Space Physics is a fairly young branch of physics. Originating about half a century ago, with the advent of rocket and spacecraft technology enabling observations above the atmosphere in situ Earth's close environment, initially as an exploratory geophysical activity, it has since matured into its own unique and active field. Space Physics encompasses the entire region from the upper atmosphere (~80 km altitude) out to the bounds of the heliosphere (at ~100-150 astronomical units), the region dominated by the magnetic field and particles emanating from the Sun.
The specialty section Space Physics welcomes submission of original observational, theoretical, simulation and experimental studies that provide novel insights into the various processes taking place in the fully, as well as partially, ionized space matter:
Indexed in: Scopus, Web of Science Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE), Google Scholar, DOAJ, CrossRef, Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS), Astrophics Data System (SAO/NASA ADS), INSPIRE, CLOCKSS
PMCID: NA
Space Physics welcomes submissions of the following article types: Brief Research Report, Correction, Data Report, Editorial, General Commentary, Hypothesis and Theory, Methods, Mini Review, Opinion, Original Research, Perspective, Review and Specialty Grand Challenge.
All manuscripts must be submitted directly to the section Space Physics, where they are peer-reviewed by the Associate and Review Editors of the specialty section.
