Physicists predict general directions statistical physics might take during the coming decade. Among their topics are applying Virial theorem in continuous potential of two scales, some experimental reasons for an inhomogeneous structure of ambient water on the nanometer-length scale, topological and geometrical aspects of phase transitions, magic trees in mammalian respiration or when evolution selected clever physical systems, and continuous and first-order jamming transition in crossing pedestrian traffic flows.
