AI Thread Summary
For those seeking a physics journal that balances technical content without being overly advanced, several recommendations are made. Physics Today and the American Physical Society's website (physics.aps.org) are noted as solid options. The Journal of Applied Physics is also suggested for its relevance. Additionally, the American Journal of Physics is mentioned as a worthwhile consideration. Overall, the discussion emphasizes finding a journal that meets a middle ground in technicality for readers interested in physics.

Hi -
I'm looking for a decent physics journal, more technical than, say, New Scientist but not necessarily really high-level stuff. Right now I'm looking at physicstoday.org, physics.aps.org and http://iopscience.iop.org/0034-4885", are these any good? I'm interested in any recommendations you have. Thanks.

Try the Journal of Applied Physics. I like the physics.aps.org you linked.

I would also like to see other suggestions.

Nearly everything seems to be research-adjacent: string theory, quantum field theory, quantum optics, cosmology, soft matter physics, black hole radiation, etc. What I don’t see are the kinds of “second-pass fundamentals” I was hoping for, things like...

Thread 'Applied Math PhD candidate but I hate group theory'

TL;DR Summary: I want to do a PhD in applied math but I hate group theory, is this a big problem? Hello, I am a second-year math and physics double major with a minor in data science. I just finished group theory (today actually), and it was my least favorite class in all of university so far. It doesn't interest me, and I am also very bad at it compared to other math courses I have done. The other courses I have done are calculus I-III, ODEs, Linear Algebra, and Prob/Stats. Is it a...
