I look forward to advancing research that bridges computational innovation and the discovery of new physics in transformative materials. - Hongjun Xiang, Fudan University, China Hongjun Xiang is a distinguished professor in the Department of Physics, Fudan University, and recipient of The National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars. Specializing in computational condensed matter physics, he has made seminal contributions to multiferroic material modeling and computational method development. Key achievements include proposing unified models for spin-order induced ferroelectricity, devising the four-state method for calculating magnetic interactions and magnetoelectric coupling strength, and introducing the concept of fractional quantum ferroelectricity. He developed the PASP (Property Analysis and Simulation Package for materials) software package, which includes several machine learning algorithms. He has published more than 200 papers (including 30+ in Physical Review Letters). Recognitions include the ICTP Prize (2018), APS Fellowship (2021), Huang Kun Physics Award (2023), and the 2024 XPLORER PRIZE. SELECT ARTICLES AUTHORED BY PROF.

READ MORE > A Message from Purpose-Led Publishing When AIP Publishing, the American Physical Society, and IOP Publishing came together to form Purpose-Led Publishing, we made a promise to the global research community: that we would always, in no uncertain terms, put science first. At the core of that promise is the belief that fundamental science should be accessible to everybody for the benefit of all — and that any impediments to the free and open exchange of scientific concepts, research, or data run counter to the very spirit of science itself.   Purpose-Led Publishing believes there has never been a more important time to stand firm in support of independent, open science. We stand with those in the U.S. affected by recent events. We promise to continue to work hand-in-hand with the global scientific community to protect and preserve the integrity and ethical standards that serve as the bedrock of high-quality scholarly communications. We will not waver in our dedication to the community, our editorial policies will remain steadfast and true to our ethical standards, and we will, as always, make science our only shareholder.
