\begin{abstract}
|
|
This article explains and illustrates the use of \LaTeX\ in preparing manuscripts
|
|
for submission to the American Journal of Physics (AJP). While it is not a
|
|
comprehensive reference, we hope it will suffice for the needs of most
|
|
AJP authors. For help on a specific question, an internet search engine will
|
|
generally return many useful answers if the term ``latex'' is included in the
|
|
search box.

|
\LaTeX\ is typesetting software that is widely used by mathematicians
|
|
and physicists because it is so good at typesetting equations. It is
|
|
also completely programmable, so it can be configured to produce
|
|
documents with almost any desired formatting, and to automatically
|
|
number equations, figures, endnotes, and so on.
|
|
|
|
To prepare manuscripts for the American Journal of Physics (AJP),
|
|
you should use the REV\TeX\ 4.1 format for Physical Review B
|
|
preprints, as indicated in the \texttt{documentclass} line at the top
|
|
of this article's source file. (If you're already familiar with
|
|
\LaTeX\ and have used other \LaTeX\ formats, please resist the
|
|
temptation to use them, or to otherwise override REV\TeX's formatting
|
|
conventions, in manuscripts that you prepare for AJP.)
|
|
|
|
This sample article is intended as a tutorial, template, and reference for
|
|
AJP authors, illustrating most of the \LaTeX\ and REV\TeX\ features that
|
|
authors will need. For a more comprehensive introduction to \LaTeX,
|
|
numerous books and online references are available.\cite{latexsite,
|
|
wikibook, latexbook} Documentation for the REV\TeX\ package
|
|
can be found on the APS web site.\cite{revtex}
|
|
|
|
\LaTeX\ is free software, available for Unix/Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows
|
|
operating systems. For downloading and installation instructions, follow
|
|
the links from the \LaTeX\ web site.\cite{latexsite} It is most
|
|
convenient\cite{cloudLaTeX} to install a ``complete \TeX\ distribution,''
|
|
which will include \LaTeX, the underlying \TeX\ engine, macro packages
|
|
such as REV\TeX, a large collection of fonts, and GUI tools for editing
|
|
and viewing your documents. To test your installation, try to process
|
|
this sample article.

\section{Ordinary text and paragraphs}
|
|
|
|
To typeset a paragraph of ordinary text, just type the text in your source
|
|
file like this. Put line breaks
|
|
wherever
|
|
you
|
|
want, and don't worry about extra spaces between words, which \LaTeX\ will ignore. You can almost always trust \LaTeX\ to make your paragraphs look good, with neatly justified margins. % Long lines of text are fine, since most editing programs will wrap them automatically.
|
|
|
|
To start a new paragraph, just leave a blank line in your source file.
|
|
|
|
A few punctuation characters require special treatment in \LaTeX. There
|
|
are no ``smart quotes,'' so you need to use the left-quote key (at the
|
|
top-left corner of the keyboard) for a left quote, and the ordinary apostrophe
|
|
key (next to the semi-colon) for a right quote. Hit either key twice for double
|
|
quotes, which are standard in American English. Don't use shift-apostrophe
|
|
to make double quotes. Use single quotes when they're nested inside a
|
|
double-quoted quotation. When a period or comma belongs at the end of
|
|
a quotation, put it inside the quotes---even if it's not part of what you're
|
|
quoting.\cite{nevermindlogic}
|
|
|
|
Your fingers also need to distinguish between a hyphen (used for
|
|
multi-word adjectives and for hyphenated names like Lennard-Jones), an
|
|
en-dash (formed by typing two consecutive hyphens, and used for ranges
|
|
of numbers like 1--100), and an em-dash (formed out of three consecutive
|
|
hyphens and used as an attention-getting punctuation symbol---preferably
|
|
not too often).
|
|
|
|
Some non-alphanumeric symbols like \$, \&, and \% have special meanings
|
|
in a \LaTeX\ source file, so if you want these symbols to appear in the output,
|
|
you need to precede them with a backslash.
|
|
|
|
There are also special codes for generating the various accents
|
|
that can appear in foreign-language words and names, such as Amp\`ere
|
|
and Schr\"odinger.\cite{FontEncodingComment}
|
|
|
|
You can switch to \textit{italic}, \textbf{bold}, and \texttt{typewriter} fonts
|
|
when necessary. Use curly braces to enclose the text that is to appear in
|
|
the special font. In general, \LaTeX\ uses curly braces to group characters
|
|
together for some common transformation.
