Acta Physica Polonica B 


In protest against the invasion of Russia (with the support of Belarus) on an independent and sovereign territory and the people of Ukraine, on March 1, 2022 Poland suspended scientific collaboration with the Russian Federation. Following the decision of the Rector of the Jagiellonian University, which suspends cooperation with Russian universities and research centers, Acta Physica Polonica B stops publishing articles by authors with affiliation to institutions from the Russian Federation and also from the Republic of Belarus.

Acta Physica Polonica B is an abstracted, refereed journal published by the Jagiellonian University, Kraków, Poland, in cooperation with the Polish Academy of Arts and Sciences.

Since 1999 all current and past articles are freely available on an Open Access basis and under the conditions
of Creative Common License, CC-BY 4.0. Starting from January 1, 2014 we are partially funded by SCOAP3.

Old articles published in Acta Physica Polonica (years 1921-1969) are available on request.

To prevent plagiarism we use the Crossref Similarity Check service.

Acta Physica Polonica B covers the following areas of physics:

  • General and Mathematical Physics
  • Particle Physics and Field Theory
  • Nuclear Physics
  • Theory of Relativity and Astrophysics
  • Statistical Physics

No fee is charged from authors.


Recognizing the trends of the times, the Editorial Board of Acta Physica Polonica B has decided to publish both series of our journal online only, starting January 2022. All the articles will be freely available on the Open Access basis, as they have been since 1999. Note that our web site also provides access to all past articles of Acta Physica Polonica B.

At the same time, understanding the specific needs of the conference proceedings published in Acta Physica Polonica B Proceeding Supplement we have decided to offer a possibility of producing printed copies of the conference issues, if ordered by the organizers.

T. Veltman

We have a pleasure to present a special double volume of Acta Physica Polonica B dedicated to the late Martinus Justinus Godefriedus Veltman, a member of the APPB International Editorial Council, lecturer at the Cracow School of Theoretical Physics in 1977 and 1994, and the author of two the most cited articles ever published in our journal.

This volume is available online. A printed copy can be purchased from the editorial office - see the details.
