Acoustical Physics

Acoustical Physics is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal devoted to research in acoustics. The journal was established in 2000 and is published bimonthly by Springer Science+Business Media, within the wider Springer Nature publishing group. Its subject coverage spans both theoretical and applied work, positioning it at the intersection of physics, engineering, geophysics, ocean science, materials research, and related technical disciplines. The journal addresses acoustics as a broad scientific field rather than limiting itself to a single application area. Its coverage includes physical acoustics, underwater acoustics, and acoustical engineering, alongside other branches of research concerned with the generation, transmission, measurement, modeling, and application of sound and elastic waves. This scope allows the publication to serve researchers working on basic mechanisms as well as specialists developing practical acoustic technologies and measurement methods. As a peer-reviewed journal, Acoustical Physics functions primarily as an academic publishing brand rather than as a consumer-facing product or commercial service brand. Its principal offering is the recurring journal publication, supported by editorial review, scholarly dissemination, and inclusion in major abstracting and indexing systems. The journal is listed in Current Contents databases covering engineering and the physical, chemical, and earth sciences; EBSCO databases; Ei Compendex; Inspec; ProQuest databases; Science Citation Index Expanded; and Scopus. These services increase the discoverability of its articles among researchers, universities, laboratories, and engineering organizations. The journal's editorial leadership includes Igor B. Esipov, identified as editor-in-chief and affiliated with Gubkin Russian State University of Oil and Gas. The publication has an international research orientation through its indexing, subject scope, and Springer distribution infrastructure, while retaining a clear connection to the Russian acoustics research community. No separate corporate ownership, financial information, or standalone commercial operating structure is identified in the available reference material. According to the 2024 Journal Citation Reports, Acoustical Physics had an impact factor of 1.2. This metric describes citation performance for the journal and should not be interpreted as revenue, valuation, or a measure of the quality of any individual article. Overall, the brand is positioned as a specialist scholarly venue for acoustics research, combining Russian academic roots with international academic distribution and indexing.

Acoustical Physics was established in 2000 as a peer-reviewed journal serving the scientific and engineering study of acoustics. From its inception, the publication has covered acoustics as a multidisciplinary field, combining fundamental investigations of sound and wave behavior with applied research intended for engineering, environmental, industrial, and scientific use. The journal's subject range includes physical acoustics, underwater acoustics, and acoustical engineering. This scope reflects the breadth of modern acoustics, which can involve wave propagation, interactions between sound and matter, acoustic measurement, signal analysis, marine and underwater environments, and the design of acoustic systems. By publishing across these areas, the journal provides a venue for both theoretical researchers and practitioners working on technical applications. Acoustical Physics is published bimonthly by Springer Science+Business Media. Its association with Springer provides access to an established academic publishing and distribution network, while the journal remains closely associated with the Russian scientific community. The editor-in-chief is Igor B. Esipov of Gubkin Russian State University of Oil and Gas. Over time, the journal's visibility has been supported by abstracting and indexing in a range of major scholarly services. These include Current Contents databases focused on engineering, computing, technology, and the physical, chemical, and earth sciences, as well as EBSCO, Ei Compendex, Inspec, ProQuest, Science Citation Index Expanded, and Scopus. Such indexing places the journal within the standard discovery infrastructure used by researchers, libraries, universities, and technical organizations. The journal's current identity is that of an active specialist publication rather than a broad popular-science title. Its brand value derives from peer review, subject specialization, continuity of publication, and international discoverability. The 2024 Journal Citation Reports recorded an impact factor of 1.2. No further ownership changes, major campaigns, scandals, corporate transactions, or financial disclosures are identified in the supplied reference material.
