For Presenters/Authors
Manuscript Submission Procedure (deadline 19-June-2026 (17-July-2026))
The submission website for the PSI-27 Special Edition of JNME is identical to the journal’s default submission website:
https://www.editorialmanager.com/jnme/Default.aspx
Important: Authors submitting to the PSI-27 Special Edition must select either “VSI: PSI-27 Proceedings_Research Articles” or, for manuscripts connected to review presentations, “VSI: PSI-27 Proceedings_Review Articles” when they reach the “Article Type” selection step in the submission process.
Following several requests from prospective contributors, we have decided to extend the submission deadline for manuscripts to the PSI-27 Special Issue of the Journal of Nuclear Materials and Energy.
The new submission deadline is Friday, 17 July 2026
This extension provides an additional four weeks beyond the original deadline of 19 June and results in a total manuscript preparation period of eight weeks after the conference.
Please note that this is a one-time extension. There will be no further extension of the submission deadline.
For incoming manuscripts the peer-review process is being initiated immediately. Any further extension would unduly delay the review schedule and the overall publication timeline of the special issue.
Authors intending to contribute to the PSI-27 Special Issue should regard 17 July 2026 as the final submission deadline.
Publication Charges
Manuscripts submitted to the PSI-27 Special Edition of Nuclear Materials and Energy are subject to the journal’s standard Open Access publication charges (APCs). No reduced rates for conference proceedings apply. Authors are encouraged to verify whether institutional or national agreements with Elsevier provide APC coverage or discounted conditions.
Manuscript Length
There is no formal page limit. However, authors are expected to ensure that the scope and length of the submitted manuscript are consistent with the scope and level of detail of the corresponding conference presentation or poster. The editors reserve the right to recommend reductions in length where a manuscript is deemed disproportionate in scope.
