The Topical Issue on “Solar Coronal Seismology” of the Space Science Reviews

(Guest Editors: Valery Nakariakov & Robertus Erdelyi).

 

Aim: To publish about 15 sufficiently specialised review articles on various aspects and recent developments of the field.

 

The typical length of a review article is to be of 23-28 pages (including figures and references). We should avoid the use of the same figures in different reviews. Clearly, we have to avoid significant overlaps, especially in introductions. I would ask the authors to pay attention to technical details and to minimise general and vague overviewing.

 

The submission deadline is 01/01/2009. Then the reviews will be properly refereed before acceptance and publication.

 

The style files can be taken from the journal web-page (goto "Author tools").