|
|
|
|
Notice that any word or symbol preceded by the backslash character is
|
|
a special instruction to \LaTeX, typically used to produce a special
|
|
symbol or to modify the typeset output in some way. These instructions
|
|
are also called \textit{control sequences} or \textit{macros}.
|
|
After you've used \LaTeX\ for a while, the little finger of your right
|
|
hand will be really good at finding the backslash and curly-brace keys.
|
|
|
|
|
|
\section{Math symbols}
|
|
|
|
To type mathematical symbols and expressions within a paragraph, put
|
|
them between \$ signs, which indicate \textit{math mode}: $ab + 2c/d = e-3f$.
|
|
\LaTeX\ ignores spaces in math mode, using its own algorithms to determine
|
|
the right amount of space between symbols. Notice that an ordinary letter
|
|
like~$x$, when used in math mode, is automatically typeset in italics.
|
|
This is why you need to use math mode for all mathematical
|
|
expressions (except plain numerals), even when they don't contain any
|
|
special symbols. But don't use math mode to italicize ordinary \textit{words}.
|
|
|
|
Besides ordinary letters and numerals and common arithmetic symbols, math
|
|
mode provides a host of other characters that you can access via control
|
|
sequences.\cite{wikimathpage} These include Greek letters like $\pi$ and
|
|
$\Delta$ (note capitalization), symbols for operations and relations such
|
|
as $\cdot$, $\times$, $\pm$, $\gg$, $\leq$, $\sim$, $\approx$, $\propto$,
|
|
and $\rightarrow$, and special symbols like $\nabla$, $\partial$, $\infty$,
|
|
and~$\hbar$. You can decorate symbols with dots ($\dot x$ or $\ddot x$),
|
|
arrows ($\vec\mu$), bars ($\bar x$ or $\overline m$), hats ($\hat x$),
|
|
tildes ($\tilde f$ or $\widetilde w$), and radicals ($\sqrt\pi$, $\sqrt{2/3}$).
|
|
Parentheses and square brackets require no special keystrokes, but you
|
|
can also make curly braces and angle brackets: $\{\langle\ \cdots\ \rangle\}$.
|
|
|
|
To make subscripts and superscripts, use the underscore and caret
|
|
(circumflex) symbols on your keyboard: $x^\mu$, $g_{\mu\nu}$, $\delta^i_j$,
|
|
$\epsilon^{ijk}$. Notice that you need to put the subscript or superscript
|
|
in curly braces if it's longer than one character (or one control sequence).
|
|
You can even make nested subscripts and superscripts, as in $e^{-x^2}$.
|
|
If a subscript consists of an entire word or word-like abbreviation,
|
|
we usually put it in plain Roman type: $x_\textrm{max}$. If you need to
|
|
put a subscript or superscript \textit{before} a symbol, use an empty
|
|
set of curly braces: ${}^{235}_{\ 92}\textrm{U}$. (Notice the trick of using
|
|
backslash-space put a space before the 92.)
|
|
|
|
\newcommand{\bE}{\mathbf{E}} % defines the abbreviation \bE, used below
|
|
|
|
To make boldface letters you use the \verb/\mathbf/ control sequence, as in
|
|
$\nabla\times\mathbf{E} = -\partial\mathbf{B}/\partial t$. For bold Greek
|
|
letters like $\boldsymbol{\omega}$, you need to use \verb/\boldsymbol/
|
|
instead. You can also use calligraphic ($\mathcal{E}$), Fraktur
|
|
($\mathfrak{D}$), and blackboard bold ($\mathbb{R}$) fonts, if you need them.
|
|
If you'll be using a symbol in a special font repeatedly, you can save
|
|
some keystrokes by defining an abbreviation for it; for example, the
|
|
definition \verb/\newcommand{\bE}{\mathbf{E}}/ allows you to type simply
|
|
\verb/\bE/ to get $\bE$.
|
|
|
|
Unit abbreviations, as in $1~\mathrm{eV} = 1.6\times10^{-19}~\mathrm{J}$,
|
|
should be in the plain Roman font, not italics. You can access this font
|
|
from math mode using \verb/\mathrm/. For function names like $\sin\theta$,
|
|
$\exp x$, and $\ln N!$, \LaTeX\ provides special control sequences,
|
|
which you should use instead of \verb/\mathrm/ whenever possible because
|
|
they work better with \LaTeX's automatic spacing algorithms.
|
|
|
|
But \LaTeX\ doesn't always get the spacing right in mathematical formulas.
