Journal Guide

Analysis and Applications publishes high quality mathematical papers that treat those parts of analysis which have direct or potential applications to the physical and biological sciences and engineering. Some of the topics from analysis include approximation theory, asymptotic analysis, calculus of variations, integral equations, integral transforms, ordinary and partial differential equations, delay differential equations, and perturbation methods. The primary aim of the journal is to encourage the development of new techniques and results in applied analysis.

Analysis and Mathematical Physics (AMP) publishes current research results as well as selected high-quality survey articles in real, complex, harmonic, and geometric analysis originating and/or having applications in mathematical physics. The journal promotes the dialog between specialists in these areas. Particularly welcomed is original research of the highest quality in the following active areas of analysis and mathematical physics: Conformal and quasiconformal mappings: Riemann surfaces and Teichmüller theory: Classical and stochastic contour dynamics: Dynamical systems: Geometric control and analysis on non-holonomic manifolds: Differential geometry and general relativity: Inverse problems and integral geometry: Real analysis and potential theory: Laplacian growth and related topics: Analysis in free boundary problems: Integrable systems and random matrices: Representation theory: Conformal field theory and related topics.

The home of premier fundamental discoveries, inventions and applications in the analytical and bioanalytical sciences. Analyst publishes analytical and bioanalytical research that reports premier fundamental discoveries and inventions, and the applications of those discoveries, unconfined by traditional discipline barriers.

Analytic Methods in Accident Research publishes manuscripts that deal with the development and/or application of new and novel methodologies to the study of vehicle crashes and other transportation and non-transportation-related accidents. The intent of the journal is to demonstrate how innovative methodological approaches can be used to provide new insights and quantification of the factors that affect the frequency and severity of accidents - thus providing new guidance for the implementation of appropriate countermeasures. While the focus of the journal is on the underlying analytic approach, acceptable application areas include all elements of transportation safety (road, pedestrian, air, rail, and water safety), construction safety, and any area of study where the unintended consequences of human behavior, machine failures or system failures result in property damage and/or bodily injury.

Analytica Chimica Acta provides a forum for the rapid publication of original research, and critical reviews dealing with all aspects of fundamental and applied modern analytical science. The journal welcomes the submission of research papers which report studies concerning the development of new and significant analytical methodologies. In determining the suitability of submitted articles for publication, particular scrutiny will be placed on the degree of novelty and significance of the research and the extent to which it adds to existing knowledge in analytical chemistry.Manuscripts detailing fundamental research on all aspects of analytical theory and methodology (including chemometric techniques), such as innovative instrumental, chemical and biological approaches, detectors and sensors, sample treatment methods and data treatment are especially encouraged. On the other hand, papers describing the use of routine analytical methods or straightforward extension of these methods to new sample matrices will normally not be published unless new developments are described which can be demonstrated to give very clear and quantifiable advantages over existing methods. In all submissions to the journal, authors must address the question of how their proposed methodology compares with previously reported methods.It will normally be expected that where new analytical methodologies and developments are described these will be applied to a sample matrix of suitable analytical complexity. In such cases appropriate validation of the method should be provided, together with proper statistical treatment of data. Analytical performance characteristics of new methods should be given, including sensitivity, detection limits, accuracy, precision, and interferences.Reviews are normally written by prior agreement of the editors. Potential authors are encouraged to discuss the subject matter of a proposed review with the review editor, and will be asked to provide a brief outline of the subject matter of the proposed review. Review articles should be sufficiently broad in scope to appeal to a wide cross-section of the journal's readership, but should be specific enough to permit discussion to be made at an appropriate depth. Basic methodology and principles should not be included in reviews, but suitable reference should be made to sources of this information. Above all, reviews should be critical rather than enumerative and should provide the reader with expert opinion regarding the relative merits of the various published approaches to the topic under review. Figures and Tables are encouraged in review articles. Tutorials describing the fundamental principles and practical operational details of a given analytical technique, sample processing approach or chemometric method are also welcome.

Analytical Biochemistry emphasizes methods in the biological and biochemical sciences. The journal publishes the results of original research as well as reviews of methods.Publishing Methods in:• Analytical techniques• Membranes and membrane proteins• Molecular genetics: cloning, sequencing, and mutagenesis• Novel methods of protein purification• Immunological techniques applicable to biochemistry• Immunoassays that introduce a unique approach• Cell biology• General cell and organ culture• Pharmacological and toxicological research techniquesAnalytical Biochemistry includes two additional major sections:• Reviews - review articles on methods for biological and biochemical sciences• Notes and Tips - a new section featuring methods that can be summarized in a shorter format allowing more rapid publication, including helpful "kitchen tricks."

Analytical Cellular Pathology provides a forum for pathologists and medical practitioners working in the cellular pathology field. Topics covered include cytology, carcinogenesis, cell receptors, biomarkers, diagnostic pathology, and immunopathology.

The Most Cited Journal in Analytical Chemistry

Analytical Chemistry is a peer-reviewed research journal that is devoted to the dissemination of new and original knowledge in all branches of analytical chemistry. Articles fit our scope that describe new or expanded chemical measurement approaches or that uniquely address the principles and performance of existing approaches. Articles may be theoretical or they may report experimental results. Papers dealing with established analytical methods must offer a significantly improved, original application of the method.

Subfields covered in Analytical Chemistry can include the following, as long as the manuscript focuses on improving our understanding of chemical measurements:

• Analytical operations (e.g., sampling, measurements, data analysis)
• Bioanalytical chemistry
• Bioengineering
• Chemical analysis
• Environmental sciences
• Forensics
• Materials Science
• Medical Sciences

Topics include but are not limited to:

• Chemical reactions and selectivity
• Chemometrics and data processing
• Computation, machine learning, and informatics
