Central European Journal

Global visibility for physics findings from Central and Eastern Europe is the main aim of a new online journal. The peer-reviewed Central European Journal of Physics debuts this month. It will cover all areas of physics and will be entirely in English. Says founding editor Janos Lendvai, a solid-state physicist at Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, Hungary, “We know there is some very good research done and many very good papers written in our region but—resulting from yesterday’s political isolation or today’s financial misery in Central and Eastern Europe—they cannot always find their way to publication.” CEJP, Lendvai adds, is “much more authors-oriented” than other journals. Among its services, the new journal offers support in language and technical editing. Authors do not have to come from Central or Eastern Europe.

CEJP and its sister journals in chemistry and mathematics are published by Central European Science Journals with financial and managerial support from Internet Investors Co, a Polish venture capital company. For more information, including subscription costs, see http://www.cesj.com/physics.html .
