Guide for Authors

Authors should indicate that their paper is published for the first time (except in the form of an abstract or as part of a published lecture or academic thesis or as an electronic preprint), that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere, that its publication is approved by all authors and tacitly or explicitly by the responsible authorities where the research has been carried out, and that, if accepted, it will not be published elsewhere in the same form, in English or in any other languages, including electronically without the written consent of the copyright holder. If elements of the manuscript have been previously published in another article, the authors should refer to earlier work and indicate the difference between the new work and the previous one. Verbatim copying of own works and their paraphrasing are unacceptable, they can be used only as a basis for new conclusions. The Journal's policy does not exclude consideration of an article not accepted for publication by another journal.

Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to the concept, design, implementation or interpretation of the claimed study. The author must ensure that names of all co-authors are placed on the list of co-authors, and that all co-authors have read and approved the final version of the manuscript and also agreed to publish it.

After a paper has been accepted for publication, the author concludes an agreement with the Publishing House. The author should provide necessary data, print the agreement, sign it, and send it to the Publishing House.

Authors must identify who provided financial support for the research and/or preparation of the article.

All monuscripts in the Journal are published without paying royalties. The publication is free of charge.

You can submit your manuscript via the portal Naukaru.ru. Register on the website Naukaru.ru and fill your personal profile. In Comments box, please suggest full names of three potential referees for your paper, indicating their e-mail addresses and affiliations. Please ensure the potential referees are not from the same institution as any of the manuscript's authors. Note that the editor retains the sole right to decide whether or not the suggested reviewers are used. Also write your full name and a corresponding author's e-mail address.

Manuscript Preparation Guidelines

Before you send your article to the Journal for review, we strongly recommend you to carry out a final check of your submission using the Submission checklist below, at the bottom of this guideline.

The volume of the article is recommended to be within the range of 15–50 thousand characters (including gaps). The text should be in single-column format. Keep the layout of the text as simple as possible. Most formatting codes will be removed and replaced on processing the article. In particular, do not use the word processor's options to justify text or to hyphenate words. However, do use bold face, italics, subscripts, superscripts etc. The electronic text should be prepared in a way very similar to that of conventional manuscripts (see also the subsection “Electronic format requirements” below). Note that source files of Figures, Tables and text graphics will be required whether or not you embed your Figures in the text. To avoid unnecessary errors you are strongly advised to use the 'spell-check' and 'grammar-check' functions of your word processor.

Manuscript should include the following items:

  1. Title
  2. Authors’ names
  3. Authors’ affiliations
  4. Abstract
  5. Key words
  6. Full article text
  7. References
  8. Figure captions

Requirements for individual elements of the article:

1. The title should be descriptive and informative. Abbreviations and symbols are allowed only for general use, understandable to a general reader, they are used in exceptional cases and necessarily decoded in the abstract.

2. Authors’ full names. Please clearly indicate the given name(s) and family name(s) of each author and check that all names are accurately spelled.

3. Authors’ affiliations with brief postal addresses (city, region/state, country) of each affiliation, and, if available, the e-mail address of each author. Indicate all affiliations and addresses immediately after the author's name. Clearly indicate who will handle correspondence at all stages of refereeing and publication, also post-publication. Ensure that the e-mail address of the corresponding author is given and that contact details are kept up to date.

4. Abstract should be concise and factual, within 100–250 words. The abstract should state briefly the purpose of the research, its principal results and major conclusions. An abstract is often presented separately from the article, so it must be able to stand alone. References should therefore be avoided.

5. Key words (5–7 words or collocations) are placed immediately after the abstract. Please avoid general and plural terms and multiple concepts (avoid, for example, 'and', 'of'). Be sparing with abbreviations: only abbreviations firmly established in the field may be eligible. Keywords are used for indexing purposes.

