Thank you, Julien. That's very helpful. But iyour description makes it
seem like there's no way to make these formatting changes from within
LyX, starting from a document already formatted in the Article class. Is
that right?
If I were starting in LyX with a document in the class
[12pt,aps,prb,preprint]{revtex4}, could one make that document follow
the formatting you have described above, from within LyX?

I am not sure I understand. How do you enter your citations in your
document? Bibtex requires some extra care, but when you do a "view >
PDF", LyX will perform the necessary extra steps for you. So yes you can
do these changes within LyX and with any document class.
I wasn't very clear in that I didn't mention how LyX uses Bibtex:
At the end of your document, you would insert a BibTex database inset
(using the insert menu in Lyx). You need a .bib file, which is a
database of bibliographic data in the specific bibtex format. Then,
throughout your text you insert citations using the insert menu.
