he aim of the Journal of High Energy Physics (JHEP) is to ensure fast and efficient online publication tools to the scientific community, while keeping that community in charge of every aspect of the peer-review and publication process in order to ensure the highest quality standards in the journal.Consequently, the Advisory and Editorial Boards, composed of distinguished, active scientists in the field, jointly establish with the Scientific Director the journal's scientific policy and ensure the scientific quality of accepted articles.JHEP presently encompasses the following areas of theoretical and experimental physics:Collider PhysicsUnderground and Large Array PhysicsQuantum Field TheoryGauge Field TheoriesSymmetriesString and Brane TheoryGeneral Relativity and GravitationSupersymmetryMathematical Methods of PhysicsMostly Solvable ModelsAstroparticlesStatistical Field TheoriesMostly Weak InteractionsMostly Strong InteractionsQuantum Field Theory (phenomenology)Strings and BranesPhenomenological Aspects of SupersymmetryMostly Strong Interactions (phenomenology).