6. The text of the article is typed in Microsoft Word or other word processor and is saved in the native format of the word processor in use. You may divide your article into clearly defined and numbered sections. Subsections should be numbered 1.1, 1.2, etc. (abstract, introduction, and conclusion are not numbered). Use this numbering also for internal cross-referencing - do not just refer to 'the text'. Any subsection may have a brief heading. Each heading should be written on a separate line. References to formulas are given in parentheses; formulas are made in Word formula editor or Math Type. For publication in the Journal, the text of the manuscript is sent without Figures. It is welcome to duplicate the article file with jpg or tif images inserted into the text (with a resolution of at least 300 dpi) for the convenience of the reviewers.

7. Citation in text and reference list. Every reference cited in the text must be present in the reference list (and vice versa). Citation of a reference as 'in press' implies that the item has been accepted for publication. Unpublished results and personal communications are not recommended in the reference list, but may be mentioned in the text. Examples of citations in the text: "see reviews [Asbridge, 2008a, 2008b, 2009; Mirt, Zhao, 2010]. Lemonh et al. [2015] have demonstrated this."

References in the reference list should be arranged first alphabetically and then further sorted chronologically if necessary. More than one reference from the same author(s) in the same year must be identified by the letters 'a', 'b', 'c', etc., placed after the year of publication. Please indicate all authors of the material, separating them by commas.

Examples:

Reference to a journal publication: 
Troitskaya V.A., Bolshakova O.V. Diurnal latitude variation of the location of the dayside cusp. Planet. Space Sci. 1977, vol. 25, pp. 1167–1169.

Reference to a book: 
Guglielmi A.V., Pokhotelov O.A. Geoelectromagnetic Waves. Bristol and Philadelphia: IOP Publ. Ltd, 1996. 402 p.

Reference to a website (placed after the reference list):
URL: http://omniweb.gsfc.nasa.gov/ow.html (accessed November 10, 2017).

8. Figure captions. Ensure that each Figure has a caption. Supply captions separately, as a caption list placed after the reference list, not attached to the Figure. Figures are numbered according to the order of their mention in the text. A caption should have a brief title (not on the Figure itself) and a description of the Figure. Keep text in the Figures themselves to a minimum, but explain all symbols and abbreviations used.

Artwork

Each Figure is presented as a separate file, without caption. Figures are made according to the following requirements.

– Recommended image formats are jpg, tif with a resolution of at least 300 dpi.
– The file name should reflect the Figure's sequence number, e.g., Fig_1.
– Make sure you use uniform lettering and sizing of your original artwork.
– Aim to use the following fonts in your Figures: Arial, Courier, Times New Roman, Symbol, or use fonts that look similar. 
– Size the illustrations close to the desired dimensions of the published version. 
– Do not supply files that are optimized for screen use (e.g., GIF, BMP, PICT, WPG); they typically have a low number of pixels and limited set of colors.
– Do not supply files that are too low in resolution. 
– Do not submit graphics that are disproportionately large for the content.

Electronic format recommendations

Use Times New Roman for the text, Symbol for Greek letters, Mathematical for hand-written and Gothic characters. The preferable font size is 12 pt.

Do not use automatic hyphenation.

Enter key should be pressed only to go to the next paragraph, not to the next line.

Embed tables using MS Word (Insert - Table), Excel or other special facilities of your word processor.

Formulas

Mathematical formulas (embedded in a separate line) should be made in Math Type. The formulas inserted as a table, text, or text box are not allowed.

Abbreviations and Acronyms

Abbreviations are separated with spaces (760 mm Hg), except for the most widely used ones (i.e., e.g., etc.).

Use the following geographical abbreviations and acronyms: N (north latitude), E (east longitude); SW (southwest).

Abbreviations or formulas of chemical compounds that are used as adjectives are not usually hyphenated: IR spectroscopy, ULF waves, PE film, LCD state, Na+ form, OH group.

Units of Measure

Units of measure are separated from figures by a space (100 kPa, 77 K, 10.34 A), except for anglular degrees (90°), but 20 °C, 50 %, 10 ‰. Fractional units of measure: 58 J·mol−1, 50 m/s2.

As regards complex units of measure, it is allowed to use negative degrees (J mol-1·K-1) and parentheses {J/(mol·K) or J·(mol·K)-1} if it helps to read them. The main issue is the consistency of the same units of measure.

In listing and numerical ranges, units of measure are indicated only for the latter (18-20 J/mol), except for angular degrees.

