2021 Impact Factor – over 1 and the highest ever
With our origins in physics publishing, we are always pleased when our physics journals do well. We are pleased to report that the impact factor for EPJ Applied Physics has increased by 18% to 1.168. Although still a modest impact factor, it nevertheless builds on last year’s increase of 58%.
2020 Journal Impact Factor: Increase for EPJ AP
EPJ AP – The European Physical Journal Applied Physics is pleased to share the good news that the Journal Citation Reports™, released recently by Clarivate Analytics, show its 2020 Journal Impact Factor™ has increased by 58% from 0.630 to 0.993. In addition, its current CiteScore is 1.3.

Suzanne Giorgio and Damien Jacob join EPJ AP as Editors-in-Chief – forging closer ties with the Société Française des Microscopies
EPJ Applied Physics (EPJ AP) is pleased to announce the appointment of Professor Suzanne Giorgio and Professor Damien Jacob as the journal’s new Editors-in-Chief. They have already started work at the journal taking over from Professor Virginie Serin and Professor Luis Viña who served tirelessly from 2015.
Professor Giorgio and Professor Jacob are both associated with the Société Française des Microscopies (Sfμ) with which EPJ AP is published in partnership. Suzanne Giorgio is the General Secretary and Damien Jacob is currently vice-President having been President from 2018-2019.
Suzanne Giorgio is Professor in Physics and Materials Sciences at Aix Marseille University, France and has been the Head of the Department of Materials Engineering of Polytech for ten years. She works at the Interdisciplinary Center of Nanosciences of Marseille (CINAM), which is known for research in the design, development and study of nano-objects or nano structured materials and surfaces, at the border of physics, chemistry and life sciences.
Damien Jacob is Professor in Physics at University of Lille, France, and head of the Master of Physics programme. He conducts his research at the UMET laboratory dealing with the microstructural and structural characterization of materials using TEM and advanced electron diffraction methods. He is also head of the Electron Microscopy Facilities of the University of Lille.
EPJ AP originates from the merger, in 1998, of the Journal de Physique III and Microscopy Microanalysis Microstructures. In their first editorial back in 1998, C. Colliex and M. Sauzade stated as their main aim “…to initiate within a European perspective the basis of an international journal of Applied Physics.” This “European perspective” is much in evidence – EPJ AP is one of the European Physical Journal (EPJ) series of peer-reviewed journals covering the whole spectrum of physics and related interdisciplinary subjects. It is also recognised by the European Physical Society.
Throughout its existence, EPJ AP has sought to increase its global reach and to encourage and report on recent research and progress in applied physics. As they move ahead in their stewardship of the journal, Suzanne and Damien will aim to maintain and develop the high quality of published articles and to develop partnerships with learned societies in France, Europe and beyond. They will be supported by an experienced, international editorial board of experts drawn from all fields of applied physics.
EPJ Applied Physics article classified as ‘highly cited’ in Essential Science Indicators
An article from the EDP Sciences journal EPJ Applied Physics has been recognised as a highly cited paper on Web of Science using data from Essential Science Indicators. Only the top 1% of articles achieve this status.
Essential Science Indicators, hosted on the InCites platform, collates data on highly cited papers and shares it with Web of Science from Clarivate Analytics. These papers sit within the top 1% of each of ESI’s 22 subject areas and are defined as “…this highly cited paper received enough citations to place it in the top 1% of its academic field based on a highly cited threshold for the field and publication year.”
“Recent advances in the understanding of homogeneous dielectric barrier discharges” (Massines et al., 2009) discusses the physics of homogeneous dielectric barrier discharges at atmospheric pressure along with the mechanisms controlling homogeneity during gas breakdown and discharge development.
