Russian Journal of Physical Chemistry A

Russian Journal of Physical Chemistry A. Focus on Chemistry offers a comprehensive review of theoretical and experimental research. Articles are devoted to chemical thermodynamics and thermochemistry, biophysical chemistry, photochemistry and magnetochemistry, materials structure, quantum chemistry, physical chemistry of nanomaterials and solutions, surface phenomena and adsorption, and methods and techniques of physicochemical studies.PEER REVIEWRussian Journal of Physical Chemistry A is a peer reviewed journal. We use a single blind peer review format. Our team of reviewers includes over 150 reviewers, both internal and external (80%). The average period from submission to first decision in 2017 was 20 days, and that from first decision to acceptance was 50 days. The rejection rate for submitted manuscripts in 2017 was 44%. The final decision on the acceptance of an article for publication is made by the Editorial Board.Any invited reviewer who feels unqualified or unable to review the manuscript due to the conflict of interests should promptly notify the editors and decline the invitation. Reviewers should formulate their statements clearly in a sound and reasoned way so that authors can use reviewer’s arguments to improve the manuscript. Personal criticism of the authors must be avoided. Reviewers should indicate in a review (i) any relevant published work that has not been cited by the authors, (ii) anything that has been reported in previous publications and not given appropriate reference or citation, (iii) any substantial similarity or overlap with any other manuscript (published or unpublished) of which they have personal knowledge.

《俄罗斯物理化学杂志A：聚焦化学》提供了一个全面的理论和实验研究综述。文章涉及化学热力学和热化学、生物物理化学、光化学和磁化学、材料结构、量子化学、纳米材料和溶液的物理化学、表面现象和吸附以及物理化学研究的方法和技术。同行评审《俄罗斯物理化学杂志A》是一份同行评议的期刊。我们使用单一的盲同行评审格式。我们的审稿人团队包括超过150名审稿人，包括内部审稿人和外部审稿人(80%)。2017年从提交到首次评审的平均周期为20天，从首次评审到验收的平均周期为50天。2017年投稿退稿率为44%。接受发表文章的最终决定由编辑委员会作出。被邀请的审稿人因利益冲突，认为不符合审稿条件或者不能审稿的，应当及时通知审稿人，并予以拒绝。审稿人应以一种合理合理的方式清晰地阐述自己的观点，这样作者才能利用审稿人的观点来完善稿件。必须避免对作者的个人批评。评论者应该显示发表的一篇评论(我)任何相关的工作没有被引用的作者；(2)任何已报道在以前的出版物和没有适当的参考或引用；(3)任何实质性相似或重叠与其他手稿(发表或未发表)的个人知识。
