Quaternary Geochronology is an international journal devoted to the publication of the highest-quality, peer-reviewed articles on all aspects of dating methods applicable to the Quaternary Period - the last 2.6 million years of Earth history. Reliable ages are fundamental to place changes in climates, landscapes, flora and fauna - including the evolution and ecological impact of humans - in their correct temporal sequence, and to understand the tempo and mode of geological and biological processes. There is growing scientific appreciation of the complexity of the Quaternary Period. This has increased the demand on geochronological techniques to deliver increasingly more accurate and precise ages, which underpin attempts to determine the causes and consequences of events at a variety of temporal and spatial scales.Some Quaternary dating methods are well established, while others are in the early stages of development. Quaternary Geochronology will provide a readily accessible platform to rapidly communicate the latest developments and applications in these emerging fields, as well as improvements made to more traditional methods of age determination. New technological capabilities are providing a greater understanding of the underlying principles of age estimation and are stimulating innovative applications. Quaternary Geochronology will report the latest insights and discoveries to an inter-disciplinary audience concerned with events in the Quaternary Period.Quaternary Geochronology will publish research in the following areas:• Principles of geochronological methods• Advances in methodology, analytical procedures and instrumentation• Methodological standardisations and inter-laboratory comparisons• Calibrations and comparisons of different methods• Novel and groundbreaking applications in all fields of Quaternary researchWe particularly encourage the submission of: • Systematic and comprehensive studies in pure and applied contexts• Integrated and inter-disciplinary applications of geochronological data• Provocative and topical papers of immediate interest to a wide audienceThe following contributions will be accepted:• Original research papers and case studies• Review papers• Special thematic issues• Viewpoint articles• Letters to the Editors (including comments on papers published in Quaternary Geochronology)• Book reviews

Quaternary International is the official journal of the International Union for Quaternary Research. The objectives are to publish a high quality scientific journal under the auspices of the premier Quaternary association that reflects the interdisciplinary nature of INQUA and records recent advances in Quaternary science that appeal to a wide audience.This series will encompass all the full spectrum of the physical and natural sciences that are commonly employed in solving Quaternary problems. The policy is to publish peer refereed collected research papers from symposia, workshops and meetings sponsored by INQUA. In addition, other organizations may request publication of their collected works pertaining to the Quaternary.Potential Guest Editors who are interested in proposing a Thematic volume are kindly requested to contact the Editor-in-Chief, Professor Norm Catto, directly at the e-mail address ncatto@mun.ca.Guest Editors will be appointed for each volume.For more information about INQUA see http://www.inqua.tcd.ie

Quaternary Science Reviews caters for all aspects of Quaternary science, and includes, for example, geology, geomorphology, geography, archaeology, soil science, palaeobotany, palaeontology, palaeoclimatology and the full range of applicable dating methods. The dividing line between what constitutes the review paper and one which contains new original data is not easy to establish, so QSR also publishes papers with new data especially if these perform a review function. All the Quaternary sciences are changing rapidly and subject to re-evaluation as the pace of discovery quickens; thus the eclectic and comprehensive role of Quaternary Science Reviews keeps readers abreast of the wider issues relating to new developments in the field. Quaternary Science Reviews includes Special Issues on topical subjects arising from recent scientific meetings, in response to significant chances in Quaternary subject matter, or to acknowledge the achievements of some outstanding Quaternary Scientist.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Radiation Measurements provides a forum for the presentation of the latest developments in the broad field of ionizing radiationdetection and measurement and publishes original papers on both fundamental and applied research.Traditionally the journal has covered methods that comprise solid state nuclear track detectors; spontaneous and stimulated luminescence (including scintillating materials, thermoluminescence, and optically stimulated luminescence); electron spin resonance of natural and synthetic materials; nuclear magnetic resonance (including ferrous sulfate and polymer gels), and superheated emulsions (including superheated drop and bubble detectors). Physics, design and performance of radiation measurements, including computational modelling such as Monte Carlo simulations, are of relevance to the journal, as well as studies of energy-transfer phenomena, track physics and microdosimetry. Measurements and calculations of fundamental physical data, such as cross sections, reaction yields and attenuation coefficients, are acceptable within studies of radiation detection and dosimetry.Applications of interest to the journal are: personal dosimetry (including dosimetric quantities, active/electronic and passive monitoring techniques for photon, neutron and charged-particle exposures); environmental dosimetry (including radon measurements where they introduce methodological advances, predictive models, or detailed and original maps of complete or unusual geographical/geological regions); cosmic and high-energy radiation measurements (including dosimetry, space radiation effects, and single event upsets); dosimetry-based archaeological and geological dating; accident and retrospective dosimetry (including activation detectors). Papers that present novel detection techniques and applications such as illicit radiological and nuclear material detection (including contraband interdiction and safeguards verification) are also sought. Review articles are periodically solicited by the Editors.

Radiation Physics and Chemistry is a multidisciplinary journal that provides a medium for publication of substantial and original papers, reviews, and short communications which focus on research and developments involving ionizing radiation in radiation physics, radiation chemistry and radiation processing.The journal aims to publish papers with significance to an international audience, containing substantial novelty and scientific impact. The Editors reserve the rights to reject, with or without external review, papers that do not meet these criteria. This could include papers that are very similar to previous publications, only with changed target substrates, employed materials, analyzed sites and experimental methods, report results without presenting new insights and/or hypothesis testing, or do not focus on the radiation effects.A fuller though not exhaustive list of topics that are considered for publication include:Radiation PhysicsFundamental processes in radiation physics• Interaction mechanisms for example scattering and absorption of photon and particle radiations• Attenuation coefficients• X-ray fluorescence• Cherenkov effect• Polarization• Effects of periodic structures (Bragg diffraction, channelling, parametric x-radiation, etc)• Mathematical methods in radiation physics, reference dataRadiation sources and detectors• Accelerator and radionuclide spectra and other properties• Radiation fields from point and extended sources• Detector response functions• Basic physics of Dosimetry• Radiation transport• Buildup factorsRadiation Chemistry• Ionizing radiation induced ionic and radical reactions• Kinetics and mechanism of radiolysis reactions• Pulse radiolysis technique and measurements• Nanoparticle production by ionizing radiation• Radiation induced chain reactions, polymerization• Irradiation effects on polymers• Dose and dose rate effects• LET effects on chemical reactions• Pollutant removal by ionizing radiation• Computational models on radiation chemical reactionsPapers on photochemistry, microwave chemistry and thermochemistry are believed to belong to the scope of RPC only if they have strong relevance to radiation chemistry. EPR papers will only be considered for publication when the method is used for clarifying radiation chemical processes, e.g. by determining the nature of the transient intermediates. Radiochemistry papers such as tracer technique, radon or other radionuclide measurements, isotopic constitutions fall outside the scope of the journal.Radiation ProcessingRadiation Sterilization• Microbiology• Toxicology• Biocompatibility• ValidationFood irradiation• Microbiological quality• Chemical effects• Nutrition• Detection induced radioactivityPolymers• Synthesis• Polymerization• Curing• Grafting• Crosslinking• Degradation• CompositesEnvironmental• Effluent gas• Waste water• Water purification• Toxin reduction• Sludge• Recycling of wastesRadiation effects• Semiconductors• Gemstones• Crystals• CeramicsDosimetry and process control• Dosimeter systems• Analytical instrumentation• Environmental influence• Measurement uncertaintyRadiation sources and facilities for radiation processing• Electron Accelerators• Gamma and x-ray facilities• Safety issues• Transport of radioisotopes
