The purpose of this journal is to catalyse, foster, and disseminate an awareness and understanding of the historical development of ideas in contemporary physics, and more generally, ideas about how Nature works. The scope explicitly includes:Contributions addressing the history of physics and of physical ideas and concepts, the interplay of physics and mathematics as well as the natural sciences, and the history and philosophy of sciences, together with discussions of experimental ideas and designs - inasmuch as they clearly relate, and preferably add, to the understanding of modern physics.Annotated and/or contextual translations of relevant foreign-language texts.Careful characterisations of old and/or abandoned ideas including past mistakes and false leads, thereby helping working physicists to assess how compelling contemporary ideas may turn out to be in future, i.e. with hindsight. The scope explicitly excludes:The publication of new results at the forefront of physics research.EPJ H addresses the history of physics primarily from the perspective of physics and physicists . Being an integral part of a core physics publishing platform, it will:Support physicists in any serious attempts to reflect, understand, and improve on the culture of their own discipline.Promote fruitful interaction between working physicists and historians of sciences.Articles may therefore vary significantly as regards the type, level and amount of technical discussion that is required to convey precise meaning to the respective communities. However, the editors will insist that comprehensive and lucid non-technical introductions and summaries are provided for every contribution.All papers will be published in English. Both regular articles and reviews will be considered.
这本杂志的目的是催化、培养和传播对当代物理学思想的历史发展的认识和理解，更广泛地说，是关于自然如何运作的思想。范围明确包括:贡献解决物理和物理思想和概念的历史,物理和数学的相互作用以及自然科学和科学的历史和哲学内涵,一起讨论实验的想法和设计——因为他们明显相关,最好是添加,现代物理学的理解。相关外文文本的注释和/或上下文翻译。仔细描述旧的和/或被抛弃的想法，包括过去的错误和错误的线索，从而帮助工作中的物理学家评估当代的想法在未来会变得多么引人注目，也就是事后来看。范围明确排除:发表在物理学研究前沿的新成果。EPJ H主要从物理学和物理学家的角度论述物理学的历史。作为核心物理出版平台的一个组成部分，它将:支持物理学家认真思考、理解和改进本学科的文化。促进工作物理学家和科学历史学家之间富有成效的互动。因此，关于向各自社区传达准确含义所需的技术讨论的类型、级别和数量，文章可能会有很大的不同。但是，编辑们将坚持为每一篇文章提供全面和清晰的非技术介绍和摘要。所有论文将以英文发表。定期文章和评论都将被考虑。
