While the primary article type ASR publishes is reviews (both full and comprehensive reviews as well as mini-reviews), the journal will also consider very selected and unique experimental applications, particularly on the use of spectroscopy to solve problems such as diagnostic studies in basic sciences and medicine. In these cases, the results obtained and what they mean are more important than the method. Occasionally the journal will present special issues.
The submitting author should establish their scientific credentials and qualifications to write a review. This can be achieved by providing evidence of recent experimental publications from the last three years in your cover letter. Otherwise, the review may be rejected. The review should be a critical review of referenced literature. Contact the Editor or Associate Editors for further information/clarification. Please note, a positive reply does not mean acceptance as all papers are subject to review.
Authors can choose to publish gold open access in this journal.
