The cover of the very first issue of Physics Review

Welcome to the very last issue of Physics Review. The very first issue was conceived in 1990 in the Physics Department at the University of York, and the first issue arrived in schools in September of 1991. The advisory panel, listed inside the front cover, included Stephen Hawking, among other well-known names in physics.

The aims of the magazine were to support students in their studies of physics post-16, and to provide ‘a good read, telling a story that describes some interesting physics’. We hope that we have managed to stay close to these aims, and that you have enjoyed reading previous articles and will enjoy the stories in this final issue, too. Certainly we, the members of the editorial board, have enjoyed reading the articles our authors have written, and we are grateful to them, to our regular feature writers and to all those involved in producing such a high-quality magazine.
