MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS
General Instructions
- Manuscripts must be prepared in camera-ready form according to
JLTP guidelines using the LaTeX template and style files available at
official JLTP
web site. Note that although there is no
figure in the output of the example file,
the .tex file has the figure statements in it, they are just commented out.
- Do not submit your LaTeX or figure files. Submit only the camera-ready hardcopies and .pdf file generated from your LaTeX and figure files. Both the hardcopies and the .pdf file are required for submission.
- You must use the standard JLTP font sizes. If you reduce the font size
to stay within the page limit, the manuscript will be rejected.
- The submitted hardcopies of the manuscript must be of high quality
(preferably laser-printed originals), single-sided, on either 8.5'11 inch
paper or A4 paper.
Maximum Page Count
- Contributed oral and poster presentations: 6 pages
- Invited presentations: 10 pages
Helpful Notes from an Editor of JLTP (not quite verbatim)
- General information on the Journal of Low Temperature Physics and
on the preparation in the JLTP camera-ready format can be obtained
from this
page.
- Authors must make their own choice of words for the "running
header" on the camera-ready manuscript, since the choice of desired
words is a personal one and cannot be automated. Authors should
remember to put a running header on the camera-ready manuscript,
otherwise Plenum does this, which causes delays.
- Check that the camera-ready copies are the laser-printed originals,
and not some poorly reproduced copies with faint text and figures,
rendering them unacceptable.
- Figures should be included within the text, not at the end of
the text.
- In the printed JLTP issue, the size of the submitted pages will
be reduced by roughly 15%. It is therefore important that the lettering
and numbers in the figures of the papers are typed large enough.
