摘要：
Physical Review Letters is owned by the physics community. This has
profound implications. Most importantly, this means that its mission,
scope and standards are ultimately defined by our own needs and
desires, rather than by commercial considerations. My talk will give
a broad presentation of that vision, and outline some of the inner
workings of the journal. I will leave ample time for questions and
discussion, so I can learn how we can better serve you and the physics
community in general.

Pierre Meystre obtained his Physics Diploma and PhD from the Swiss
Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne in 1971 and 1974,
respectively,
and the Habilitation in Theoretical Physics from the University of
Munich in 1983. He joined the Max-Planck Institute for Quantum Optics
in 1977,
following a postdoctoral position with M. O. Scully at The University
of Arizona. In 1986, he returned to The University of Arizona where he
is
currently a Regents Professor of Optical Sciences and Physics, holds
the Chair of Quantum Optics and is Director of the B2 Institute. Since
2013
he is also the Lead Editor of Physical Review Letters. Dr. Meystre’s
research includes theoretical quantum optics, atomic physics,
ultracold science,
and quantum optomechanics. He has published over 300 refereed papers
and is the author of the text “Elements of Quantum Optics”, together
with Murray Sargent III, and of the monograph “Atom Optics.” He is a
Fellow of the Optical Society of America, of the American Physical
Society,
and of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He is
a recipient of the Humboldt Foundation Research Prize for Senior US
Scientists, of the R. W. Wood Prize of the Optical Society of America,
and was a Simons Foundation Lecturer at the State University of New
York,
Stony Brook. Dr. Meystre serves on numerous national and international
committees. He was a member of the Board on Physics and Astronomy of
the National Research Council and chaired its Standing Committee on
Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics. He also chaired the Division of
Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics of the American Physical
Society, where he currently serves as General Councilor and as a
member of the Executive Board.
