+ <h2>Aims</h2>
+ <p>SciPost Physics is our top-level flagship in the field of Physics.</p>
+ <p>Publications in SciPost Physics provide details on groundbreaking results or significant breakthroughs occurring in any (sub)specialization.</p>
+ <p>As a premium-quality, two-way open access, peer-witnessed refereed Journal, it aims at providing scientists with a publishing platform in which uncompromising scientific quality meets the highest achievable standards of open accessibility, with a resolutely international outlook.</p>
+ <p><em>Two-way open access</em> means free for readers, free for authors: there are no subscription or download costs, and authors are freed from dealing with article submission and/or processing charges.</p>
+ <p>The <em>peer-witnessed refereeing</em> process guarantees high-quality, responsible refereeing, with demonstrably greater utility for authors and recognition for referees.</p>
+ </div>
+ <div class="col-md-6">
+ <h2>Scope</h2>
+ <p>SciPost Physics publishes outstanding-quality research articles in the domains of Experimental, Theoretical and Computational physics, among which:</p>

+ <h2>Content</h2>
+ <p>The journal accepts three types of content: <strong>Letters</strong>, <strong>Articles</strong> and <strong>Reviews</strong>.</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li><strong>Letters</strong> report broad-interest, significant breakthroughs in Physics, of interest and importance to researchers in multiple subject areas.</li>
+ <li><strong>Articles</strong> provide in-depth, detailed reports of groundbreaking research within one or more subject areas.</li>
+ <li><strong>Reviews</strong> are short pieces taking a snapshot of a research area, written by recognized leaders in the field, providing a critical assessment of current frontline research and providing pointers towards future opportunities.</li>
