Recently featured in EPL:
Demographic noise can lead to the spontaneous formation of species
by T. Rogers, A. J. McKane & A. G. Rossberg
“When a collection of phenotypically diverse organisms compete with each other for limited resources, the population can evolve into tightly localised clusters. Past studies have neglected the effects of demographic noise and studied the…
EPS & PPA to launch journal platform
The Physics Publishing Alliance [PPA], in a joint initiative under the aegis of the European Physical Society [EPS], is bringing together a number of physics journals which have strong scientific and editorial links with European learned societies.
Regular selections of the best articles from the core journals will be made free to access, through the Physics Publishing Alliance Portal for Electronic Review [PPA PER], which will be embedded in the new EPS website…
EPL article highlighted in French newspaper Le Monde
An article published in EPL was featured in the French daily newspaper Le Monde on 29 November. The piece, ‘Comment la goutte d’eau lévite sur le fil de la scie’, concerns the article ‘Viscous mechanism for Leidenfrost propulsion on a ratchet’, by G. Dupeux, M. Le Merrer, G. Lagubeau, C. Clanet, S. Hardt and D. Quéré, which was published in volume 96, issue 5 of EPL.
“An evaporating drop placed on a ratchet self-propels, as discovered by Linke et al. in 2006. Sublimating platelets do the same, and we discuss here a possible viscous mechanism for these motions. We report that the flow of vapor below…

EPL publishes its first paper from the LHC
EPL has published its first article from the Large Hadron Collider, in the august issue this year. The paper, submitted by the TOTEM experiment, was entitled: ‘Proton-proton elastic scattering at the LHC energy of √s = 7 TeV’.
EPL looks forward to publishing other such results from the experiments at CERN in the future. The abstract from the paper follows…
EPL celebrates 25th anniversary
The 25th anniversary of EPL was celebrated at the symposium ‘Exploring the Frontiers of Physics’, which was held between 3-4 May at the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities, in Munich.
With 250 participants – including 90 students – and a broad range of lectures from a panel of leading researchers, the conference presented many opportunities for intensive exchanges between new and experienced scientists – especially at the symposium dinner, where each table was hosted by one of the speakers, or another senior scientist…
