Advances in Physics Corrigendum

Abstract

In January 2008, Advances in Physics published a review article by Professor Heike Emmerich of the Centre for Computational Engineering Science and Institute of Minerals Engineering, Aachen, entitled, ‘Advances of and by phase-field modelling in condensed-matter physics’, Advances in Physics, Vol. 57, No. 1, 2008, pp. 1–87. It has recently come to the attention of the author, the Editor of Advances in Physics and Taylor & Francis (Publishers) that a section of the review, contains text that previously appeared in the Ulrike Hecht et al.’s paper ‘Multiphase solidification in multi-component alloys’, Mat. Sci. Eng. Rep. Vol. 46, 2004, 1–49, and that this text has been uncited. The omission of the citation was the result of authorial oversight in the drafting process. Professor Emmerich is pleased now to be able to rectify the omission, and to apologise to the Authors, Editors and Publishers of the original article. Professor Emmerich, the Editor of Advances in Physics, and Taylor & Francis (Publishers) propose to re-establish the comprehensive nature of the references and overview of the literature presented in the review, by publishing Section 4.3 as was originally intended, by the use of quotation marks to cite the text sourced from U. Hecht, L. Gránásy, T. Pusztai, B. Böttger, M. Apel, V. Witusiewicz, L. Ratke, J. De Wilde, L. Froyen, D. Camel, B. Drevet, G. Faivre, S.G. Fries, B. Legendre and S. Rex (2004), Multiphase solidification in multicomponent alloys, ‘Multiphase solidification in multicomponent alloys’, Mat. Sci. Eng. Rep. 46, 1–49.
