Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. or PCCP) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal publishing original (primary) research and review articles on any aspect of physical chemistry, chemical physics, and biophysical chemistry. It is published weekly by the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) on behalf of seventeen participating societies.
Philip Earis is the editor of PCCP and the present chairman of the Editorial Board is Pekka Pyykkö, Professor of Chemistry at University of Helsinki. The Editorial Board comprises leading international scientists who meet regularly to discuss all scientific matters concerned with the Journal; in particular the standards necessary for the acceptance of papers for publication, the standards of refereeing, and ways and means of acquiring suitable papers for publication.
PCCP replaced Faraday Transactions in 1999; it continues a close association with the Faraday Division of the RSC and the unique Faraday Discussions meetings and publications.
Biophysical chemistry is a rapidly expanding area of physical chemistry, and biophysical papers are an important part of PCCP. PCCP has been selected by the US National Library of Medicine for inclusion in MEDLINE, thereby increasing its visibility to the biophysical and biological communities. Significant and newsworthy articles appearing in PCCP are also featured in the RSC supplements Highlights in Chemical Science, Highlights in Chemical Technology and Highlights in Chemical Biology. PCCP hosts the RSC publication, Highlights in Chemical Science.

Famous quotes containing the words physical, chemistry, chemical and/or physics:
“Even the simple act that we call going to visit a person of our acquaintance is in part an intellectual act. We fill the physical appearance of the person we see with all the notions we have about him, and in the totality of our impressions about him, these notions play the most important role.”
—Marcel Proust (18711922)
“If thought makes free, so does the moral sentiment. The mixtures of spiritual chemistry refuse to be analyzed.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“We do not want actions, but men; not a chemical drop of water, but rain; the spirit that sheds and showers actions, countless, endless actions.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“Mathematics should be mixed not only with physics but with ethics.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
