Solid State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance publishes original manuscripts of high scientific quality dealing with all experimental and theoretical aspects of solid state NMR. This includes advances in instrumentation, development of new experimental techniques and methodology, new theoretical insights, new data processing and simulation methods, and original applications of established or novel methods to scientific problems of product and procedure developments. Typical areas for such applications include:
- Solid state chemistry/materials science: glasses, ceramics, composites, cements, solid electrolytes, ceramic superconductors, optical and electronic devices.
- Surface chemistry/catalysis: zeolites and other catalytic materials, molecules on catalyst surfaces, metal and semiconducting clusters.
- Polymer science and characterization: structural polymers, conducting polymers, biopolymers, polymer degradation and stabilization.
- Geology/mineralogy: silicates, clays and other minerals, coal, oil shales, applications to soil science.
- Biochemistry/biology/medicine: solid state structure of proteins and other physiologically important compounds, membrane structure and diffusion, structure and degeneration of bone.
- Physics: electronic structure of metals, alloys, semiconductors, superconductors, tunneling and other quantum effects, relaxation phenomena.
Solid State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance is intended to provide a publication focus for papers dealing with magnetic resonance of stable nuclei as the principal technique, papers that are currently widely dispersed in many journals and conference proceeding. Specifically, the journal will be of interest to academic and industrial researchers engaged in the development of new NMR techniques and their application to structural analysis.
Submission of Manuscripts
Manuscripts must be written in English and should be submitted in quadruplicate (one original and three photocopies), including four sets of good-quality figures, to:
Solid State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance
Editorial Office
525 B Street, Suite 1900
San Diego, CA 92101-4495, USA
Tel: (619) 699-6218; Fax: (619) 699-6280
E-mail: ssnmr@elsevier.com
There are no submission fees or page charges. Each manuscript should be accompanied by a letter outlining the basic findings of the paper and their significance.
Online Submission of Manuscripts. Solid State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance manuscripts may be submitted using the Elsevier electronic submission tool. To use this submission route, please go to the Web site and upload your article and its associated artwork. A PDF is generated and the reviewing process is carried out using that PDF. All correspondence between editor and author takes place by e-mail, and paper copies are not required at the original submission stage. To submit your paper online, please Click here
Alternative Methods of Submission. Authors also have the option of transmitting the text and artwork of their manuscript via computer disk or e-mail, each time a new version is submitted (please label files with manuscript/production number). Submission as an e-mail attachment is acceptable provided that all files are included in a single archive the size of which does not exceed 2 megabytes. Manuscripts prepared using LaTeX(2e) are welcome (see below). Hard-copy printouts of the manuscript and art that exactly match the electronic file must be supplied along with the disk or e-mail. The manuscript will be edited according to the style of the journal, and authors must read the proofs carefully.
Manuscripts are accepted for review with the understanding that no substantial portion of the study has been published or is under consideration for publication elsewhere and that its submission for publication has been approved by all of the authors and by the institution where the work was carried out. Manuscripts that do not meet the general criteria or standards for publication in Solid State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance will be immediately returned to the authors, without detailed review.
Authors submitting a manuscript do so on the understanding that if the manuscript is accepted for publication, copyright in the article, including the right to reproduce the article in all forms and media, shall be assigned exclusively to the Publisher. The Copyright Transfer Agreement should be signed by the appropriate person.
Authors are responsible for obtaining permissions to reprint previously published figures, tables, and other material.
Types of Papers
Solid State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance publishes Notes, Letters to the Editor, Book Reviews, and Reviews in addition to Regular Articles.
Templates
LaTeX templates and detailed documentation for its use are available for downloading from the Elsevier LaTeX Support page (http://www.elsevier.com/locate/latex). Note that the use of other specialized versions of TeX or extensive use of custom macros may necessitate conventional typesetting from the hard-copy manuscript. The use of templates is optional.
If the LaTeX file is suitable, proofs will be produced without re-keying the text. It should be noted that due to defined typesetting standards and the complex requirements of electronic publishing, the Publisher will not always be able to exactly match the layout the author has submitted. The template is only intended to be used in assisting with the preparation and submission of manuscripts and its adoption will neither speed nor delay publication. Elsevier can handle most major word processing packages and in general most formatting applied by authors for style and layout is replaced when the article is being typeset.
Preparation of Manuscript
Manuscripts should be double-spaced throughout on one side of 8.5 x 11-inch or A4 white paper. Pages should be numbered consecutively and organized as follows:
The Title Page (p. 1) should contain the article title, authors' names and complete affiliations, footnotes to the title, and the address for manuscript correspondence (including e-mail address and telephone and fax numbers).
The Abstract (p. 2) must be a single paragraph that summarizes the main findings of the paper in less than 150 words. After the abstract a list of up to 10 keywords that will be useful for indexing or searching should be included.
The Introduction should be as concise as possible, without subheadings.
Materials and methods should be sufficiently detailed to enable the experiments to be reproduced.
Results and Discussion may be combined and may be organized into subheadings.
Acknowledgments should be brief and should precede the references.
References should be cited in the text by square brackets. The list of references should be given on a separate page in numerical order. Journal names should be abbreviated according to Chemical Abstracts' Service Source Index. Only articles that have been published or are in press should be included in the references. Unpublished results or personal communications should be cited as such in the text. In the reference list, the styling, punctuation, and capitalization should conform of the following:
[1] F. Marica, R. F. Snider, Solid State Nucl. Magn. Reson. 23 (2003) 28-49.
[2] F.M. Ashcroft, Ion Channels and Disease. Academic Press, San Diego, 1998.

Figures
Figures should be in a finished form suitable for publication. Place each figure on separate sheets of paper. Number figures consecutively with Arabic numerals, and indicate the top and the authors on the back of each figure. Lettering on drawings should be professional quality or generated by high-resolution computer graphics and must be large enough to withstand appropriate reduction for publication. Please visit our Web site at http://authors.elsevier.com/artwork for detailed instructions on preparing electronic artwork. Color Figures. Illustrations in color can be accepted only if the authors defray the costs. Mounted color figures must be submitted on paper or flexible board due to the nature of the reproduction process.
Tables
Tables should be numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals in order of appearance in the text. Type each table double-spaced on a separate page with a short descriptive title typed directly above and with essential footnotes below. Authors should submit complex tables as camera-ready copy.
Proofs
Proofs will be sent to the corresponding author. To avoid delay in publication, only necessary changes should be made, and proofs should be returned promptly. Authors will be charged for alterations that exceed 10% of the total cost of composition.
