(Interim) Chief Editor of Physical Review X, American Physical Society, USA.

报告摘要：

PRX is published by the American Physical Society, a nonprofit membership society of scientists. Its mission goal is to select around 250 *landmark* papers a year from all fields of physics and showcase them to a broad and multidisciplinary readership.Is your paper a good match for PRX? Or asked differently, what papers qualify as *landmark* papers?How do the PRX editors actually select such papers? Are such selections always accurate? How can you, as an author, navigate PRX’s editorial and peer-review process effectively and get the most out of your interactions with the editors and referees?I will use the talk to discuss with you how to answer these questions.Many of these questions do not have a black-and-white answer in the case of a single paper.Open-minded, reasoned, and constructive dialogues amongst the authors, the editors, and the referees are key to making each concrete process a meaningful and productive experience, and sometimes even a pleasure, for everyone.
