The IOP Publishing 2013 pricing bulletin is now available to view online.
Some of the highlights from this year’s catalogue include:
New titles
We are pleased to announce that three new titles will be added to IOP’s journal portfolio for 2013.
- Through a new partnership with Astro, a non-commercial organization that sponsors scientists involved in laser research, Laser Physics and Laser Physics Lasers will soon become part of the IOP journal collection.
- Methods and Applications in Fluorescence, a brand-new electronic-only journal published on a quarterly basis, will be launched at the beginning of 2013.
Article EvolutionTM
The online delivery of many of our journals has been enhanced through this ongoing project, with features such as MathJax and HTML articles, allowing for an improved research experience. We are now due to roll out the next phase of our Article EvolutionTM programme by introducing article level metrics, a vital resource for researchers to validate the impact of their own work as well as the research that matters to them.
Frequency change
Plasma Science and Technology is increasing frequency from 6 issues to 12 issues a year.