|
|
In the previous paragraph we had to use the \verb/~/ symbol to
|
|
manually insert a space between each number and its units. The \verb/~/
|
|
symbol actually represents an unbreakable space, where \LaTeX\ will never
|
|
insert a line break. For occasional minor adjustments to the spacing
|
|
in a \LaTeX\ expression, you can insert or remove a little
|
|
space with \verb/\,/ and \verb/\!/. Use these macros sparingly,
|
|
because \LaTeX's default spacing rules will provide more consistency
|
|
within and among AJP articles. The most common use of \verb/\,/
|
|
is in expressions like $T\,dS - P\,dV$.
|
|
|
|
|
|
\section{Displayed equations}
|
|
\label{DispEqSection} % You can label sections for reference
|
|
|
|
When an equation is important and/or tall and/or complicated, you should
|
|
display it on a line by itself, with a number. To do this, you put
|
|
\verb/\begin{equation}/ before the equation and \verb/\end{equation}/
|
|
after it, as in % Note: never put a blank line before an equation.
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
\int_0^\infty \! \frac{x^3}{e^x - 1} \, dx = 6\sum_{k=1}^\infty \frac1{k^4} =
|
|
6\left(\frac{\pi^4}{90}\right) = \frac{\pi^4}{15}.
|
|
\end{equation}
|
|
% Don't put a blank line after the equation unless you're starting a new paragraph.
|
|
This example also shows how to make the sum and integral symbols, big parentheses,
|
|
% Don't use \left and \right for small parentheses; you'll get too much space around them.
|
|
and built-up fractions. (Don't put built-up fractions in a
|
|
non-displayed equation, because there won't be enough vertical space in
|
|
AJP's final, single-spaced paragraphs. Use the slashed form, $x^3/(e^x-1)$,
|
|
instead.)
|
|
|
|
If you want to refer to an equation elsewhere in your manuscript, you can
|
|
give it a label. For example, in the equation
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
\label{deriv}
|
|
\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t} \mathop{\longrightarrow}_{\Delta t\rightarrow0} \frac{dx}{dt}
|
|
= \lim_{\Delta t\rightarrow0} \frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}
|
|
\end{equation}
|
|
we've inserted \verb/\label{deriv}/ to label this equation
|
|
\texttt{deriv}.\cite{labelnames} To refer to
|
|
Eq.~(\ref{deriv}), we then type \verb/\ref{deriv}/.\cite{footnotes} Notice
|
|
that AJP's style conventions also require you to put the equation number in
|
|
parentheses when you refer to it, and to abbreviate ``Eq.''\ unless it's at
|
|
the beginning of a sentence.
|
|
|
|
Some equations require more complicated layouts. In the equation
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
E_n = (n + \tfrac12)\hbar, \quad \textrm{where}\ n = 0, 1, 2, \ldots,
|
|
\end{equation}
|
|
we've used \verb/\quad/ to leave a wide space and \verb/\textrm/ to put ``where''
|
|
in plain Roman type. To create a matrix or column vector, as in
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
\begin{bmatrix}
|
|
t' \\
|
|
x' \\
|
|
\end{bmatrix}
|
|
=
|
|
\begin{pmatrix}
|
|
\gamma & -\beta\gamma \\
|
|
-\beta\gamma & \gamma \\
|
|
\end{pmatrix}
|
|
\begin{bmatrix}
|
|
t \\
|
|
x \\
|
|
\end{bmatrix},
|
|
\end{equation}
|
|
you can use the \texttt{pmatrix} and/or \texttt{bmatrix} environment,
|
|
for matrices delimited by parentheses and/or brackets. There's also
|
|
a plain \texttt{matrix} environment that omits the delimiters.
|
|
In this and other examples of \LaTeX\ tables and arrays, the \verb/&/
|
|
character serves as a ``tab'' to separate columns, while the \verb/\\/
|
|
control sequence marks the end of a row.
|
|
|
|
For a list of related equations, with nicely lined-up equals signs,
|
|
use the \texttt{eqnarray} environment:
|
|
\begin{eqnarray}
|
|
\oint \vec B \cdot d\vec\ell & = & -\frac{d\Phi_E}{dt} ; \\
|
|
\oint \vec E \cdot d\vec\ell & = & \mu_0\epsilon_0\frac{d\Phi_B}{dt} + \mu_0 I.
