NUCLEAR SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING

Nuclear Science and Engineering is the oldest peer-reviewed journal in its field. Our aim now is the same as when we started publication in 1956, which is to provide the leading source of information on fundamental and applied research in all scientific areas related to the peaceful use of nuclear energy for the benefit of all. We publish technical papers, technical notes, critical reviews, rapid communications, book reviews, and letters to the editor.Technical papers present archival, original contributions to the field of knowledge.Technical notes describe preliminary results or limited extensions of previously reported work.Critical reviews combine a focused topical overview with an extensive literature review to critically evaluate the state-of-the-art, but do not necessarily add new knowledge to the field.Rapid communications provide speedy publication, after accelerated review and processing, of innovative work of high and immediate interest to the journal readership.Book reviews give an overview of a recently published book, including a brief summary and statement of value to the community.Letters to the editor provide an expeditious medium for comments on editorial policies and for discussions on the content of other contributions.We welcome submissions that explore the following topics:Fundamental physics related to nuclear systemsTheoretical physicsRadiation physicsReactor physicsNuclear criticalityNuclear data and reactionsNeutron transportReactor core analysis and modelingUncertainty analysis and quantificationReactor and fuel performance analysisTransient analysisFluid dynamics/multiphase flowHeat transferFission product yieldsWaste product analysisDepletion/burnup of nuclear fuelsOnce your article has been assessed for suitability by the editor, it will be single-blind peer reviewed by expert referees.

核科学与工程是该领域最古老的同行评审期刊。我们现在的目标与1956年开始出版时的目标相同，即为所有人的利益提供和平利用核能的所有科学领域的基础和应用研究的主要信息来源。我们出版技术论文、技术说明、评论、快速沟通、书评和致编辑的信件。技术论文存档，对知识领域的原始贡献。技术说明描述了先前报告工作的初步结果或有限扩展。批判性评论将重点主题概述与广泛的文献综述结合起来，以批判性地评估最先进的技术，但不一定为该领域增加新的知识。快速通讯在加速审查和处理后，为杂志读者提供了对其感兴趣的创新工作的快速出版。书评概述了最近出版的一本书，包括对社区的简要总结和价值陈述。给编辑的信件为评论编辑政策和讨论其他贡献的内容提供了一个快速的媒介。我们欢迎讨论以下主题的提交：与核系统有关的基础物理学理论物理学辐射物理学反应堆物理核临界性核数据和反应中子输运反应堆堆芯分析与建模不确定性分析与量化反应堆和燃料性能分析瞬态分析流体动力学/多相流传热裂变产物产量废物分析核燃料消耗/燃烧一旦你的文章被编辑评估适合性，它将是由专家评审的单盲同行。
