Celebrating 10 years of publishing excellence

NJP 10th Anniversary Logo
NJP 10th Anniversary Highlights
NJP 10th Anniversary Authors

In 2008 New Journal of Physics (NJP) will celebrate its 10th year of publishing free-to-read, cutting-edge physics research. To mark this special anniversary the NJP Editorial Board and publishing staff have compiled the below shortlist of some of their article highlights from across physics that have been published in the journal since 1998.

As a showcase for this selection we have put together an exclusive 10th Anniversary Highlights compilation featuring specially written, non-specialist summaries of each article by the original authors themselves.

Collectively these highlights provide a real flavour of the diversity, breadth and quality of NJP's content so far. You can also learn a little a bit more about some of the featured authors and their work through our special 60 seconds with...NJP 10th Anniversary Authors Edition series of short interviews.

On behalf of NJP I thank all of the authors involved for their contributions and hope that you as readers enjoy browsing through these highlights. All articles are of course permanently free to read.
