In recent years there has been considerable growth in research in so-called 'interface' areas where nuclear physics, particle physics and astrophysics meet; sharing common goals and language, as well as instrumentation techniques. Examples include:

• Probing the standard model by measuring elements of the CKM matrix
• The use of colliders and detectors with access to the highest energies to search for the underlying structure of matter and energy
• Fundamental interactions at the nuclear and particle level required to understand processes from solar burning to supernovae
• Neutrino physics; including oscillations, mass and interactions probing the standard solar model
• Hadronic physics dealing with the interactions, binding and structure of the strongly interacting particles under various conditions
• The increased use of 4 detectors in low-energy nuclear physics to select specific processes of interest.

These are only a few examples of what has become a major meeting place for much of the exciting physics of the early 21st Century. In today's science, the spectrum of particles, the nucleus as well as the large-scale components of the universe, are our laboratories for testing and understanding nature.
These exciting areas of cross-over require much further research and exploration. The Editorial Board and staff of Journal of Physics G: Nuclear and Particle Physics wish to strengthen their support for physicists working in such areas of intersection. To make our coverage of these interconnections more explicit, we have redrafted our scope statement as follows:
Theoretical and experimental topics in the physics of elementary particles and fields, intermediate-energy physics and nuclear physics. The particle astrophysics section includes all aspects of experimental and theoretical research into cosmic rays, nuclear and particle astrophysics, gamma ray astronomy, neutrino astrophysics and dark matter. We also welcome articles from all areas of interface between these fields.
We would like to invite all physicists working on these topics to publish their work in the pages of J.Phys.G. Naturally we shall continue to welcome outstanding research in our core nuclear and particle physics areas.
Since its launch in 1975, J.Phys.G has had a broad scope covering all aspects of the physics of elementary particles, nuclear physics, and nuclear and particle astrophysics. We have always felt this provides the journal's authors and readers with a unique overview of these increasingly interconnected subjects.
When you publish in J.Phys.G you'll benefit from fast and impartial peer review, with an average receipt-to-first decision time for papers of 58 days. We strive to provide outstanding author service with online article submission, tracking of manuscripts and electronic refereeing. Publishing with us provides your paper with wide international visibility in print and online at www.iop.org/journals/jphysg. As well as being accessible to our subscribers, each new paper is freely available to all for 30 days on our Website
