Proceedings
Proceedings are published as follows:
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 2020 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
October 9, 2020 or have an exchange by email to organize the refereeing
process. PPCF papers should aim for final submission early 2021.
- The papers published in JPCS will be non-anonymously
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 OCTOBER 9, 2020, 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 ~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 October 9, 2020, by email to 
.
