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:
“I have no purpose to introduce political and social equality between the white and black races. There is a physical difference between the two, which, in my judgement, will probably for ever forbid their living together upon the footing of perfect equality; and inasmuch as it becomes a necessity that there must be a difference, I ... am in favour of the race to which I belong having the superior position.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“...some sort of false logic has crept into our schools, for the people whom I have seen doing housework or cooking know nothing of botany or chemistry, and the people who know botany and chemistry do not cook or sweep. The conclusion seems to be, if one knows chemistry she must not cook or do housework.”
—Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)
“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 (1803–1882)
“Now the twitching stops. Now you are still. We are through with physiology and theology, physics begins.”
—Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)
