New Journal of Physics (NJP) is an open-access, electronic-only journal publishing peer-reviewed research across the whole of physics. The editorial scope encompasses pure, applied, theoretical and experimental research, as well as interdisciplinary topics where physics forms the central theme.

The editor-in-chief is Eberhard Bodenschatz at the Max-Planck-Institut für Dynamik und Selbstorganisation, Göttingen, Germany and Cornell University, NY, USA.

The journal had an Impact factor of 3.264 for 2007 (3.754 for 2006) according to Journal Citation Reports. It is indexed in ISI (Science Citation Index-Expanded (available through the Web of Science), ISI Alerting Services (includes Research Alert), Current Contents/Physical, Chemical and Earth Sciences), INSPEC Information Services, Scopus, Chemical Abstracts, Compendex, International Nuclear Information System (INIS), MathSciNet, NASA Astrophysics Data System, and SLAC SPIRES Database.

NJP is permanently free to read at the journal web site.
