Physical Sciences and Technology

The Physical Sciences and Technology (PhST) was founded in 2014. The journal is established and published by Al-Farabi Kazakh National University.

PhST is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes cutting-edge multidisciplinary research and review articles across all areas of fundamental and applied physics and the transition of those findings into new and innovative technologies. The journal serves as an international platform for researchers, engineers, and academicians to disseminate theoretical, experimental, and applied studies that contribute to the advancement of modern physical sciences and technological innovations. The journal is published on a regular basis twice a year and follows an open-access policy.

Physical Sciences and Technology (PhST) publishes original research articles and high-quality review papers that advance the understanding of fundamental physical principles, theoretical models, experimental techniques, and technological applications across a wide range of physics-related disciplines. The journal maintains a rigorous peer-review process, high editorial and ethical standards, and a strong commitment to open-access publishing, ensuring the scientific quality, transparency, and broad accessibility of all published research.
