Radiation Measurements

ISSN: 1350-4487
5 Year impact factor: 1.9
Impact factor: 2

Radiation Measurements provides a forum for the presentation of the latest developments in the broad field of ionizing radiation detection and measurement. The journal publishes original papers on both fundamental and applied research. The journal seeks to publish papers that present advances in the following areas: spontaneous and stimulated luminescence (including scintillating materials, thermoluminescence, and optically stimulated luminescence); electron spin resonance of natural and synthetic materials; the physics, design and performance of radiation measurements (including computational modelling such as electronic transport simulations); the novel basic aspects of radiation measurement in medical physics. Studies of energy-transfer phenomena, track physics and microdosimetry are also of interest to the journal. Applications relevant to the journal, particularly where they present novel detection techniques, novel analytical approaches or novel materials, include: personal dosimetry (including dosimetric quantities, active/electronic and passive monitoring techniques for photon, neutron and charged-particle exposures); environmental dosimetry (including methodological advances and predictive models related to radon); cosmic and high-energy radiation measurements (including dosimetry, space radiation effects, and single event upsets); dosimetry-based archaeological and Quaternary dating; dosimetry-based approaches to thermochronometry; accident and retrospective dosimetry (including activation detectors), and dosimetry and measurements related to medical applications. Generally excluded are topics related to dosimetry and environmental radioactivity for risk assessment, particularly using standard and well-established techniques, where the emphasis is on the results of the measurements rather than on the measurement techniques. Review articles are periodically solicited by the Editors. The journal aims to publish papers containing substantial novelty and scientific impact. The Editors reserve the rights to reject, with or without external review, papers that do not meet these criteria. Please note that rejected papers will not be considered when resubmitted in any form, or to an alternative Editor.

SoftwareX

ISSN: 2352-7110
5 Year impact factor: 3.3
Impact factor: 3.4

SoftwareX aims to acknowledge the impact of software on today's research practice, and on new scientific discoveries in almost all research domains. SoftwareX also aims to stress the importance of the software developers who are, in part, responsible for this impact. To this end, SoftwareX aims to support publication of research software in such a way that: The software is given a stamp of scientific relevance, and provided with a peer-reviewed recognition of scientific impact; The software developers are given the credits they deserve; The software is citable, allowing traditional metrics of scientific excellence to apply; The academic career paths of software developers are supported rather than hindered; The software is publicly available for inspection, validation, and re-use. Above all, SoftwareX aims to inform researchers about software applications, tools and libraries with a (proven) potential to impact the process of scientific discovery in various domains. The journal is multidisciplinary and accepts submissions from within and across subject domains such as those represented within the broad thematic areas below: Mathematical and Physical Sciences; Environmental Sciences; Medical and Biological Sciences; Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences. Originating from these broad thematic areas, the journal also welcomes submissions of software that works in cross cutting thematic areas, such as citizen science, cybersecurity, digital economy, energy, global resource stewardship, health and wellbeing, etcetera. SoftwareX specifically aims to accept submissions representing domain-independent software that may impact more than one research domain. Domain independent underpinning software tools and technologies have for too long been underrepresented in academic literature. We wish to ensure that these software items get academic recognition and welcome submissions of software tools and services that may otherwise not have a publication home. Examples include mathematical or image processing libraries or methodologies, visualization tools, data management, etcetera. Through the quality of the description and of the (potential) impact of the software deposited we aim that significant reuse will occur both within and without the original developing domain and therefore encourage consideration of this reuse factor when submitting and in the language used within the description. Submissions to SoftwareX consist of two major parts: A short descriptive paper of 3000-word limit; An open-source software distribution with support material. Submissions are accepted only if the code/software has been made freely available. To submit please follow the Original Software Publication guidelines. For any questions contact us at: [email protected] All software publications published in SoftwareX are hosted on a repository on GitHub. A copy of the 'accepted for publication' version of software/code will be copied to the journal's GitHub repository for archiving purposes. Go to the SoftwareX GitHub repository

Space Solar Power and Wireless Transmission

ISSN: 2950-1040

Space solar power science and technology is an interdisciplinary field of energy and aerospace technology. It involves key technologies such as space solar power station system, as well as long-distance and efficient wireless power transmission. There are hundreds of scientific research institutions and universities globally engaged in research in related fields; however, there is a lack of journals with a focus on space solar power science. To that end, the Journal of Space Solar Power and Wireless Transmission (SSPWT) was launched with the aim to feature the latest scientific and technological achievements in the intersection of energy and aerospace technology, and to serve as a high-level academic exchange platform for experts and scholars. SSPWT welcomes original high-quality submissions associated with aerospace science and space physics, electrical engineering, laser, machinery, control, materials, microelectronics, optoelectronics, etc. Areas of interest include but are not limited to: Space solar power system design Space electric power system Microwave power transmission Laser power transmission Construction and control of space structures Photovoltaic conversion Energy storage in space Devices and materials for high-efficiency power conversion Mutual interactions between ionosphere/atmosphere and microwave/laser power beams Environmental and bio-electromagnetic effects of space solar power system Innovation and application of space solar power Policy and safety issues related to space solar power

The Egyptian Journal of Remote Sensing & Space Sciences (EJRS) is a gold open access journal. EJRS continues with the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review. EJRS authors will pay an article publishing charge (APC), have a choice of license options, and retain copyright to their published work. The APC will be requested after peer review and acceptance. The APC payment will be required for all accepted articles submitted after the 31st of October 2021. EJRS will offer a discounted APC USD 900 (excluding taxes) to all authors for a short period. In addition, EJRS is part of Research4Life open access program, which offers authors from lower- and middle-income countries APC waivers or discounts. For more details please visit this page. EJRS is also offering a waiving opportunity for 10 quality manuscript (MS) according to predefined criteria. For more details please consult the waiving criteria. Scientists who are interested to apply their MS within this competing offer are requested to submit, with the MS, a brief description of the research specifying the novelty of the idea and/or the application approach in a paragraph of not more than 50 words. It also important to define which "waive category" the author is applying for and specify—from your opinion—the reason for which the MS deserve the waive opportunity. Please note: Authors who have submitted their paper on or before the 31st of October 2021, will have their accepted article published in EJRS at no charge. Authors submitting their paper after this date will be requested to pay the APC. For more details visit our FAQs page. For queries related to the journal, please contact [email protected]
