現(xiàn)代物理學(xué)的歷史哲學(xué)研究致力于對現(xiàn)代物理學(xué)的歷史哲學(xué)的各個方面的廣泛了解，包括天文學(xué)、化學(xué)等非生物科學(xué)的物理方面。主要的焦點是物理學(xué)，從19世紀(jì)中后期到現(xiàn)在，這段時間出現(xiàn)了一種理論物理學(xué)，在20世紀(jì)主導(dǎo)了精確科學(xué)。該雜志以國際為導(dǎo)向，從廣泛的角度發(fā)表文章。除了純粹的歷史或哲學(xué)論文，編輯們特別鼓勵結(jié)合這兩門學(xué)科的論文。編輯們也熱衷于發(fā)表物理學(xué)家以及物理學(xué)歷史和哲學(xué)專家感興趣的論文。

Studies in History and Philosophy of Modern Physics is devoted to all aspects of the history and philosophy of modern physics broadly understood, including physical aspects of astronomy, chemistry and other non-biological sciences. The primary focus is on physics from the mid/late-nineteenth century to the present, the period of emergence of the kind of theoretical physics that has come to dominate the exact sciences in the twentieth century. The journal is internationally oriented with contributions from a wide range of perspectives. In addition to purely historical or philosophical papers, the editors particularly encourage papers that combine these two disciplines. The editors are also keen to publish papers of interest to physicists, as well as specialists in history and philosophy of physics.
