Subscription Information
Member Article Packs: give you flexible online access to key research articles spanning all of Physical Review on Scitation (excluding RMP). With an APS Article Pack, members can select and download twenty (20) articles in PDF format from across the collection of Physical Review Letters, Physical Review A - E and PROLA. In addition to the journals listed above, the new APS/AIP Joint Article Pack also allows access to Applied Physics Letters, Chaos, Journal of Applied Physics, Journal of Chemical Physics, Journal of Mathematical Physics, Low Temperature Physics, Physics of Fluids, Physics of Plasmas, Review of Scientific Instrumentation and AIP Conference Proceedings.
Subscribers may browse the table of contents of each publication. Your Pack will remain active for one full year in coordination with your APS membership term, thus during that time you will maintain full access to all of your downloaded articles and may select new articles with any unused portion of your Pack.
FREE TO READ is an Open Access initiative of the American Physical Society (APS). Via this program, anyone may, by paying a one-time fee, make articles published in Physical Review A-E, Physical Review Letters, and Reviews of Modern Physics available to all readers at no cost and without a subscription. For additional information, please visit the FREE TO READ FAQ.
Subscription Terms: New membership and subscription requests begin the 1st of the month following receipt of application/payment and continue for 12 months. Current members who order new journal print subscriptions will be charged a prorated amount and begin receiving issues from the time of payment. Reinstated print subscriptions will not be back dated. CD Roms are available for access to archived journal issues.
Conditions: Each member of the American Physical Society may subscribe to up to three APS journals at member rates, excluding PROLA, for their personal use. Online access to APS journals at member rates, during the licensed year, has a cap of 300 downloads for a single journal and 450 downloads for PROLA. Access will be terminated if these limits are exceeded.
