Peer review policy
All manuscripts are pre-checked by editors, and if appropriate, sent for single blind peer review. Contributions must be original, not previously or simultaneously published elsewhere, also are critically reviewed before they are published. For in-depth review, at least two outside referees are consulted. Reviewers are contacted before being sent a paper and are asked to return comments within 3 weeks for most papers. Reviewers may be selected to evaluate separate components of a manuscript. We greatly appreciate the time spent in preparing a review, and will consult you on a revision of a manuscript only if we believe the paper has been significantly improved but still requires input. The responsibility of final decisions on acceptance or rejection of a submitted manuscript lies with the editors. Editors reserve the right to reject papers without sending them out for review.
