Proceedings
Proceedings are published in the book series "Theory of Fusion
Plasmas"
As usual, papers will be published in a refereed
journal with IOP. The journal will be Plasma Phys. Contr. Fusion (PPCF), for the main
papers, and Journal of Physics Conference Series (JPCS) for the other papers.
- The papers published in PPCF will follow the usual
refereeing process of this journal and will be published as a cluster of papers
related to the Varenna-Lausanne Theory of Fusion
Plasmas 2018 Conference.
Follow the guidelines
and the LaTeX templates. Note that for
PPCF papers from non-invited speakers, we need to receive a pdf by Friday
August 24, 2018 or have an excahnge by email to
organize the refereeing process. For invited PPCF papers, the deadline is end
of September.
- The papers published in JPCS will be refereed mainly by
the scientific committee and participants of the conference, supervised by X. Garbet and O. Sauter, acting as
Editors. The JPCS papers will have a header stating explicitly that the papers have been
refereed. Naturally, the refereeing process will be lighter (typically one
referee) than the PPCF publication.
Follow the guidelines
and the LateX templates. Note that YOU
NEED TO PROVIDE THE PDF PAPER BY FRIDAY AUGUST 24, 2018, so that we can
organize the refereeing process in due time.
When
submitting the paper, the author can propose a publication in PPCF or JPCS,
however the final decision is under the responsibility of the scientific
committee. Typically invited papers are expected to be published in PPCF and
contributed papers in JPCS.
Papers, invited (typically 8-10 pages, but no hard limit) and contributed
(typically 6-8 pages, but no hard limit), have to follow the Latex guidelines
and templates given for PPCF and for JPCS (see above) respectively.
The
deadline for the JPCS papers is the week before the conference. Thus send the
paper before August 24, 2018, by email to 
.
