Dear AAPPS-DPP members
I am pleased to inform you that official DPP’s journal is coming close.
The name of the journal is “Reviews of Modern Plasma Physics” specialized
for plasma physics aiming at highest impact factor in our field. This isE-journal. It is the review journal (not for original article) which covers three
categories, i.s. Chandrasekhar lecture (for S. Chandrasekhar prizelaureates), Review paper and Tutorial.
The Chief Editors are Profs TS. Hahm, R. Boswell, Yi-Kang Pu, K. Mima, Yu
Lin, K. Shibata for fundamental, basic, applied, laser, space, solar/astro
plasmas, respectively. Springer Nature provided RMPP flyer as attached.
HP will open from July 1 ready for submission. The publication will start
hopefully from January , 2017.
We have many committed authors including S. Chandrasekhar prize
laureates of plasma physics such as Prof. S. Ichimaru, Prof. P. Kaw, and Prof.
D. Melrose. We also have number of committed authors to be announced at
appropriate time.
If you have particular proposal, you may send the proposal to me.
We recommend Latex but can also accept word format.
Typical length of paper is 30 pages but not limited since this is E-journal.
There is no page charge but the authors can get US 100$ book voucher (onlyfor Springer book) up to 35 authors annually.
Sincerely yours,
M. Kikuchi, DPP chairspringer.com

Reviews ofModern Plasma Physics•• Provides outstanding review articles on current research
trends and works, and key findings by leading scientists•• Publishes seminal review articles by S. Chandrasekhar Prizelaureates, which provide examples of lasting important works•• Provides full coverage of topics in plasma physics and itsapplications

Aims and Scope
This international review journal is led by the Division of Plasma Physics of the Association of Asia PacificPhysical Societies. It aims to be a flagship in the field of plasma physics and its application, and to publish
cutting-edge reviews and tutorials of modern plasma physics. In particular, selected reviews by leading
researchers and seminal reviews by S. Chandrasekhar Prize laureates are published. The journal covers allfields of plasma physics including fundamental and applied physics relevant to natural and laboratory
plasmas. Chief among these are:•• Fundamental physics•• Nuclear and fusion physics•• Astrophysics•• Geophysics•• Laser science•• Applied physics

Review articles in the journal are characterized not only by their excellent quality, but also their high readability. Therefore the published articles serve as authoritative materials for graduate students and young
researchers less familiar with the fields covered.
