April 1905 - April 2018

Proceedings A has a long history, and was published under several different titles during the 19th century. In 1905, the then Proceedings of the Royal Society of London split into two journals: Proceedings of the Royal Society A, covering mathematics and physical sciences, and Proceedings of the Royal Society B, covering life sciences; both are still published today.

This page contains content published in Proceedings A since 1905. Click here for earlier content from Proceedings of the Royal Society of London (1800-1905).
