- Virtual Journals in Science and Technology. Developed by the American Institute of Physics and the American Physical Society, each journal provides a collection of relevant papers from a broad range of source journals. Most articles in these "virtual" journals are available in full-text to ANU staff and students. Each journal focuses one of the following research topics: superconductivity,
biological physics, Nanoscale systems, quantum computing & cryptography, and
ultrafast phenomena.
