Guidelines for Authors
【仅供投稿参考】
3 Types of papers
The journal publishes Reviews, Topical Reviews, Research Articles, View & Perspective Articles, and Research Highlights on the current topics of high interest to the researchers at the frontiers of physics. The Reviews provide comprehensive overview of certain active research areas. The Topical Reviews provide a snapshot of recent progress in a particular and rapidly developing research field. The Research Articles are linked to the primary research in nearly all main branches of physics, such as quantum computation and quantum information; atomic, molecular, and optical physics; condensed matter and materials physics; particle, nuclear physics, astrophysics and cosmology. Moreover, the commissioned Special Topics will be organized to reflect the new and cutting-edge research progress and the wide coverage of a certain research topic.
The following types of papers can be submitted to the journal:
Review (>25 pages) – The Review gives a comprehensive overview of certain active research areas. There is no strict page limit for each review article, but we expect that it is at least 25 pages long.
Topical Review (15-25 pages) – The Topical Review provides a snapshot of recent progress in a particular research field. It often deals with a subject which is still developing rapidly so a comprehensive review seems not possible.
Research Article (>4 pages) – The Research Articles are linked to the primary research in nearly all main branches of physics.
View & Perspective, Research Highlight – The "View & Perspective" or “Research Highlight” presents short outlines of ("views at") research areas addressed in the reviews or research papers, including 1-4 pages (2000-6000 words) and 10-20 references but no abstract.
4 Manuscript preparation, requirements, and submission instructions
4.1 Manuscript submission
Authors are encouraged to submit their papers via the online submission system https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/fop or by e-mail to the managing editor Hongguang Dong (E-mail: donghg@hep.com.cn). The website guides authors step-wise through the creation and uploading of various files.
Note that only PDF files are required for reviewing. To assist reviewers, please add line numbers and page numbers to your manuscript. After the reviewing process, the manuscript will be finally judged by responsible editors who have the right to accept or reject a paper. Once the manuscript is finally accepted, all original source files are required.
4.2 Submission requirements
4.2.1 Cover letter
A cover letter must accompany each submission indicating the name, address, and telephone number of the authors to whom all correspondence is addressed. Please briefly describe the main contents and key highlights of the article. Authors are also encouraged to recommend some potential referees in their cover letters. Final selection of reviewers will be determined by the editors. However, the journal is not obliged to use the suggested reviewers. Final selection of reviewers will be determined by the editors.
4.2.2 Besides your article
We set up a special column “Special Focus” on the third cover page of the hard-copy of the journal to introduce a key laboratory, an institute, etc., in each issue. For this purpose, you are encouraged to incorporate a frontcover image along with a brief description and/or a recommended laboratory, an institute or a research department in the cover letter of your submission.
4.2.3 Manuscript for review/topical review articles
The Review gives an in-depth overview of certain active research areas, providing the reader with an appreciation of the importance of the work, historical context, a summary of recent developments, and a starting point in the specialist literature. The Topical Review provides a snapshot of recent progress in a particular and rapidly developing research field. It often deals with a subject which is still developing rapidly so a comprehensive review seems not possible.
Manuscripts should be divided into appropriate sections, with an extensive list of references. In addition to undergoing the same rigorous level of technical peer-review as original research papers, Review/Topical Review articles will be critiqued based on the general impact of the field being reviewed, the relevance of the field to other subjects, and acknowledgement of the contributing author as a dominant figure in the field. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that authors interested in submitting a Review/Topical Review article correspond with the Editor prior to submission.