The Celsius degrees are typed as follows: 5°C, NOT 5°. Angular degrees should not be omitted: 5°-10°, NOT 5-10°.

Word Spacing

References to Figures and Tables are typed with spaces (see Fig. 1, Table 2, NOT Fig.1, Table2).

Quotation marks and brackets are not separated with spaces from the text to be quoted:
(at 300 K), (a); NOT ( at 300 K ) ( a ).

The number and paragraph signs are seperated from numbers with a space: (No. 1; § 5.65).

Numbers and letters in titles and complex numbers are typed without spaces: (IVd; 1.3.14a; Fig. 1e).

In geographic coordinates, latitude and longitude are separated with spaces: 56.5° N; 85.0° E, NOT 56.5°N; 85.0°E.

Manuscript Preparation Guidelines

Before you send your article to the Journal for review, we strongly recommend you to carry out a final check of your submission using the Submission checklist below, at the bottom of this guideline.

The volume of the article is recommended to be within the range of 15–50 thousand characters (including gaps). The text should be in single-column format. Keep the layout of the text as simple as possible. Most formatting codes will be removed and replaced on processing the article. In particular, do not use the word processor's options to justify text or to hyphenate words. However, do use bold face, italics, subscripts, superscripts etc. The electronic text should be prepared in a way very similar to that of conventional manuscripts (see also the subsection “Electronic format requirements” below). Note that source files of Figures, Tables and text graphics will be required whether or not you embed your Figures in the text. To avoid unnecessary errors you are strongly advised to use the 'spell-check' and 'grammar-check' functions of your word processor.

Manuscript should include the following items:

  1. Title
  2. Authors’ names
  3. Authors’ affiliations
  4. Abstract
  5. Key words
  6. Full article text
  7. References
  8. Figure captions

Requirements for individual elements of the article:

1. The title should be descriptive and informative. Abbreviations and symbols are allowed only for general use, understandable to a general reader, they are used in exceptional cases and necessarily decoded in the abstract.

2. Authors’ full names. Please clearly indicate the given name(s) and family name(s) of each author and check that all names are accurately spelled.

3. Authors’ affiliations with brief postal addresses (city, region/state, country) of each affiliation, and, if available, the e-mail address of each author. Indicate all affiliations and addresses immediately after the author's name. Clearly indicate who will handle correspondence at all stages of refereeing and publication, also post-publication. Ensure that the e-mail address of the corresponding author is given and that contact details are kept up to date.

4. Abstract should be concise and factual, within 100–250 words. The abstract should state briefly the purpose of the research, its principal results and major conclusions. An abstract is often presented separately from the article, so it must be able to stand alone. References should therefore be avoided.

5. Key words (5–7 words or collocations) are placed immediately after the abstract. Please avoid general and plural terms and multiple concepts (avoid, for example, 'and', 'of'). Be sparing with abbreviations: only abbreviations firmly established in the field may be eligible. Keywords are used for indexing purposes.

6. The text of the article is typed in Microsoft Word or other word processor and is saved in the native format of the word processor in use. You may divide your article into clearly defined and numbered sections. Subsections should be numbered 1.1, 1.2, etc. (abstract, introduction, and conclusion are not numbered). Use this numbering also for internal cross-referencing - do not just refer to 'the text'. Any subsection may have a brief heading. Each heading should be written on a separate line. References to formulas are given in parentheses; formulas are made in Word formula editor or Math Type. For publication in the Journal, the text of the manuscript is sent without Figures. It is welcome to duplicate the article file with jpg or tif images inserted into the text (with a resolution of at least 300 dpi) for the convenience of the reviewers.

7. Citation in text and reference list. Every reference cited in the text must be present in the reference list (and vice versa). Citation of a reference as 'in press' implies that the item has been accepted for publication. Unpublished results and personal communications are not recommended in the reference list, but may be mentioned in the text. Examples of citations in the text: "see reviews [Asbridge, 2008a, 2008b, 2009; Mirt, Zhao, 2010]. Lemonh et al. [2015] have demonstrated this."

