Use when targeting New Journal of Physics (NJP) or deciding whether a broad-physics manuscript fits this open-access IOP/DPG venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, method-and-evidence bar, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

# New Journal of Physics (new-journal-of-physics) ## Journal positioning NJP is published jointly by IOP Publishing and the Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft (DPG), is fully open access, and positions itself as a broad-scope, high-quality physics journal spanning the discipline. Its defining character is breadth with significance: NJP publishes substantial, technically sound papers across quantum information, atomic/molecular/optical (AMO) physics, condensed matter, optics and photonics, statistical and biological physics, and beyond, judged on scientific quality and importance to its field rather than on fitting a narrow topical mandate. NJP emphasizes article-level metrics and accessibility over a single journal impact figure, and it is a natural home for complete, well-motivated studies that are too broad or too specialized for a sub-field-only journal but do not need the selectivity of a flagship. Readership is the general physics community across theory and experiment. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the NJP/IOP si

What does the new-journal-of-physics skill do?
Use when targeting New Journal of Physics (NJP) or deciding whether a broad-physics manuscript fits this open-access IOP/DPG venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, method-and-evidence bar, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill new-journal-of-physics --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 984 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
