Author Guidelines

Authors are invited to make a submission to this journal. All submissions will be assessed by an editor to determine whether they meet the aims and scope of this journal. Those considered to be a good fit will be sent for peer review before determining whether they will be accepted or rejected.

Before making a submission, authors are responsible for obtaining permission to publish any material included with the submission, such as photos, documents and datasets. All authors identified on the submission must consent to be identified as an author. Where appropriate, research should be approved by an appropriate ethics committee in accordance with the legal requirements of the study's country.

An editor may desk reject a submission if it does not meet minimum standards of quality. Before submitting, please ensure that the study design and research argument are structured and articulated properly. The title should be concise and the abstract should be able to stand on its own. This will increase the likelihood of reviewers agreeing to review the paper. When you're satisfied that your submission meets this standard, please follow the checklist below to prepare your submission.

Submission: A manuscript, written in English, should be prepared with the help of the LaTeX publishing system using special cmpj package for design and style formats. Read template.pdf for the manuscript preparation guidelines and use template.tex as a template for typesetting of your article.

cmpj style files and templates are already included in the modern LaTeX installations (mikTeX, TeXlive, etc.). Use your package manager to add it if it is not installed yet. For old installations you can download cmpj package from CTAN: cmpj.zip or cmpj.tds.zip.

Page charge: There is no page charge.

All submissions must meet the following requirements.

  • This submission meets the requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines.
  • This submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration.
  • The submission files are in the LaTeX and PDF document file formats. TeX-file and all files required for LaTeX compilation must be submitted as ONE ARCHIVE (e.g. zip file)! If you do not know how to create archive from multiple files, consult the "3 Ways To Create a Zip File on a Mac or PC: A How-To Guide" page.
  • All references have been checked for accuracy and completeness. Where available, DOI's for the references must be provided.
  • All tables and figures have been numbered and labeled.
  • The text is typesetted using cmpj LaTeX style and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
  • Permission has been obtained to publish all photos, datasets and other material provided with this submission.
  • The corresponding keywords (Physics Subject Headings) are provided.
  • The published papers will be subject of gradual submission to arXiv.org server which will be done by our personnel. If that already have been done by you earlier, please inform us on the way we can access these on arXiv server (Eprint-ID and password, NOT personal user name and password) to enable us to submit there the final version of your paper in a format of our journal. 
  • The ORCID number indications (https://orcid.org/) are provided for primary and/or corresponding authors. The  ORCID is strongly advisable for the other authors as well.
