Introduction
According to the AIP website, “AIP Advances is a fully open access, online-only community-led journal, covering all areas of applied physical science,” and it is funded by “an author-pays model.” The journal articles will go through both a “pre-publication peer review process” and a post-publication review process conducted by the community of users “through the implementation of web 2.0 commenting and ranking tools.” [1]
The debut issue of AIP Advances was published in March 2011. AIP Advances is published by “AIP Publishing, a division of the American Institute of Physics (AIP).” [2]
