850 free-to-read low-temperature physics papers from LT25 are now online

IOP Publishing is delighted to announce open-access publication of the proceedings of the 25th International Conference on Low Temperature Physics (LT25), which took place between 6–13 August 2008 at the RAI Conference Centre in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

Professor Peter Kes, Chairman of the LT25 Organizing Committee, commented:

'The Guest Editors are grateful for the very professional and pleasant support of IOP Publishing in putting together the LT25 proceedings. Thanks to the excellent collaboration between IOP Publishing and LT25 it has been possible to publish the proceedings in less than eight months after the conference.'

• Part I of the proceedings: 23 papers from plenary and invited speakers, are published in volume 21, issue 16 of Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter and will be open access for one year from 31 March 2009.
• Part II of the proceedings: over 820 contributed papers, will be permanently open access and free to read as volume 150 of Journal of Physics: Conference Series.

IOP Publishing would like to thank the Guest Editors, Peter Kes and Reijer Jochemsen who coordinated the task of bringing together this substantial collection of papers. We would also like to express our gratitude to the authors who contributed their work to the proceedings and to the referees who provided their time and expertise to review the papers. We hope that through open-access publication this body of work, containing many thousands of hyperlinked literature references, will be of long-lasting value to the low-temperature physics community.
