First appearing in 1934, ROPP has traditionally been known as a reviews journal, publishing articles that present the mature development of an area of physics that has resulted in significant advances of wide interest to physics and related disciplines. However, in 2024, the journal also started publishing original research articles of broader multidisciplinary interest with the expectation for long-term scientific impact and influence on the current state and/or future direction of a field[2].
