The main points discussed in Physical Review X deals with Condensed matter physics, Quantum, Quantum mechanics, Statistical physics and Superconductivity. The work on Condensed matter physics tackled in Physical Review X brings together disciplines like Electron and Magnetic field. The journal focuses on different Quantum studies like Quantum information, Quantum computer and Quantum entanglement.
The journal focused on Quantum computer research but expanded to cover Qubit. Photon is a major topic of Quantum mechanics research presented in it.
The most cited publications facilitate discussions on Quantum, Condensed matter physics, Statistical physics, Quantum mechanics and Quantum computer. In addition to Quantum research, the most cited publications aim to explore topics under Phase transition and Hamiltonian (quantum mechanics). The journal articles hold forums on Condensed matter physics that merge themes from other disciplines such as Electron, Semiconductor and Graphene.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Physical Review X (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Physical Review X (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 4.98% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 37.14% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 12.86% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 16.19% of all publications and 33.81% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2020)Studying Physics in the USA opens doors to a variety of related online degrees and career pathways beyond traditional roles. For those intrigued by science application in law enforcement, exploring forensic science can be rewarding. Understanding forensic scientist salary and career expectations helps students align their goals with industry realities.
Leadership roles also complement a Physics background. For example, becoming an athletic director requires organizational and strategic skills similar to managing scientific projects. Discovering how to become an athletic director through relevant online programs can expand career prospects.
For individuals interested in education and leadership, pursuing an edd leadership degree online offers flexible pathways to administrative roles in academic settings. This route synergizes well with a physics foundation, especially in educational leadership.
Additionally, creative professionals can integrate Physics knowledge with digital media by enrolling in an online graphic design degree. This unique combination fosters innovative problem-solving in technology-driven design careers.
