Instruction for Authors

【官网信息】

Chinese

Physics B (Chin. Phys. B), formerly titled Chinese Physics, is

published monthly in English by the Chinese Physical Society (CPS) and

IOP Publishing. It is an international academic journal, aiming to

publish Original Research Papers, Rapid Communications, and Reviews on

the latest developments and achievements in all branches of physics

worldwide except nuclear physics and physics of elementary particles and

fields. The journal actively organizes Special topics and Topical

reviews. It has three feature columns of Data Papers, Instrumentation

and Measurement, and Computational Programs for Physics.

Chin. Phys. B has already been included in some world famous international index systems including SCI, EI, Scopus, and INSPEC.

Chin.

Phys. B accepts manuscripts that neither have been published in any

form nor are currently under consideration for publication at any other

journal. Meanwhile, the copyright transfer agreement, whose form can be

found and downloaded from the website of Chin. Phys. B, should be

signed. A scanned copy of the signed copyright transfer agreement should

be uploaded in the full text uploading webpage during the manuscript

submission process.

Chin. Phys. B has the following article types:

(1) Original research papers (no length limit): Reports of original research of high importance.

(2)

Letters (length limit: 5000 words): Brief communications presenting

high-impact, cutting-edge research within CPB’s scope. The Letters

benefit from accelerated peer review and priority publication. Authors

should justify in the cover letter why their work requires this

expedited format.

(3) Rapid Communications (no length limit): Rapid and concise reports of preliminary research findings with common interest.

(4)

Reviews (no length limit): Summation of and comment on the recent

advances in a specific research area including perspective of the

further development of the subject.  Review of the research

achievements made by a scientist or a group of scientists who have

systematically worked on the subject will be most encouraged. The review

is required to include the authors' own substantial works.

(5)

Data Papers (no length limit): Dedicated to publishing experimental,

theoretical, and computational data (dataset or database) with high

quality and reuse value in physics. The data will be deposited in an

accredited data repository, and data records are linked in the Data

Paper to facilitate data access. The main content of the Data Paper

should include the methods used to collect the data, the data source and

the data usage notes. In-depth analyses and discussion of the Data are

not required. The Data Paper can be complementary to the traditional

research articles, and may be used to describe datasets that have been

analyzed in other publications.

(6)

Instrumentation and Measurement (no length limit): Dedicated to

publishing new developments in physical instrumentation, apparatuses,

measurement techniques, and related measurement theory. Manuscript

should emphasize the novelty and significance of the reported method, as

well as the improvement of specific indicators such as uncertainty,

precision and/or accuracy of the measurement presented. Examples or

applications are encouraged to demonstrate its performance.

(7) Computational Programs for Physics (no length limit)：Dedicated

to promoting the sharing and cooperation of computer programs developed

for physics. Both research papers and review articles are welcome. Good

computational programs are the focus of this type of papers, whereas

new physics and results are not necessary for acceptance. A good program

should contain at least one of these factors: accuracy, efficiency, new

functionality, accessibility, expansibility, etc. The main content of

the paper usually should include the methods used in the program, the

description of the program (anything important and special in the

program), the verification and benchmark of the program, and application

examples. The related programs will be deposited in an accredited

repository with links provided in the paper to facilitate the program

access.

The

research results should be sufficiently novel and interesting to

physical scientists. The manuscripts should be well organized and

clearly written in English without any mistake in grammar. The

manuscript should be prepared using Microsoft Word or LaTeX, including

figures, photos, and tables (if any) arranged in appropriate place(s) in

its text.

The

items included in the manuscript should be arranged as follows: 1) full

title of the manuscript; 2) author's name; 3) author's affiliation; 4)

abstract; 5) keywords; 6) PACS numbers, no more than 4 sets; 7) main

text; 8) data availability; 9) acknowledgements (including the funding

support); and 10) references. Special attention should be paid to both

the title and the Abstract, which will be indexed in major databases and

searched for by readers via Internet. Accurate and informative title

and abstract are very helpful to attract the readers' more attention.

For

more information on how to prepare your manuscript, please see the "How

to prepare your manuscript" at

cpb.iphy.ac.cn/EN/column/column30.shtml). And then the full manuscript

should be submitted to the editorial office of Chin. Phys. B through our

electronic submission system at website http://cpb.iphy.ac.cn.

Authors

should not list AI Chatbots or Large Language Models (LLMs) as an

author or co-author, nor cite AI as an author. Authorship implies

responsibilities and tasks that can only be attributed to and performed

by humans. Authors using LLMs to assist in generating ideas and/or

aiding drafting of the paper should declare this fact and provide full

transparency of the LLM used (name, version, model, source) within the

paper. The disclose statement should be added to the Methods section or

the Acknowledgment section of the manuscript. This statement does not

apply to the use of basic tools for checking grammar, spelling,

references, etc. Format of the statement: During the preparation of this

work the author(s) used [NAME TOOL/SERVICE] in order to [reason]. After

using this tool/service, the author(s) reviewed and edited the content

as needed and take(s) full responsibility of the content of the

publication.

All

manuscripts submitted to Chin. Phys. B are pre-reviewed by editors and

Editorial Board Members. Those passing the pre-review will be sent to at

least two referees. Sometimes we will send the author revised

manuscript to the referees for finial recommendation. The

editor-in-chief and the associate editors of Chin. Phys. B will make the

final decision according to the peer review reports and the authors’

revisions.

There

is no submission fee for peer review. For submissions within China,

upon acceptance, the author is required to pay an article processing

charge based on the number of  typeset pages; after publication, the corresponding author will receive a remuneration for their contribution.

Chin.

Phys. B opens a “Green Channel” for excellent research work recommended

by the editorial board members or referees. These results will be

reviewed and published in a very short time..

The

author should keep the original manuscript and the manuscript accession

number. If the author is not informed that his manuscript is accepted

three months after submitting his manuscript, he may treat it at will,

but he should inform the editorial office of Chin. Phys. B about the

retreat.
