I've been reading on this forum that Condensed Matter is the largest field of Physics. I can't find any stats of this anywhere. I've searched AIP.org numerous times and uncover nothing. It shows what skills and general jobs of various graduates, but nothing about specific fields. Can someone post a link to these claims? Thanks.
