in plasma physics.

PoP welcomes manuscripts across the full range of applied and fundamental research in this dynamic field, including:

Basic plasma phenomena, waves, instabilities
Nonlinear phenomena, turbulence, transport
Magnetically confined plasmas, heating, confinement
Inertially confined plasmas, high-energy density plasma science, warm dense matter
Heliospheric and astrophysical plasmas
Plasma-based accelerators, beams, radiation generation
Radiation emission, absorption, and transport
Low-temperature plasmas, plasma applications, plasma sources, sheaths
Dusty plasmas
Numerical Methods, Verification and Validation in Plasma Physics