|
|
\end{eqnarray}
|
|
You can also use \texttt{eqnarray} to make a multi-line equation, for example,
|
|
\begin{eqnarray}
|
|
\mathcal{Z}
|
|
& = & 1 + e^{-(\epsilon-\mu)/kT} + e^{-2(\epsilon-\mu)/kT} + \cdots \nonumber \\
|
|
& = & 1 + e^{-(\epsilon-\mu)/kT} + (e^{-(\epsilon-\mu)/kT})^2 + \cdots \nonumber \\
|
|
& = & \frac{1}{1 - e^{-(\epsilon-\mu)/kT}}.
|
|
\end{eqnarray}
|
|
Here the first column of the second and third lines is empty. Note that you
|
|
can use \verb/\nonumber/ within any line to suppress the generation of
|
|
an equation number; just be sure that each multi-line equation has at least
|
|
one number.
|
|
|
|
Another commonly used structure is the \texttt{cases} environment, as in
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
m(T) =
|
|
\begin{cases}
|
|
0 & T > T_c \, , \\
|
|
\bigl(1 - [\sinh 2 \beta J]^{-4} \bigr)^{1/8} & T < T_c \, .
|
|
\end{cases}
|
|
\end{equation}
|
|
|
|
At AJP we require that you put correct punctuation before and after every
|
|
displayed equation, treating each equation as part of a correctly punctuated
|
|
English sentence.\cite{mermin} The preceding examples illustrate good
|
|
equation punctuation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
\section{Figures}
|
|
|
|
\LaTeX\ can import figures via the \verb/\includegraphics/ macro.
|
|
For AJP, you should embed this in the \texttt{figure} environment, which
|
|
can place the figure in various locations. This environment also lets
|
|
you add a caption (which AJP requires) and an optional label for referring
|
|
to the figure from elsewhere. See Fig.~\ref{gasbulbdata} for an example.
|
|
|
|
\begin{figure}[h!]
|
|
% The bracketed code determines the figure's placement: "h" stands for
|
|
% "here", telling LaTeX to put the figure as close to the current location
|
|
% as possible. The ! overrides LaTeX's tendency to try to find a location
|
|
% that it thinks is better. But don't agonize over the exact figure placement
|
|
% in your submitted manuscript. For your initial submission, just make sure
|
|
% each figure is reasonably close to where it's first referenced.
|
|
\centering
|
|
\includegraphics{GasBulbData.eps}
|
|
\caption{Pressure as a function of temperature for a fixed volume of air.
|
|
The three data sets are for three different amounts of air in the container.
|
|
For an ideal gas, the pressure would go to zero at $-273^\circ$C. (Notice
|
|
that this is a vector graphic, so it can be viewed at any scale without
|
|
seeing pixels.)}
|
|
\label{gasbulbdata}
|
|
\end{figure}
|
|
|
|
Most \LaTeX\ implementations can import a variety of graphics formats.
|
|
For graphs and line drawings you should use vector (i.e., resolution-independent)
|
|
graphics saved in encapsulated PostScript (.eps), scalable vector graphics (.svg),
|
|
or portable document format (.pdf). Most good graphics software systems can
|
|
save to these formats. Please don't use a rasterized graphics format
|
|
(such as .jpg or .png or .tiff) for graphs or line drawings.
|
|
|
|
\begin{figure}[h!]
|
|
\centering
|
|
\includegraphics[width=5in]{ThreeSunsets.jpg}
|
|
% Notice the width specification. Photographs should normally have a
|
|
% resolution of approximately 300 pixels per inch when printed, that is,
|
|
% a total width of about 1000 pixels for a photo to be printed one column
|
|
% wide. Note also that this included photo is in .jpg format even though
|
|
% a .tiff version should be submitted for final production.
|
|
\caption{Three overlaid sequences of photos of the setting sun, taken
|
|
near the December solstice (left), September equinox (center), and
|
|
June solstice (right), all from the same location at 41$^\circ$ north
|
|
latitude. The time interval between images in each sequence is approximately
|
|
four minutes.}
|
|
\label{sunsets}
|
|
\end{figure}
|
|
|
|
For photographs and other images that are \textit{inherently} made
|
|
of pixels (that is, rasters or bitmaps), \LaTeX\ can
|
|
(usually) handle the .jpg and .png formats as well as .eps and .pdf.
|
|
Figure~\ref{sunsets} is a .jpg example. For final production, however,
|
|
AJP prefers that raster images be in .tiff format. Most \LaTeX\ systems
|
|
can't import .tiff images, so we recommend using .png or .jpg with \LaTeX\
|
|
for your initial submission, while saving a higher-quality .tiff version
|
|
to submit as a separate file after your manuscript is conditionally accepted
|
|
for publication.