References in the reference list should be arranged first alphabetically and then further sorted chronologically if necessary. More than one reference from the same author(s) in the same year must be identified by the letters 'a', 'b', 'c', etc., placed after the year of publication. Please indicate all authors of the material, separating them by commas.

Examples:

Reference to a journal publication: 
Troitskaya V.A., Bolshakova O.V. Diurnal latitude variation of the location of the dayside cusp. Planet. Space Sci. 1977, vol. 25, pp. 1167–1169.

Reference to a book: 
Guglielmi A.V., Pokhotelov O.A. Geoelectromagnetic Waves. Bristol and Philadelphia: IOP Publ. Ltd, 1996. 402 p.

Reference to a website (placed after the reference list):
URL: http://omniweb.gsfc.nasa.gov/ow.html (accessed November 10, 2017).

8. Figure captions. Ensure that each Figure has a caption. Supply captions separately, as a caption list placed after the reference list, not attached to the Figure. Figures are numbered according to the order of their mention in the text. A caption should have a brief title (not on the Figure itself) and a description of the Figure. Keep text in the Figures themselves to a minimum, but explain all symbols and abbreviations used.

Artwork

Each Figure is presented as a separate file, without caption. Figures are made according to the following requirements.

– Recommended image formats are jpg, tif with a resolution of at least 300 dpi.
– The file name should reflect the Figure's sequence number, e.g., Fig_1.
– Make sure you use uniform lettering and sizing of your original artwork.
– Aim to use the following fonts in your Figures: Arial, Courier, Times New Roman, Symbol, or use fonts that look similar. 
– Size the illustrations close to the desired dimensions of the published version. 
– Do not supply files that are optimized for screen use (e.g., GIF, BMP, PICT, WPG); they typically have a low number of pixels and limited set of colors.
– Do not supply files that are too low in resolution. 
– Do not submit graphics that are disproportionately large for the content.

Electronic format recommendations

Use Times New Roman for the text, Symbol for Greek letters, Mathematical for hand-written and Gothic characters. The preferable font size is 12 pt.

Do not use automatic hyphenation.

Enter key should be pressed only to go to the next paragraph, not to the next line.

Embed tables using MS Word (Insert - Table), Excel or other special facilities of your word processor.

Formulas

Mathematical formulas (embedded in a separate line) should be made in Math Type. The formulas inserted as a table, text, or text box are not allowed.

Abbreviations and Acronyms

Abbreviations are separated with spaces (760 mm Hg), except for the most widely used ones (i.e., e.g., etc.).

Use the following geographical abbreviations and acronyms: N (north latitude), E (east longitude); SW (southwest).

Abbreviations or formulas of chemical compounds that are used as adjectives are not usually hyphenated: IR spectroscopy, ULF waves, PE film, LCD state, Na+ form, OH group.

Units of Measure

Units of measure are separated from figures by a space (100 kPa, 77 K, 10.34 A), except for anglular degrees (90°), but 20 °C, 50 %, 10 ‰. Fractional units of measure: 58 J·mol−1, 50 m/s2.

As regards complex units of measure, it is allowed to use negative degrees (J mol-1·K-1) and parentheses {J/(mol·K) or J·(mol·K)-1} if it helps to read them. The main issue is the consistency of the same units of measure.

In listing and numerical ranges, units of measure are indicated only for the latter (18-20 J/mol), except for angular degrees.

The Celsius degrees are typed as follows: 5°C, NOT 5°. Angular degrees should not be omitted: 5°-10°, NOT 5-10°.

Word Spacing

References to Figures and Tables are typed with spaces (see Fig. 1, Table 2, NOT Fig.1, Table2).

Quotation marks and brackets are not separated with spaces from the text to be quoted:
(at 300 K), (a); NOT ( at 300 K ) ( a ).

The number and paragraph signs are seperated from numbers with a space: (No. 1; § 5.65).

Numbers and letters in titles and complex numbers are typed without spaces: (IVd; 1.3.14a; Fig. 1e).

In geographic coordinates, latitude and longitude are separated with spaces: 56.5° N; 85.0° E, NOT 56.5°N; 85.0°E.
