The majority of AIP Journals use the superscript method for in-text citation. This means that there is a small, raised number, such as a 1,2,3 after the punctuation of a referenced content. These superscripts will be used in order of mention, so superscript 1 is used first, superscript 2 is used second, etc. Finally, a reference list of at the end of the article should be used in superscript order to give the full citation.
Alternative Arrangement:
Some AIP journals allow you to use the (Author Name, Year) in-text citation format. If you use this format, Arrange your reference list in alphabetical order.
The citation should be put in the following format:
Author, " Article title," Journal Title. Volume(Issue), Page (Year). DOI
Example:
T. A. Shelkovenko, S. A. Pikuz, and D. A. Hammer, “A review of projection radiography of plasma and biological objects in X-pinch radiation,” Plasma Phys. Rep. 42, 226 (2016). https://doi.org/10.1134/S1063780X16030065
AIP uses a series of standardized abbreviations for journal titles. Please see the Appendix G, or page 46 of the AIP Style Manual for these abbreviations.
