The Journal covers a wide range of topics under radiation and plasma sciences. The range of contributions encompasses: radiation physics; radiochemistry, radiobiology and physical effects of medical irradiation, including research on radiative cell degeneration; optical, electrical and mechanical effects of radiation, and their secondary effects such as diffusion and particle emission from surfaces; plasma techniques and plasma phenomena. On plasma science the Journal covers all areas of fusion, space and low temperature plasmas.
Plasma
The Journal covers all areas of Plasma Science and Technology. It solicits papers on fusion theory, modelling and experiments, tokamak, stellarator, other fusion devices, plasma equilibrium and transport, improved modes, etc. While considering fusion energy the journal intends to give a special emphasis on the environmental aspects of the energy production. On space plasma it covers all areas – ionosphere, magnetosphere, solar plasma, radiation belt, solar wind, space weather effects and also the physics of the lower atmosphere. The Journal also covers all areas of laboratory low temperature plasma physics, laser-plasma interactions, plasma accelerators and plasma processing technology.
Radiation
Topics covered include: atomic and electronic properties of defects induced by radiation; the influence of such defects on lattice properties and processes; the lattice-defect approach to solid state reactions such as clustering, precipitation, laser annealing and the role of impurities; defect dynamics in a non-steady state such as under-particle or electromagnetic irradiation, or during rapid temperature change; radiation enhanced oxidation; problems associated with the metastable nature of amorphous materials and surface modifications.
All research articles published in Radiation Effects and Defects in Solids have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial screening by the Editor and refereeing by anonymous referees.
All peer review is single anonymized.
