I'm looking for a journal that will publish semi-crack pot physics theories. Not talking Josephson crackpot level. Something that will consider Ab-initio approaches on ambitious problems where the big hitters of the field are focused using another technique. Something reputable but it...

Dear everybody here, Here is a problem to solve, from shigley handbook for Machine design, it's about Journal bearing design for the shown shaft in the attachment, i know how to design the journal bearing, but i am a little bit confused about how to get the reaction forces at the two points A...

hi, who can help me with this article because in my university its not avaliable thanks http://scitation.aip.org/content/aip/journal/jmp/8/2/10.1063/1.1705193

I am starting University in September, 2014. I have some knowledge already on classical mechanics as I took optional Applied Math courses (called Mechanics 1 and Mechanics 2) in my mathematics A-Level. I am also self-studying the book Classical Mechanics by Goldstein, Poole and Safko to gain a...

Maybe this isn't the right sub-forum to post this on, so I'm sorry if that's the case... In the past I've seen downloadable templates for various journals. I'm trying to find one for the Astrophysical Journal (ApJ) but I can't seem to pull anything up. Does anyone know where I might be able...

Hi, I've been put in charge of ordering some physics journals for our labs lounge. What do you recommend? We specialize in Biophysics, but a wide range of suggestions is good. Thanks!

Hello all, I have been tasked with actually writing my own paper for the ApJ, rather than just submitting my results to my professor and letting him do the work. So, my question is this: Is there a place where I can get a sample tex file from the ApJ? I've seen many crap example files...

Hi guys I am tasked with reformatting a paper for an academic conference and I would like a nice MS word template for academic journal articles (2-column, I have graphs as well.) Can anyone enlighten me on how to have 2 columns for the paper, but basically keep the title/subtitle/author...

Is that a "real" scientific journal? Look carefully! Article in today's New York Times about the increasing number of open-access scientific journals, some or many of which have questionable legitimacy: Scientific Articles Accepted (Personal Checks, Too)

I found this website Mathgen paper accepted! | That's Mathematics! which says that a software Mathgen randomly generated a math paper which got published in some journal. I don't know how authentic is this but still quite hilarious. Don't forget to check out...

Hi there. Just looking at an astophysics journal article in which they say the temperature of a pulsar is T=300eV.. My query is the following: is T=300eV shorthand for say T=300ev/k (k=Boltzman constant) so the corresponding temperature in Kelvin is T=3.75X10^6K?

I was wondering if one can make money by getting published in scientific journals

Greetings Everyone, This is a question for those who have PhD's or anyone who published their work in some Scientific Journal. Do you need some academic background or what is the minimum academic requirement (bachelor, MSc, PhD , diploma or none) to publish your work in any scientific...

I want to find David Bohms original articles on his interpretation of quantum mechanics from 1952. And Paul Diracs 1932 paper on principle of least action in quantum mechanics. I searched for articles at my schools library and I could find articles that had sighted their names but I did not...

can i submit same research work (multiple submission) in two different journal and conference? after getting the final result i will keep the work either in the journal or in the conference. i have submitted the work to a journal and the review result will take a long time. in the...

As far I am concern, similar research paper cannot be published in different conferences. But, a research paper already published in a conference “can also be published in a journal if it is worthy of it”. Is it true?? Sorry for my childish queries.

I'm assignated to do a lab report which consist of a numerical molecular simulation of water with a very particular water model. My program is already running but my professor didn't talk a lot about the model in particular. At this point -and I think it's totally fair-, we're expected to...

Hello! Somewhat trivial question: When I open a pdf of a journal, it opens in a new window on the web browser (Opera). When I go to open a second article; sometimes when clicking on download pdf, sometimes when pressing "Go" in SFX Ex Libris, it replaces the other pdf. Sometimes I can...

Hi everyone, my first post here. I have worked out some of the problems facing physics in general and quantum mechanics more specifically in my head and am planning to submit a paper to a scientific journal to put out the ideas and have them reviewed and hopefully accepted as new clues to...
