History

The EPJ D arose from various predecessors: ''Il Nuovo Cimento (Section D)'', ''Journal de Physique'', and ''Zeitschrift für Physik D''. Prior to 1998, this journal was named ''Zeitschrift für Physik D: Atoms, Molecules and Clusters''. Until 2003, Ingolf Hertel was the

of EPJ D. From May 2003 on EPJ D had two editors-in-chief: Tito Arecchi and Jean-Michel Raimond. In January 2004, Arecchi stepped down and Franco A. Gianturco took over his position. In 2009, the newly appointed (third) editor-in-chief, Kurt Becker, took on the responsibility for promoting the plasma physics coverage of the journal. As of 2018, three editors-in-chief are Tommaso Calarco (Forschungszentrum Jülich, Germany), Holger Kersten (Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel, Germany) and Andrey V. Solov'yov (MBN Research Center, Frankfurt am Main, Germany).
