- Abstract: Physical Review B is the largest dedicated journal in all of physics and the third largest in all of science. It receives around 10,000 submissions annually which are handled by a team of in-house and remote editors. Being one of them I will give an overview of the journal and its editorial policies and practices in a way that could be useful for the audience of both authors and referees who may or may not have experience with PRB. I will also spend some time talking about other members of the Physical Review family such as PRL, PRX and the recently launched open-access journal Physical Review Research.
- Host: Alex Levchenko
