同⾏评审过程

General provisions

The high quality of scientific publications is ensured by a system of peer review of all articles, which allows for the selection of works containing significant scientific results, taking into account the current experience of domestic and foreign scientists and representing interest to the scientific community. The reviewers include specialists in the scientific fields covered by the journal.

After the review is completed, the author is sent a written review and a copy of the manuscript with comments from the reviewer and scientific editor for revision. When an article is published, the dates of its receipt and acceptance for publication are indicated.

The editorial board has the right to refuse to publish an article based on the results of the review, the incompatibility of the article's content with the journal's subject matter, or the unsatisfactory quality of the submitted materials.

Details

The review procedure for articles submitted to the editorial board of the Journal is aimed at ensuring the quality of articles published in the journal. All articles submitted to the editorial board for publication are reviewed. The review should provide a comprehensive and objective assessment and analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the submitted article. Both members of the editorial board of the Journal and external reviewers with a candidate or doctor of science degree, who have sufficient experience in scientific work in the scientific field stated in the article and are familiar with the requirements of the editorial board of the Journal for published materials, are involved in the review process. If possible, the reviewer should not work in the same department as the author(s) of the article. The editorial board strives to avoid conflicts of interest between authors and reviewers.

The review should be 1-2 pages of typed text. When a manuscript is submitted to the editorial board, all authors are notified of the review procedure. The names and places of work of the reviewers are not disclosed by the editorial board. The number of reviews submitted is determined by the editorial board. Usually, one review is sufficient to make a decision on publication. More than one reviewer is appointed in cases where the article is at the “junction” of sciences or scientific fields. At the discretion of the editor-in-chief, additional reviews may be appointed after the initial review has been received.

Reviewing articles is not remunerated.
