Some five years ago, the American Institute of Physics began the translation of the Soviet Journal of Experimental and Theoretical Physics under the title Soviet Physics—JETP. In the five years since then the circulation of this translation journal has increased to more than 1000, making it about the most successful subscription translation journal to date.
