The purpose of the Journal of Luminescence is to provide a means of communication between scientists in different disciplines who share a common interest in the electronic excited state of molecular, ionic and covalent systems, whether crystalline, amorphous, or liquid.We invite original papers and reviews on such subjects as: exciton and polariton dynamics, dynamics, dynamics of localized excited states, energy transport in ordered and disordered systems, radiative and non-radiative recombination, relaxation processes, vibronic interactions in electronic excited states, photochemistry in condensed systems, excited state resonance, double resonance, etc, selective excitation spectroscopy, coherent processes in excited states, e.g. coherent optical transients, photon echoes, transient gratings, multiphoton processes such as optical bistability, hole burning, photochromism, multiphoton spectroscopy, new techniques for the study of excited states. This list is not intended to be exhaustive. Papers in the traditional areas of optical spectroscopy (absorption, MCD, luminescence, Raman scattering) are welcome. Papers on applications (phosphors, electro- and cathodo-luminescence, radiography, energy conversion, etc.) are also welcome if they present results of scientific, rather than only technological interest.Whatever the subject, to be accepted a paper must present some genuinely novel result of sufficient importance to justify publication in an international journal. All papers will be refereed. Authors may submit their papers if they wish to an associate editor, but the final responsibility for accepting or rejecting a paper rests with the general editor. Every effort will be made to ensure that submitted papers are acted on promptly. They should appear in print within four months of receipt in final form. Short communications are welcome and will be handled expeditiously.

Journal of Magnesium and Alloys will cover all aspects of magnesium and alloys and their products' manufacturing, including raw materials, alloy casting, extrusion and deformation, corrosion and surface treatment, joining and machining, simulation and modeling, microstructure evolution and mechanical properties, new alloys development, magnesium based composites, bio-materials and energy materials, applications and recycling.

The Journal of Magnetic Resonance presents original technical and scientific papers in all aspects of magnetic resonance, including nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) of solids and liquids, electron spin/paramagnetic resonance (EPR), in vivomagnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and spectroscopy (MRS), nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) and magnetic resonance phenomena at nearly zero fields or in combination with optics. The Journal's main aims include deepening the physical principles underlying all these spectroscopies, publishing significant theoretical and experimental results leading to spectral and spatial progress in these areas, and opening new MR-based applications in chemistry, biology and medicine. The Journal also seeks descriptions of novel apparatuses, new experimental protocols, and new procedures of data analysis and interpretation - including computational and quantum-mechanical methods - capable of advancing MR spectroscopy and imaging.With a solid track record spanning over four decades, the Journal of Magnetic Resonance is known for introducing high-quality, breakthrough articles. These have been seminal to the current state-of-the-art achieved by NMR, ESR, MRI and NQR, and it is a tradition we aim to preserve and enlarge. The Journal's readership spans the full range of disciplines impacted by magnetic resonance, including experts interested in magnetic resonance within the context of physics, engineering, materials sciences, chemistry, biophysics, structural biology, in vivo biochemistry, biology, preclinical analyses, and human imaging.Emphasis is placed on expanding the basic principles and techniques underlying this branch of spectroscopy, as well as on state-of-the-art applications of novel MR experiments to all the research areas of interest to our constituency. Manuscripts that only make routine use of well-established techniques or minor spectroscopic contributions, are not appropriate for the Journal.
