The selection will be done by the technical program committee, with help of the chair persons of the individual sessions. The publication will be free of charge for the authors. To prevent duplicate submissions, papers contributed to the special issue should be different from the papers submitted to the conference: for example, more details, or new results obtained after the conference paper was prepared should be included. A paper submitted to the conference will not be accepted as is for publication in JNST. At present, we plan to select about twenty papers for inclusion in the special issue of JNST. We are setting a page limit of 10 pages on submissions for JNST. The format (template) for contributions to the special issue of JNST is the normal JNST format. The format is available online and more details will be given once a paper is selected for submission in JNST. After the conference, an invitation to submission for the special issue will be given to the authors of the selected papers. The authors will be requested to prepare a revised/updated manuscript within 45 days of the conference. After the process of peer-review and revision, the special issue of JNST will be published in the summer of 2015. .. _sec-copyright-transfer: On the copyright transfer ------------------------- Authors who submit papers to PHYSOR 2014 are NOT subjected to transfer the copyright of the papers to anyone. A conference proceeding CD and a program booklet of PHYSOR 2014 do not own their ISBN numbers and are NOT free to access from public. It is possible for authors to submit their papers to other technical journals as is. Papers included in the conference proceeding of PHYSOR 2014 can be, of course, cited in other papers. As already announced, some papers presented in PHYSOR 2014 will be published in the special issue of Journal of Nuclear Science and Technology (JNST) after some revisions. In such cases, the copyright transfer will be asked to the authors later. Announcement to the authors of the selected papers will be made by the end of October in 2014 and the special issue is planned to be published in the summer of 2015. Furthermore, the organizing committee now plans to publish a conference proceeding as an official technical report of Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) after the conference, which will be a different publication from the special issue of JNST. Inclusion of a paper into the official technical report of JAEA will be optional. If the authors will be willing to include their paper into the official technical report of JAEA, copyright transfer will be necessary.
