Advances in Physics These reviews are sometimes complemented by a "Perspectives" section which publishes shorter articles that may be controversial, with the intention of stimulating debate. The intended audience consists of physicists, materials scientists, and physical chemists working in universities, industry, and research institutes. Broad, interdisciplinary coverage includes topics ranging from condensed matter physics, statistical mechanics, quantum information, cold atoms, and soft matter physics to biophysics. The impact factor for "Advances in Physics" 18.062 in 2013, ranking it first in the discipline of condensed matter physics. This journal is indexed in the following databases: Advances in Physics Advances in Physics is a bimonthly
Strong interaction (or temperatures). The theorized energy where its strength becomes equal to the electroweak interaction is the grand unification energy. However, no Grand Unified Theory has yet been successfully formulated to describe this process, and Grand Unification remains an unsolved problem in physics. If GUT is correct, after the Big Bang and during the electroweak epoch of the universe, the electroweak force separated from the strong force. Accordingly, a grand unification epoch is hypothesized to have existed prior to this. Strong interaction In particle physics, the strong interaction is the mechanism responsible for the strong nuclear force (also called the strong