|
|
|
|
Please refer to the AJP editor's web site\cite{editorsite} for more details
|
|
on AJP's requirements for figure preparation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
\section{Tables}
|
|
|
|
Tables are somewhat similar to figures: You use the \texttt{table} environment
|
|
to let them ``float'' to an appropriate location, and to automatically number
|
|
them and format their captions. But whereas the content of a figure comes
|
|
from an external file, the content of a table is typeset directly in \LaTeX.
|
|
For that you use the \texttt{tabular} environment, which uses \verb/&/ and
|
|
\verb/\\/ for tabbing and ending rows, just like the \texttt{matrix} and
|
|
\texttt{eqnarray} environments discussed in Section~\ref{DispEqSection}.
|
|
|
|
Table~\ref{bosons} shows a fairly simple example. Notice that the caption comes
|
|
before the table itself, so it will appear above the table instead of below.
|
|
The \texttt{ruledtabular} environment, which surrounds \texttt{tabular},
|
|
provides the double horizontal lines at the top and bottom, and stretches
|
|
the table horizontally out to the margins. (This will look funny for tables
|
|
intended to fill only one column of a final journal page, but there's no
|
|
need to worry about such cosmetic details.)
|
|
|
|
\begin{table}[h!]
|
|
\centering
|
|
\caption{Elementary bosons}
|
|
\begin{ruledtabular}
|
|
\begin{tabular}{l c c c c p{5cm}}
|
|
% The codes above determine the horizontal alignment in each column.
|
|
% Options are l (left), r (right), c (centered), and p (paragraph).
|
|
% The p option allows an entry to be broken into multiple lines, and
|
|
% therefore requires a width specification, in this case 5 centimeters.
|
|

|
|
\hline % horizontal line to separate headings from data
|
|
Photon & $\gamma$ & \ \ 0 & 1 & 1905 & Electrically charged particles \\
|
|
Gluons & $g$ & \ \ 0 & 1 & 1978 & Strongly interacting particles (quarks and gluons) \\
|
|
Weak charged bosons & $W^\pm$ & \ 82 & 1 & 1983 & Quarks, leptons, $W^\pm$, $Z^0$, $\gamma$ \\
|
|
Weak neutral boson & $Z^0$ & \ 91 & 1 & 1983 & Quarks, leptons, $W^\pm$, $Z^0$ \\
|
|
Higgs boson & $H$ & 126 & 0 & 2012 & Massive particles (according to theory) \\
|
|
\end{tabular}
|
|
\end{ruledtabular}
|
|
\label{bosons}
|
|
\end{table}
|
|
% Tables, like figure captions, should be moved to the end when you submit
|
|
% an editable manuscript for production, after conditional acceptance.
|
|
% Put the tables after the endnotes but before the figure captions.
|
|
|
|
Every table is a little bit different, and many tables will require
|
|
further tricks; see Refs.\ \onlinecite{wikibook} and~\onlinecite{latexbook}
|
|
for examples. Note that the AJP style does not ordinarily use lines
|
|
to separate rows and columns in the body of a table.
|
|
|
|
|
|
\section{Special formats}
|
|
|
|
\subsection{Block quotes} % In subsection headings, only the first word is capitalized.
|
|
|
|
If a quoted passage is long or important, you can use the \texttt{quote}
|
|
environment to typeset it as a block quote, as in this passage from The
|
|
Feynman Lectures:\cite{feynman}

A poet once said, ``The whole universe is in a glass of wine.'' We will
|
|
probably never know in what sense he meant that, for poets do not write
|
|
to be understood. But it is true that if we look at a glass of wine closely
|
|
enough we see the entire universe.

