Questions on physics articles in journals

[Mechdude]

im currently trying to acquaint myself with the current state of knowledge in physics, problem is i can't understand the physics published in journals, now i wanted to know , is it against the rules to ask stuff about the published materials? where do the questions go to, here or homework help?

Asking questions about published materials is definitely OK. I would ask them in whatever forum is relevant to the topic, ie. if you're reading Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter then this is the right forum.
