Journal Title：Phase Transitions

Phase Transitions is the only journal devoted exclusively to this important subject. It provides a focus for papers on most aspects of phase transitions in condensed matter. Although emphasis is placed primarily on experimental work, theoretical papers are welcome if they have some bearing on experimental results. The areas of interest include:

-structural phase transitions (ferroelectric, ferroelastic, multiferroic, order-disorder, Jahn-Teller, etc.) under a range of external parameters (temperature, pressure, strain, electric/magnetic fields, etc.)

-geophysical phase transitions

-metal-insulator phase transitions

-superconducting and superfluid transitions

-magnetic phase transitions

-critical phenomena and physical properties at phase transitions

-liquid crystals

-technological applications of phase transitions

-quantum phase transitions

Phase Transitions publishes both research papers and invited articles devoted to special topics. Major review papers are particularly welcome. A further emphasis of the journal is the publication of a selected number of small workshops, which are at the forefront of their field.

Phase Transitions 是唯一专门针对这一重要主题的期刊。它为关于凝聚态相变的大多数方面的论文提供了重点。虽然重点主要放在实验工作上，但如果理论论文对实验结果有一定影响，也是受欢迎的。感兴趣的领域包括：

-在一系列外部参数（温度、压力、应变、电场/磁场等）下的结构相变（铁电、铁弹性、多铁性、有序无序、Jahn-Teller 等）

-地球物理相变

-金属-绝缘体相变

-超导和超流体跃迁

-磁性相变

-相变时的临界现象和物理性质

-液晶

-相变的技术应用

-量子相变

Phase Transitions 发表专门针对特殊主题的研究论文和特邀文章。特别欢迎主要的评论论文。该杂志的另一个重点是出版选定数量的小型研讨会，这些研讨会处于各自领域的前沿。