\subsection{Numbered lists}
|
|
|
|
To create a numbered list, use the \texttt{enumerate} environment and start
|
|
each entry with the \verb/\item/ macro:
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item You can't win.
|
|
\item You can't even break even.
|
|
\item You can't get out of the game.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
\subsection{Unnumbered lists}
|
|
|
|
For a bulleted list, just use \texttt{itemize} instead of \texttt{enumerate}:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Across a resistor, $\Delta V = \pm IR$.
|
|
\item Across a capacitor, $\Delta V = \pm Q/C$.
|
|
\item Across an inductor, $\Delta V = \pm L(dI/dt)$.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
\subsection{Literal text}
|
|
|
|
For typesetting computer code, the \texttt{verbatim} environment reproduces
|
|
every character verbatim, in a typewriter font:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
u[t_] := NIntegrate[
|
|
x^2 * Sqrt[x^2+t^-2] / (Exp[Sqrt[x^2+t^-2]] + 1), {x,0,Infinity}]
|
|
f[t_] := NIntegrate[
|
|
x^2 * Log[1+ Exp[-Sqrt[x2+t^-2]]], {x,0,Infinity}]
|
|
Plot[((11Pi^4/90) / (u[t]+f[t]+(2Pi^4/45)))^(1/3), {t,0,3}]
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
There's also a \verb/\verb/ macro for typesetting short snippets of verbatim
|
|
text within a paragraph. To use this macro, pick any character that doesn't
|
|
appear within the verbatim text to use as a delimiter. Most of the examples
|
|
in this article use \texttt{/} as a delimiter, but in \verb|{a/b}| we've used
|
|
\verb/|/ instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
\section{Endnotes and references}
|
|
|
|
This article has already cited quite a few endnotes, using the \verb/\cite/
|
|
macro. See the end of this article (and source file) for the endnotes
|
|
themselves, which are in an environment called \texttt{thebibliography}
|
|
and are created with the \verb/\bibitem/ macro. These macros require
|
|
you to give each endnote a name. The notes will be numbered in the
|
|
order in which the \verb/\bibitem/ entries appear, and AJP requires that
|
|
this order coincide with the order in which the notes are first cited in
|
|
the article. You can cite multiple endnotes in a single \verb/\cite/,
|
|
separating their names by commas. And you can cite each note as many
|
|
times as you like.
|
|
|
|
Notice that in the AJP (and Physical Review B) style, the citation numbers
|
|
appear as superscripts. Think carefully about the optimal placement of
|
|
each citation, and try not to attach citations to math symbols where the
|
|
numbers might be misinterpreted as exponents. Often there will be a
|
|
punctuation symbol after the word where you attach the citation; you
|
|
should then put the citation \textit{after} the punctuation, not
|
|
before.\cite{nevermindlogic}
|
|
|
|
If you want to refer directly to Ref.~\onlinecite{mermin} (or any other)
|
|
in a sentence, you can do so with the \verb/\onlinecite/ macro.
|
|
|
|
Most endnotes consist of bibliographic citations.\cite{noBIBTeX} Be sure
|
|
to learn and use the AJP styles for citing books,\cite{latexbook}
|
|
articles,\cite{dyson} edited volumes,\cite{examplevolume} and
|
|
URLs.\cite{latexsite} For example, article titles are in double quotes,
|
|
while book titles are in italics. Pay careful attention to all punctuation
|
|
symbols in citations. Note that AJP requires that all article citations
|
|
include titles as well as beginning and ending page numbers.
|
|
Please use standard abbreviations, as listed in the AIP Style
|
|
Manual,\cite{AIPstylemanual} for journal titles.
|
|
|

\section{Conclusion}
|
|
|
|
We hope this article will help you prepare beautifully typeset
|
|
manuscripts for the American Journal of Physics. Good typesetting requires
|
|
considerable attention to detail, but this effort will pay off by making your
|
|
manuscript easier and more enjoyable to read. Your colleagues, reviewers,
|
|
and editors will be grateful for your effort.
|
|
|
|
Of course, we encourage you to put as much care into the \textit{content}
|
|
of your manuscript as you put into its form. The AIP Style
|
|
Manual\cite{AIPstylemanual} is an indispensable reference on good physics
|
|
writing, covering everything from planning and organization to standard
|
|
spellings and abbreviations.
|
|
|
|
Most important of all, please familiarize yourself with the AJP Statement
|
|
of Editorial Policy,\cite{editorsite} which describes the types of manuscripts
|
|
that AJP publishes and the audience for which AJP authors are expected to write.
|
|
You wouldn't want to put all that care into preparing a manuscript for AJP,
|
|
only to find that AJP is the wrong journal for your manuscript.
|
|
|
|
We look forward to receiving your submission to AJP.

\section{Uninteresting stuff}
|
|
|
|
Appendices are for material that is needed for completeness but
|
|
not sufficiently interesting to include in the main body of the paper. Most
|
|
articles don't need any appendices, but feel free to use them when
|
|
appropriate. This sample article needs an appendix only to illustrate how
|
|
to create an appendix.
