Introducing AIP Fusion

Powering open science with unlimited open access publishing, reading, and services

Breaking barriers to open research is at the core of our mission. That’s why we created AIP Fusion:
a simple, all-inclusive model that delivers unlimited reading and publishing access across all AIP
Publishing and partner journals. It’s a powerful step in making physics research more open, fair,
and impactful for the researchers and global community we serve.

With AIP Fusion, researchers get:

  • Unlimited reading access to our portfolio of 40+ AIP Publishing and partner journals, from 1999 to present
  • Unlimited open access publishing in any AIPP or partner journal—including gold OA titles—without APCs or article caps
  • A simplified publishing experience—no cost, no barriers, no extra steps, full funder compliance

How It Works

If your institution signs an AIP Fusion agreement with us, you have seamless access to our entire
portfolio and all of your open access publishing costs are covered in our 40+ journals, including
12 Gold OA titles. You can submit to any of our journals with no APC to pay—it’s all been arranged
by your library.

At submission, our system automatically recognizes eligible authors and applies publishing benefits
and CC BY 4.0 licensing. No guesswork. No unexpected costs. No admin.

Why Publish Open Access With Us

Publishing open access increases your work’s visibility, impact, and reach.

On average, open access articles published with us receive:

  • 4x views
  • 2x citations
  • 2x shares

And by removing barriers to information, open access also improves collaboration, helps meet funder
requirements, and builds public trust in science.
