The following outline is provided as an overview of, and topical guide to, applied physics:
Applied physics – physics intended for a particular technological or practical use. It is usually considered as a bridge or a connection between "pure" physics and engineering.
Applied Physics – is the proper name of a journal founded and edited by Helmut K.V. Lotsch in 1972 and published by Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg New York from 1973 onHeinz Götze: Der Springer-Verlag - Stationen seiner Geschichte, Teil 2: 1945 - 1992, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 1994, S. 332 and 331 mit Foto
Topics in Applied Physics – is the proper name of a series of quasi-monographs founded by Helmut K.V. Lotsch and published by Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg New YorkHeinz Götze: Der Springer-Verlag - Stationen seiner Geschichte, Teil 2: 1945 - 1992, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 1994, S. 334
