Chaos, Solitons & Fractals

  • ISSN: 0960-0779
  • 5 Year impact factor: 5.4
  • Impact factor: 5.3
An interdisciplinary journal of nonlinear scienceChaos, Solitons & Fractals has an open access companion journal Chaos, Solitons & Fractals: X which has the same aims and scope, editorial board and peer-review process. .Chaos, Solitons & Fractals aims to be the leading journal in the interdisciplinary field of Nonlinear Science.It encourages the submission of high-quality articles (under the form of short communications, regular papers, and review papers) containing results which have a significant impact on the following subjects:nonlinear dynamics and non-equilibrium processes in physics and applied mathematics;complex matter and networks;biophysics, systems biology and computational biology;fluctuations and random processes;artificial intelligence, machine learning and big data analytics;self-organization and emergent phenomena;applications to social science, engineering and econophysics.The journal can only accept papers whose primary subject area lies within the above Aims & Scope.In particular, please take notice of the following, additional, criteria:In order to be acceptable, manuscripts of more mathematical nature should have a clear and explicit connection to physical insight or new qualitative features. The word "Solitons" should be understood as a label especially extended to all nonlinear integrable systems in complex natural phenomena. The paper should not bear on some explicit formulae, some standard solutions, constructions, or asymptotic methods.The journal is interested in articles providing strong insights in the mathematical theory of fractals that are profound for an important particular application, especially in complex systems. Numerical computations should only assist the developed results.The submitted Manuscripts should contain presentations which are a) of interdisciplinary interest, b) easily accessible also to a non-specialized-audience, and c) written in an excellent English style.Notice that if the above criteria are not fulfilled, submissions may be desk-rejected by the Journal's Editors without being sent to reviewers.

Nuclear Medicine and Biology

  • ISSN: 0969-8051
  • 5 Year impact factor: 2.8
  • Impact factor: 3.6
Official Journal of the Society of Radiopharmaceutical SciencesNuclear Medicine and Biology publishes original research addressing all aspects of radiopharmaceutical science for imaging as well as therapeutic applications. More specifically the synthesis (automated and manual), in vitro and ex vivo studies, in vivo biodistribution by dissection or imaging, radiopharmacology, radiopharmacy of new radiopharmaceuticals. Translational studies of novel targeted radiopharmaceuticals, e.g. first in human use, are warmly welcomed. In addition, in vivo imaging studies using radioactive tracers for physiological and pathophysiological research or drug discovery support are welcome. In all cases, the importance of the target to an unmet clinical need should be the first consideration.These multidisciplinary studies should validate the mechanism of localization whether the tracer is based on binding to a receptor, enzyme, antigen, or another well-defined target. The studies should be aimed at evaluating how the chemical and radiopharmaceutical properties affect pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, or therapeutic efficacy. Ideally, the study would address the sensitivity of the tracer to changes in disease or treatment, although studies validating mechanism alone are acceptable as well. In the case of therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals, the specificity of labeled compound localization and therapeutic effect should be addressed.If the synthesis of a new radiopharmaceutical is submitted without in vitro or in vivo data, then the uniqueness of the chemistry must be emphasized and should provide a substantial improvement over existing methodologies.Articles related to radiopharmacy, addressing the issues of preparation, automation, quality control, dispensing, and regulations applicable to qualification and administration of radiopharmaceuticals to humans, are also welcome if the article provides a significant impact on the field.

Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena

  • ISSN: 0167-2789
  • 5 Year impact factor: 3.1
  • Impact factor: 2.7
Physica D (Nonlinear Phenomena) publishes research and review articles reporting on theoretical and experimental work, techniques, and ideas that advance the understanding of nonlinear phenomena. The scope of the journal encompasses mathematical methods for nonlinear systems including: wave motion, pattern formation and collective phenomena in physical, chemical and biological systems; hydrodynamics and turbulence; integrable and Hamiltonian systems; and data-driven dynamical systems. The journal encourages submissions in established and emerging application domains, for example applications of nonlinear science to artificial intelligence, robotics, control theory, complex networks, and social and economic dynamics.

Physics Reports

  • ISSN: 0370-1573
  • 5 Year impact factor: 25.7
  • Impact factor: 23.9
A Review Section of Physics LettersThe journal Physics Reports publishes timely reviews which are more extensive than just literature surveys but normally less than a full monograph. Each report deals with one specific subject and is generally published in a separate volume. These reviews are specialist in nature but contain enough introductory material to make the main points intelligible to a non-specialist. The reader will not only be able to distinguish important developments and trends in physics but will also find a sufficient number of references to the original literature.The topics covered by the journal include but are not limited to:Astrophysics and Cosmology,Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics,Biological Physics,Condensed Matter Physics,High Energy Physics,Nanoscience,Non-Linear Dynamics and Complex Systems,Nuclear Physics and Hadronic Physics,Plasma Physics,Statistical Physics.Submission of articles to Physics Reports is by invitation only; unsolicited submissions cannot be accepted. Should you feel that you have a topic suitable for publication in one of the sections in this journal, please contact our Editorial Office, , with a proposal of no more than 1000 words. You must specify which Editor should review your proposal (see Editorial Board).
