Journal Guide

To introduce to a broader audience the most sophisticated production in its fields of interest. Following the intelectual debate, in Brazil and abroad, it contributes to the circulation of ideas and to make the academic environment in the country more stimulating.

Noûs, a premier philosophy journal, publishes articles that address the whole range of topics at the center of philosophical debate, as well as long critical studies of important books. Subscribers to Noûs also receive two prestigious annual publications at no additional cost: Philosophical Issues and Philosophical Perspectives.

The Nuclear Data Sheets are current and are published monthly. They are devoted to compilation and evaluations of experimental and theoretical results in Nuclear Physics. The journal is mostly produced from Evaluated Nuclear Structure Data File (ENSDF), a computer file maintained by the US National Nuclear Data Center http://www.nndc.bnl.govNuclear Structure Data: Evaluated nuclear structure data for A>20. (Data for A<21 are also contained in ENSDF but published elsewhere.) The evaluations include the best experimental results for various radioactive decays and nuclear reaction studies. The adopted nuclear properties include the following:• Level schemes and excitation energies• Half-life, decay modes• Spin-parity values and their bases• Magnetic dipole moments• Electric quadrupole moments• Disintegration energies• Radiations• Transition probabilities• Band structureDecay schemes, level schemes, and isobaric chains are displayed.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Nuclear Engineering and Design covers the wide range of disciplines involved in the engineering, design, safety and construction of nuclear fission reactors. The Editors welcome papers both on applied and innovative aspects and developments in nuclear science and technology.Fundamentals of Reactor Design include:• Thermal-Hydraulics and Core Physics• Safety Analysis, Risk Assessment (PSA)• Structural and Mechanical Engineering• Materials Science• Fuel Behavior and Design• Structural Plant Design• Engineering of Reactor Components• ExperimentsAspects beyond fundamentals of Reactor Design covered:• Accident Mitigation Measures• Reactor Control Systems• Licensing Issues• Safeguard Engineering• Economy of Plants• Reprocessing / Waste Disposal• Applications of Nuclear Energy• Maintenance• DecommissioningPapers on new reactor ideas and developments (Generation IV reactors) such as inherently safe modular HTRs, High Performance LWRs/HWRs and LMFBs/GFR will be considered; Actinide Burners, Accelerator Driven Systems, Energy Amplifiers and other special designs of power and research reactors and their applications are also encouraged.

Since its establishment in 1969 with the aim of developing nuclear-related academies and technology, the society has - over the past 40 years - played a significant role in Korea's emergence as the world's 6th nuclear powerhouse. Indeed, as Korea lacks natural resources, nuclear energy has made a great contribution to Korea's economic growth over the last 30 years as an economical source of energy.Compared to other energy sources, nuclear energy is more technology-intensive, so continuous technological exchange and R&D are necessary. Ever since nuclear energy was first introduced, the Korean Nuclear Society has strived to acquire new technology with a passion for academic research. Today, the society consists of 2,700 members, and the academic conferences it holds in spring and fall set the stage for active R&D and collaboration among more than 1,000 participants. Furthermore, the listing of the NET journal in SCIE has allowed the Korean Nuclear Society to step forward as an internationally-recognized organization.

Nuclear Fusion publishes articles making significant advances to the field of controlled thermonuclear fusion. The journal scope includes: * the production, heating and confinement of high temperature plasmas; * the physical properties of such plasmas; * the experimental or theoretical methods of exploring or explaining them; * fusion reactor physics; * reactor concepts; * fusion technologies.

Section A of Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research publishes papers on design, manufacturing and performance of scientific instruments with an emphasis on large scale facilities. This includes the development of particle accelerators, ion sources, beam transport systems and target arrangements as well as the use of secondary phenomena such as synchrotron radiation and free electron lasers. It also includes all types of instrumentation for the detection and spectrometry of radiations from high energy processes and nuclear decays, as well as instrumentation for experiments at nuclear reactors. Specialized electronics for nuclear and other types of spectrometry as well as computerization of measurements and control systems in this area also find their place in the A section.Theoretical as well as experimental papers are accepted.Sponsored issues publication:The journal Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research offers interested parties the option of fast publication in (supplemental) sponsored issues.
