For Authors

Contributions

Submission of a manuscript implies that the work described has not been published before, that is not under consideration for publication elsewhere and that all authors agree its publication. Responsibility for plagiarism or for abuse of proprietary material rests with the authors and the authors' organization and is in no way the responsibility of the JVR or its editorial staff. Authors should strive for maximum clarity. Care should be taken in the organization of the paper, such that a logical and consistent progression of thought is evident. An excessively complex and poorly written work can only obscure its significance. Any paper accepted for publication in the JVR is Copyright of the Journal of Vectorial Relativity and Copyright of the author(s), in an independent way. All submitted contributions will be refereed. Editorial board chooses appropriate persons in the paper's specific area of Physics for refereeing submitted papers. Contributions of authors can be classified as:
  • Proceeding: An article which has been presented in a conference.
  • Review: An article referred to the up to date of a special topic product of a compilation of previous papers.
  • Response or Comment: An article responding to or correcting another one previously published in the JVR.
  • Letter: An original article with less than 4 pages.
  • Paper: An original article with more than 4 pages.
Rules and Guidelines

For the sake of efficiency in data processing, please send your work as files .pdf (Acrobat) or .doc (MS Word) to: Journal.of.VR@hotmail.com.

Journal Papers should be concisely written in English and be no longer than 20 pages (11-point font, 16.5-centimeter-length lines, 1-interlined) and must be presented in Arial (unless another font is specified in these rules) under the following style:

1) Title: Do not use all upper case letters. Use Arial bold 18-fonts. Please, use short titles.

2) List of authors: Only the first family name must not be abbreviated. Do not use periods after initials, use only spaces. Separate authors with commas. Use Verdana italic fonts size 10. Use superscript numbering for referencing and differentiate authors.

3) Affiliation of each author will be referenced in a list located as a left footnote in the first page. It will have the following format: Institution, Department, City, Country, e-mail using Arial normal 8-point fonts. Start line with superscript numbering of referenced authors.

4) ABSTRACT. Title in italic-boldface-8 point-uppercase letters: Within the text use size 9 but normal fonts with an extension between 50 ad 250 words. The width of a line must be 80 characters (in this size the normal line's length is about 112 characters). This should be enough to describe in a succinct manner the purpose of the study, results, applications and conclusions. Do not use references in this section.

5) KEYWORDS. Title in italic-boldface-8 point-uppercase letters: Within the text use size 9 but normal fonts with an extension between 5 ad 15 words.

6) I. INTRODUCTION. Title centered, in italic-boldface-uppercase letters size 11: Within the text use 11-points-normal fonts. References are allowed. The introduction should be used for describing the scientific background of the study and an explanation of the logical sequence of appearing sections for obtaining the results and their implications. To order sections use roman numbers, starting with Introduction.

7) IV. SECTIONS. Titles of sections, centered, in italic-boldface-uppercase letters size 11: Within the text use 11-points-normal fonts. References are allowed. These sections are used to develop your proposal and to describe the procedures and methods used, the obtained results and the conclusions. Tables and graphics should be inserted near the text where they are firstly mentioned. In order to number the sections Roman numbers are due to use. Subsections should be numbered with uppercase italic letters and their subtitles in boldface-italic letters (A. Distribution of C), normal size 11 and non-centered. Appendixes should be numbered with uppercase letters (APPENDIX A), size 11 points, centered. Sub-subsections should be numbered with Arabic Numbers. Equations numbered with Arabic Numbers between parentheses, at the right end. Theorems, Lemmas, Remarks, Examples, Definitions, Propositions etc., non-centered and numbered with Arabic Numbers at the moment they appear (Corolllary 1:).

8) REFERENCES. Title centered, in italic-boldface-size 10 letters: Within the text of each reference use normal 9-point fonts, except the title of the reference (book or paper) which will be in italic letters. References should be presented in the order as they were firstly mentioned. Reference numbers should be inside brackets. Authors separated with commas, initials without periods the same as indicated in (2). Include in the reference the Editorial or Journal, year of publication, volume number, issue number, pages, and link if it is possible. Try to reduce the number of references to a maximum of 20.

How should it look author's paper in JVR format?. See the following example.

The submission mail should include the information previously requested in (1-5) without abbreviations, as well as the full postal address, telephone, Fax number, Institution, Department and position and title of the authors. The filename of the paper sent to the JVR should have the following codification: mmddyyNL; mm stands for month, dd for day, yy for year, N for the number of each paper sent simultaneously by each author that date and L for a letter-code that differentiate authors, that also simultaneously sent papers to JVR. This letter will be established by JVR. If only one paper is sent to the JVR on October 3, 2006, the filename put by the author should be: 1003061.doc ; But if this is the only one paper received at JVR, the final reference-code to be established by JVR for this paper will be: 1003061A.doc.

Once the authors send their works, they can pursue the process of evaluation through the interactive file "Evaluation" in the menu. There they will be able to analyze the reports of the Referees and to respond them if it is the case. Also they will see the status of the evaluation of their work at that moment.

All papers are reviewed by competent referees and are considered on the basis of their significance, novelty, and usefulness to the Journal readership.

Once a paper is accepted for publication, authors will be asked to provide the final version of the manuscript in MS-Word for Windows, submitted electronically by e-mail to: Journal.of.VR@hotmail.com. Authors will also be requested for additional materials, such as Technical career biographies and photographs.

Please send email to Journal.of.VR@hotmail.com if you have any questions.
