A physicist I know is looking to publish a paper on a special case of the Navier-Stokes equation; he submitted it to Physics Review Letters, who rejected it for two reasons: (1) it was too specialized, so not suitable for the broad readership that PRL targets, and (2) the physicist had made used MS Word's Word Count feature, which counts 1 formula=1 word, whereas PRL has a more restrictive equivalence that put the calculation over the top for PRL's article limit. The second reason is not so problematic, but he does not know where to submit the article for a more specialized target audience. Any suggestions or recommendations?
