Content
The content format for SciPost Chemistry Core is flexible: articles can be short letter-style communications or in-depth reports of recent research. There is no minimum or maximum length: the article should however constitute a complete, self-contained unit. The target audience can be researchers in many different subject areas, or specialists in one.Accepted papers are published continuously, and are further collected into (monthly) issues grouped into (yearly) volumes.
Acceptance criteria
To be accepted for publication in SciPost Chemistry Core, a submission must meet *all* of the following expectations and general acceptance criteria:
Expectations (all required) - the paper must:
- Address an important (set of) problem(s) in the field using appropriate methods with an above-the-norm degree of originality
- Detail one or more new research results significantly advancing current knowledge and understanding of the field.
General acceptance criteria (all required) - the paper must:
- Be written in a clear and intelligible way, free of unnecessary jargon, ambiguities and misrepresentations
- Provide sufficient details (inside the bulk sections or in appendices) so that arguments and derivations can be reproduced by qualified experts
