Peer Review Process

Original research articles are peer reviewed, typically by 2 reviewers, if the article, as judged by the editorial office, covers the scope of the journal, is considered of sufficient priority for the readers and has no evident significant flaws. Reviewers are invited to judge papers according their scientific visibility in the field. An all-electronic submission-reviewing-revision-acceptance system allows to reduce the time delays from submission to publication to a minimum.
