The journal investigates areas of study like Classical mechanics, Theoretical physics, Quantum mechanics, Optics and Mechanics. European Journal of Physics focuses on Classical mechanics but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Motion (geometry), Simple (abstract algebra) and Magnetic field. The in-depth study on Theoretical physics also explores topics in the intersecting field of Einstein.
The Quantum mechanics works, particularly on Quantum are tackled in the journal.
The journal publications are mainly concerned with subjects like Classical mechanics, Theoretical physics, Quantum mechanics, Simple (abstract algebra) and Mechanics. The most cited papers address concerns in the field of Classical mechanics by exploring it in line with topics in Magnetic field which intersect with Condensed matter physics subjects. The journal articles explore research in Theoretical physics and the adjacent study of Science instruction.
European Journal of Physics primarily tackles Classical mechanics, Mechanics, Optics, Quantum electrodynamics and Mathematical physics. The journal focuses on Classical mechanics research which is adjacent to topics in Pendulum.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in European Journal of Physics (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in European Journal of Physics (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 61.75% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 9.17% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 3.67% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 11.93% of all publications and 75.23% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2020)For students interested in pursuing a Physics degree with flexibility, several universities offer affordable options. Enrolling in an online physics degree program allows learners to balance studies with personal or professional commitments, making education more accessible.
Additionally, a physics background can open doors to jobs that support remote work. Exploring degrees for work from home jobs reveals a range of opportunities in technology, data analysis, and research that suit those seeking location independence.
Career paths related to physics are diverse. For instance, forensic science careers often require strong analytical and problem-solving skills, making a physics degree a valuable foundation. More details about this field can be found under forensic science careers.
Interestingly, physics graduates may also consider leadership roles outside traditional science sectors. Positions like athletic directors blend organizational skills with an understanding of physical sciences and require specific credentials. Learn more about this trajectory by reviewing athletic director education requirements.
