What it does

New Journal Of Physics is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. 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.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Journal-specific Claude Code/Codex skill packs covering mainstream journals — AER, QJE, Nature, Cell, 管理世界, 经济研究 & 200+ more — your fast track to getting published. | 覆盖主流期刊的… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Targeting New Journal of Physics (NJP)
  • Deciding whether a broad-physics manuscript fits this open-access IOP/DPG venue

Example prompts

  • “/new-journal-of-physics”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

New Journal Of Physics loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 72 tokens; SKILL.md has 877 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~72
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

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 site.

When to trigger

  • The author names NJP as the target venue for a complete, significant physics paper of broad interest.
  • A manuscript in quantum information, AMO, condensed matter, or optics is technically solid and the author is choosing between NJP, Physical Review X, PRX Quantum, and a sub-field Physical Review journal.
  • A paper has genuine importance to its field but a broad enough scope that a topic-restricted journal is a poor fit.
  • The author needs NJP's open-access terms, article-level-metrics ethos, and breadth-oriented framing, plus desk-reject criteria, before submission.

Scope & topic fit

  • Quantum information and computation: quantum algorithms, error correction, entanglement theory, quantum simulation, quantum metrology, and open quantum systems.
  • Atomic, molecular, and optical physics: cold atoms and molecules, ion traps, cavity and circuit QED, precision measurement, and ultrafast/strong-field physics.
  • Condensed matter and materials: correlated electrons, topological phases, spintronics, low-dimensional systems, and quantum transport, theory or experiment.
  • Optics and photonics: nanophotonics, quantum optics, metamaterials, structured light, and integrated photonic devices.
  • Statistical, nonlinear, and complex-systems physics; biological and soft-matter physics where the physics question is central.
  • Cross-disciplinary physics that advances a clear physical principle and is of interest beyond a single specialist community.

Method & evidence bar

  • The study must be complete and technically sound: claims fully supported by the presented theory, simulation, or measurement, with assumptions stated.
  • Significance to the field, not just correctness, is part of the bar — the paper should advance understanding or capability in a way a broad physics readership would value.
  • Experimental work must report uncertainties, calibration, and error budgets; statistical claims must be justified.
  • Numerical and computational results must specify methods, convergence, and parameters sufficiently for reproduction.
  • Theoretical results should be checked against limiting cases or independent methods, and connected to existing literature.
  • Data and code underlying the results should be made available per the journal's data-availability policy; deposition in a public repository is expected where applicable.
Show full SKILL.md (403 more words)Show less

Structure & house style

  • NJP uses IOP's article format and LaTeX/Word templates; there is no rigid length cap, but papers should be as long as needed and no longer.
  • Standard structure (Introduction, Methods/Model, Results, Discussion, Conclusion) is typical, with technical detail in appendices or supplementary material.
  • The introduction must motivate the work for a broad physics audience and state the advance clearly, not only for sub-field specialists.
  • Figures should be self-contained and quantitatively clear; supplementary material carries extended derivations and additional data.
  • References follow IOP conventions; cite current literature across the relevant sub-fields.
  • Abstracts are unstructured and should convey the problem, the result, and its significance concisely.

Official-submission checklist

  • Before giving submission-ready advice, read ../../resources/source-basis.md and ../../resources/official-source-map.md; start from the official source anchors for this journal family, then cite the current journal-specific page you checked.
  • Search the live site for "New Journal of Physics author guidelines" / "NJP submission" and follow the current IOP version.
  • Re-check the IOP template requirements and any current formatting, figure, and supplementary-material conventions.
  • Re-check the open-access / article-processing-charge terms and any institutional or DPG-related arrangements.
  • Re-check data-availability, code-availability, competing-interests, and AI-use disclosure requirements; confirm preprint (arXiv) policy.
  • If the live official instructions conflict with this skill, the official instructions win.

Pre-submission self-check

  • One sentence — the physical advance of this paper and why it matters to a broad physics readership.
  • Claims are fully supported by the theory, simulation, or measurement presented; assumptions are explicit.
  • The work is significant to its field, not merely a correct incremental result with narrow appeal.
  • Uncertainties, error budgets, or numerical convergence are reported as appropriate.
  • Data and code are available per the data-availability policy; accession details are ready.
  • The paper is positioned against recent NJP / PRX / sub-field PR literature on this question.

Common desk-reject triggers

  • A technically sound but incremental result of interest only to a narrow specialist sub-community without broader physics significance.
  • A study with unsupported claims, missing uncertainties, or insufficient methodological detail to reproduce.
  • A paper framed solely for sub-field insiders with no broad-physics motivation in the introduction.
  • A manuscript that duplicates known results or trivially extends prior work.
  • A non-physics or engineering-only contribution where no clear physical principle is advanced.

Re-routing decision

  • Broad-physics result of exceptional importance needing flagship selectivity and visibility: physical-review-x.
  • Quantum information / computation work aimed at the dedicated quantum community: prx-quantum.
  • Condensed-matter result best matched to the specialist APS section: physical-review-b.
  • High-impact, broad-audience framing for a Nature-family venue: nature-physics.
