APS is gearing up to launch a new member of the Physical Review family of journals. PRX Quantum will be a highly selective, open access journal focused on quantum information science and technology with an emphasis on research with lasting and profound impact. The new journal is expected to open for submissions in the coming months, publish its first peer-reviewed content in the second half of the year, and waive article publication charges (APCs) for all submissions received in 2020.

"PRX Quantum will expand on the excellence and innovation of Physical Review X (PRX), and provide a home for and connection between the numerous research communities that make up quantum information research, from pure and applied sciences to engineering, technology, computer science, and beyond," said APS Editor in Chief Michael Thoennessen.
