We welcome materials that discuss new or little-studied methods for obtaining and converting types of energy, identifying their prospects for practical application, as well as articles that cover in an interesting and entertaining way the activities of various departments of the Russian Academy of Sciences in the following areas: new energy information technologies, bioenergy, energy of living matter, cosmic energy, etc.
Avaliação
Peer review is aimed at ensuring the quality of articles published in the journal. The review must contain an objective assessment and analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of the presented article.
Reviewing is carried out by members of the journal's editorial board or by third-party reviewers recommended by members of the editorial board. All reviewers have a candidate or doctorate degree and have sufficient experience in scientific work in the scientific direction stated in the article. All reviewers are familiar with the requirements imposed by the journal's editors for published materials.
The reviewer, as a rule, should not work in the same organization as the author(s) of the article. The editors strive to eliminate “conflicts of interest” between authors and reviewers.
The names and place of work of the reviewers are not disclosed by the editors.
Reviewing articles is not paid.
The number of submitted reviews is determined by the editors. Usually one review is enough to make a decision on publication. More than one reviewer is appointed in cases where the article is carried out at the “junction” of sciences or scientific directions, or if the opinions of the members of the editorial board about the publication differ. By decision of the editor-in-chief (or his deputy), additional reviewing may be assigned after receiving the initial review.
The review can be written in any form. The scope of the review is not regulated.
The editors inform the author of the results of the review and the decision to publish. Possible solutions: a) to reject the article outright; b) to accept the article in its present state; c) publication is possible subject to changes and corrections made by the author. In the latter case, if the author(s) agree with the reviewer's comments, he/she must make changes to the article and resubmit it. With minor comments requiring only editorial corrections, and with the consent of the author, a decision may be made to publish the article.
The final decision on the possibility of publishing an article is made by the editor-in-chief of the journal (or deputy editor-in-chief) together with the scientific editor of the relevant department, taking into account the received review (reviews), as well as the motivated response of the author(s) of the article.

Publishing Ethics
- Introduction
1.1. The publication in a peer reviewed learned journal, serves many purposes outside of simple communication. It is a building block in the development of a coherent and respected network of knowledge. For all these reasons and more it is important to lay down standards of expected ethical behaviour by all parties involved in the act of publishing: the author, the journal editor, the peer reviewer, the publisher and the society.
1.2. Science journals have a supporting, investing and nurturing role in the scholarly communication process but is also ultimately responsible for ensuring that best practice is followed in its publications.
1.3. Science journals take its duties of guardianship over the scholarly record extremely seriously. Our journal programmes record «the minutes of science» and we recognise our responsibilities as the keeper of those «minutes» in all our policies not least the ethical guidelines that we have here adopted.
- Duties of Editors
2.1. Publication decision – The Editor of a journal is solely and independently responsible for deciding which of the articles submitted to the journal should be published, often working on conjunction with the relevant society (for society-owned or sponsored journals). The validation of the work in question and its importance to researchers and readers must always underwrite such decisions. The Editor may be guided by the policies of the journal’s editorial board and constrained by such legal requirements as shall then be in force regarding libel, copyright infringement and plagiarism. The editor may confer with other editors or reviewers (or society officers) in making this decision.

Editors should recuse themselves (i.e. should ask a co-editor, associate editor or other member of the editorial board instead to review and consider) from considering manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or (possibly) institutions connected to the papers.
2.5.Vigilance over published record – An editor presented with convincing evidence that the substance or conclusions of a published paper are erroneous should coordinate with the publisher (and/or society) to promote the prompt publication of a correction, retraction, expression of concern, or other note, as may be relevant.
2.6. Involvement and cooperation in investigations – An editor should take reasonably responsive measures when ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper, in conjunction with the publisher (or society). Such measures will generally include contacting the author of the manuscript or paper and giving due consideration of the respective complaint or claims made, but may also include further communications to the relevant institutions and research bodies.
- Duties of Reviewers
3.1.Contribution to Editorial Decisions – Peer review assists the editor in making editorial decisions and through the editorial communications with the author may also assist the author in improving the paper. Peer review is an essential component of formal scholarly communication, and lies at the heart of the scientific method. Science journal shares the view of many that all scholars who wish to contribute to publications have an obligation to do a fair share of reviewing.
3.2. Promptness – Any selected referee who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the editor of journal and excuse himself from the review process.

4.1.1. Authors of reports of original research should present an accurate account of the work performed as well as an objective discussion of its significance. Underlying data should be represented accurately in the paper. A paper should contain sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the work. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behaviour and are unacceptable.
4.1.2.Review and professional publication articles should also be accurate and objective, and editorial 'opinion’ works should be clearly identified as such.
4.2. Data Access and Retention – Authors may be asked to provide the raw data in connection with a paper for editorial review, and should be prepared to provide public access to such data (consistent with the ALPSP-STM Statement on Data and Databases), if practicable, and should in any event be prepared to retain such data for a reasonable time after publication.

4.3.1. The authors should ensure that they have written entirely original works, and if the authors have used the work and/or words of others, this has been appropriately cited or quoted.
4.3.2. Plagiarism takes many forms, from ‘passing off’ another’s paper as the author’s own paper, to copying or paraphrasing substantial parts of another’s paper (without attribution), to claiming results from research conducted by others. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behaviour and is unacceptable.
4.4. Multiple, Redundant or Concurrent Publication
4.4.1. An author should not in general publish manuscripts describing essentially the same research in more than one journal of primary publication. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behaviour and is unacceptable.
4.4.2. In general, an author should not submit for consideration in another journal a previously published paper.
4.4.3. Publication of some kinds of articles (eg, clinical guidelines, translations) in more than one journal is sometimes justifiable, provided certain conditions are met.
