L'Astronomy & Geophysics (A&G) è una rivista scientifica e trade magazine che esce due volte al mese e viene prodotta dall'OUP per conto della RAS. Pubblica una misto di contenuti che interessano astronomi e geofisici: news reports, interviews, topical reviews, historical investigations, obituaries, meeting reports e aggiornamenti sulle attività della RAS. Full-length articles are peer reviewed.

A&G was formed in 1997 as a 'glossy' replacement for the Quarterly Journal of the Royal Astronomical Society (QJRAS; 1960–1996); it continues the same volume numbering from QJRAS. Sin dal suo inizio e fino al 2018 leditor-in-chief è il professore Sue Bowler dell'University of Leeds..

Finalità[modifica | modifica wikitesto]

The journal covers astronomy, astrophysics, cosmology, planetary science, solar-terrestrial physics, global and regional geophysics, and the history of these subjects. It also publishes thematic articles regarding interdisciplinary research, science policy, news, opinions, correspondence, and book and software reviews. Royal Astronomical Society communications about events and people and obituaries are also within this journal's purview.[1][2][3][4]

Furthermore, in keeping with the tradition of the Quarterly Journal of the Royal Astronomical Society, it publishes discussions of fundamental science and scientific debates. The journal also functions as a channel of communication between the membership, the Council, and the Society's Officers.[1][2][3]

Contributions to Astronomy & Geophysics are not restricted to RAS members.[1][2][3]

The front cover of an edition of the Quarterly Journal of the Royal Astronomical Society

The Quarterly Journal of the Royal Astronomical Society (Q. J. R. Astron. Soc, ISSN 0035-8738 (WC · ACNP)) was published by the Royal Astronomical Society from September 1960 to December 1996, and was produced by Blackwell Science in its later period. During that time 37 volumes were issued. The journal included articles reviewing modern astronomy or geophysics, discussions about research topics, meeting reports, contributions about the history of science, and reports of astronomical research groups and institutes. It gave less emphasis to detailed scientific research papers, which instead were published in the society's Monthly Notices. (ISSN 0308-3322 (WC · ACNP)).[7][8][9]

Before 1960 the Royal Astronomical Society had published proceedings of its activities in its Monthly Notices alongside research papers, and published research reviews in its Occasional Notes. The Quarterly Journal was established in 1960 to free the Monthly Notices to concentrate on original research, and the Occasional Notes were discontinued.
