How do I register? Can the experts guide me, please?

Excuse me, how did the senior register for the journal? When I tried to register, it said my email was not available. After switching to a QQ email, I was able to receive the verification code, but it still said the code was not valid, and I still can't register.

Even if there are experimental results now, it cannot be guaranteed that PRL is stable.

Well, but in recent years, PRL has become increasingly difficult! It's already at hellish level of difficulty.

The editor works very quickly, with submissions in December returned for revisions in January, revised submissions accepted in February, and publication in April, with the paper selected for editorial recommendation.

The editors of PRL are very corrupt. To reject a manuscript that they do not like personally, editors deliberately fail to comply with PRL Review Procedures. The editors and DAE make a joint peer-review scam, surprisingly supported by Editor-in-Chief

PRL is the most prestigious journal in physics, with a significant impact. The review process is relatively fast, with the first round of comments received in just 2 months, and the paper accepted after 2 minor revisions, making the entire review process 4 months. PRL prefers articles with experimental data and innovative ideas

The second PRL took 8 months from submission to acceptance, with the first review taking 3 months, revisions taking 2 months, and the second review taking another 3 months. It must be said that the comments and suggestions made by the reviewers were truly sharp and constructive, and every word used by the reviewers was precise. The revisions included a lot of discussions in the appendix, resulting in a well-formatted 23-page pdf file in Latex

During the review period, there is no need to be concerned about the corresponding author's information. PRL does not automatically indicate the corresponding author in the manuscript. After acceptance, you can request to have the corresponding author's information included in the manuscript during proofreading

Dear experts, I would like to consult about something. After submitting my application, I realized that I am unable to select the corresponding author in the submission system. My mentor is not the corresponding author, but it has already been sent for review. How can I change the corresponding author?

I would like to ask, for the PRL submission system, if a reviewer accepts the review, will the system display it?

Submit in April, receive revision comments from two reviewers in July, return in August, and accept in early October.

It is not fortunate to encounter a colleague as a reviewer. A reviewer deliberately delays and consumes your time by only providing their review comments on the last night of the two-month deadline.

First, I would like to clarify that I have not submitted any contributions to this journal. However, peer review requires relevant operations in order to participate, so I understand. Regarding the content: You are absolutely right!! Admirable!

PRL Editors, by using their own personal interests and tastes instead of specific standards, to review manuscripts (which is actually a form of unfair manipulation of academic research), will inevitably affect the guidance of research directions in physics and the development of research areas. A wrong research direction can also create many prestigious awards, but it may excessively consume taxpayers' money. This practice is not in line with the spirit of PRL Editorial Policies.

"PRL Editorial Policies and Specific Standards are actually just decorative ornaments."

If the editors do not like your manuscript, they will not review it according to specific standards, and will directly reject it.

On the surface, Physical Review Letters has established a relatively comprehensive review process (PRL Evaluation/Assessment/Review Procedures), where Editors and Referees are required to review manuscripts according to specific standards. However, in reality, it is not the case.

PRL is very innovative but also very fraudulent. The most typical example is the so-called Positive Mass Theorem in general relativity, which is an epic myth in modern physics and mathematical physics. The big shots used complex mathematics that baffled several generations. My math is not good, but I heard about differential geometry, Riemannian geometry, and Spinors, and it scared me. However, after someone pointed it out, I understood that it was completely a story of the Emperor's New Clothes. Mainstream scientists wrote fraud into textbooks, and fraud became truth.

Two reviewers received the manuscript 40 days after submission. One suggested major revisions, while the other suggested minor revisions, but both stated that the manuscript met the standards of PRL (Physical Review Letters). After the revisions were made, the manuscript was returned for a second round of review 40 days later. One reviewer proposed some further modifications. After further revisions were made, the manuscript was sent back to the reviewers and accepted 8 days later. I am involved in theoretical calculations, and this journal has a very high requirement for innovation.

What I want to ask is, is there also a strict length requirement for the main text of the revision? The length is limited to 3750.

No, as long as you reply directly to the question, it is fine.

Is there a length requirement for the response?
