6 SUGGESTIONS Look for this indication KALEIDOSCOPE Look for this indication Editors Suggestions Included in the Physical Review journal collection, Editors Suggestions highlight select papers of particular interest, importance, or clarity. APS Editors choose these exceptional papers weekly to encourage the exploration of other areas of physics. Editors Suggestions can be found on the respective online journal page. Kaleidoscope Many Physical Review articles contain images that are both scientifically important and visually appealing. A selection of these images appears in Kaleidoscope to promote interest in the aesthetics of physics. Images are selected solely for their artistic appeal. Images from recently published papers appear on our main page and in an online archive. Creative Commons Authors in most Physical Review journals may pay an article-processing charge whereby their accepted manuscripts are available barrier-free and open access on publication. These manuscripts are published under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License (CC-BY), the most permissive of the CC licenses, granting authors and others the right to copy, distribute, transmit, and adapt the work, provided that proper credit is given. This alternative is in addition to traditional subscriptionfunded publication; authors may choose one or the other for their accepted papers. More information about the APS article-processing charges can be found online at journals.aps.org/author-information. 4 APS Journals 2016

APS Tiers APS continues its efforts to achieve a fair distribution of costs between major research subscribers, small undergraduate institutions, and those in between. The APS Council supports the philosophy that the cost of research activity should be distributed to reflect the way different institutions utilize the literature. In particular, it should reflect both the value of the product to the reader (students, researchers, etc.) and the value of the journal as a distributor of research information (authors, institutions). Online Subscriptions All APS journals are hosted on the APS platform. This unified and simplified configuration provides a consolidated set of personalized services for readers, authors, and referees. The online journals are the definitive versions of the APS publications: Physical Review Applied Physical Review Letters Reviews of Modern Physics Physical Review A D Physical Review E Physical Review X Physical Review Accelerators and Beams Physical Review Physics Education Research With a PROLA subscription or an APS-ALL or PR-ALL package, usage statistics will also include: Physical Review Series I & II IP Policy APS online institutional subscribers are recognized and authorized by their Internet Protocol (IP) address. APS will only accept IP ranges owned by the subscriber or that are for the sole use of the subscriber. APS does not allow IP sharing across multiple institutions or accounts. If an IP is submitted in conflict with a pre-existing IP address in the APS system, both institutions will be notified to resolve the conflict. Systematic or programmatic downloading via granted IP access is prohibited. A more detailed explanation of the APS IP Policy is available online at librarians.aps.org/institutional.html.
