Astroparticle Physics publishes experimental and theoretical research papers in the interacting fields of Cosmic Ray Physics, Astronomy and Astrophysics, Cosmology and Particle Physics focusing on new developments in the following areas: • Cosmic-ray physics and astrophysics • Particle cosmology, cosmic abundances, Big Bang Nucleosynthesis • Related astrophysics: supernova, AGN• Dark matter (direct and indirect searches) • Gravitational waves • Gamma-ray astronomy • Neutrino astronomy, properties, and double-beta decay • Instrumentation and detector developments, and method development (e.g. calibration, analysis) related to the above-mentioned fields.Novelty and relevance Astroparticle Physics aims to only publish papers with significance to an international audience, 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. This could include papers that are very similar to previous publications, or that are out of scope, such as concentrated mostly on very theoretical developments with few direct immediate observational consequences, mathematical physics, modified gravity, etc, or lacking a direct connection to either astro- or particle physics.Astroparticl... Physics may consider the publication of scientific mission proposal papers. The Editors will jointly decide on the suitability of such papers for the journal. Authors are advised to contact one of the Editors directly to discuss proposals https://www.journals... The journal inbox is astropartphys@elsevi...

5 Year impact factor: 7.7
Impact factor: 10.2

The Journal of High Energy Astrophysics (JHEAP) is the first astrophysical journal that focuses on the study of the most energetic phenomena.Driven by observations conducted with unprecedented experimental facilities and satellites, the last few years have brought a plethora of historic results at the high-energy end of the electromagnetic spectrum, as well as breakthrough, first observations with neutrinos and gravitational waves.This scenario appeal to new theoretical efforts, altogether leading to a burst of new ideas, problems, and research directions.High-ener... astrophysics, a research field that connects astronomy, cosmology, and particle physics, will continue to expand in the next decades, boosted by forthcoming improvements in experimental detection precision.JHEAP seeks scientifically sound papers, and particularly those crossing strict specialization fields, attracting wide interest.The journal welcomes manuscripts on theoretical models, simulations, and observations of energetic astrophysical objects both in our Galaxy and beyond. Among those, black holes at all scales, neutron stars, pulsars and their nebula, magnetars, fast radio bursts, binaries, novae and supernovae, their remnants, active galaxies are just a few examples.The journal will consider research across the whole electromagnetic spectrum, as well as research using various messengers, such as gravitational waves or neutrinos.Effects of high-energy phenomena on cosmology and star-formation, results from dedicated surveys expanding the knowledge of extreme environments, and astrophysical implications of dark matter are also welcomed topics.The journal adopts the commonly used single blind peer review system, during which the reviewer names are kept anonymous while the author or collaboration name is disclosed to the reviewers. In addition, the journal introduces the possibility for papers to be refereed in a double-blind process, in order to ensure and promote quality. A dedicated reviewer pool, an active Editorial Board, a fast and traceable online submission procedure.Starting from October 2023, the journal implements a Letters column, which disseminates timely and impactful results in the field. There is no length limit to the Letters. A speed-up refereeing process (typically in 2 weeks) is reinforced. The authors have an option to choose Letters submission. The scientific editors will check its suitability to the Letters column and decide whether it is sent out for review as a Letter or a regular article.JHEAP has no page charges and has a delayed open access model, meaning that your article will automatically and without extra charge become open access after 12 months.All colour figures are free for the online version and a selection of printed colour figures costs may be waived at the Editor's discretion. JHEAP is indexed in all major systems such as Scopus, Web of Science and SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS).JHEAP only publishes professional, verifiable, and reproducible research and does not welcome articles just expressing personal opinions.

Physics of the Dark Universe

ISSN: 2212-6864
5 Year impact factor: 4.7
Impact factor: 5

Physics of the Dark Universe is a hybrid journal which aims to provide a flexible platform for the publication of peer reviewed articles in various formats within the fields of Dark Matter, Dark Energy, Early Universe, Gravitational waves and Neutrinos, covering all theoretical, experimental and phenomenological aspects. The Journal welcomes submissions for articles in the following sections: Dark Matter: Models for the cosmological dark matter, including, but not limited to, particle-like, wave-like, black holes; Experimental and observational probes Dark Energy: Models and theoretical scenarios related to the late-time cosmic acceleration; Observ... and experimental results; Forecast and design of new experiments Early Universe: Models and observational tests of the pre-recombination Universe, including but not limited to inflation Early universe probes of fundamental physics Dark Messengers: Multiwav... messenger astrophysics, including but not limited to: Gravitational waves; Cosmic rays; Dark-sector particles and fields; Black hole-related observations (e.g. black hole shadows) Software Description and Manuals can also be published, if the software is proved to have scientific interest in the understanding of Dark Matter and Dark Energy. The paper can be enriched with (part of) the code itself, or the software and code can be separately published in the Open Access journal SoftwareX (https://www.journal... which hosts software in a curated GitHub Repository. The journal gives authors a platform to showcase their best research in a flexible journal that supports a variety of peer-reviewed article types: short communications, full length articles, letters, review articles, reports, selected articles from conferences (conference proceedings), workshops, invited perspectives, editor's choice, white papers of new experiments and special issues. For more information about Special issues publication please contact our Content Acquisition Specialist and Publisher. Note: Please note that for submissions on modified theories of gravity and black hole thermodynamics, we will only consider for peer review those deemed of exceptional impact, with novel, relevant, and impactful results. These restrictions apply in particular to f()-type models of gravity, dynamical systems analyses of modified gravity models, and cosmological tests of modified gravity models based only data sensitive to the background expansion (as opposed to perturbations).
