Units, symbols, terminology, and chemical nomenclature
It is the policy of JPCRD to follow the recommendations of recognized international bodies such
as ISO, IUPAC, and IUPAP unless there are strong grounds for making an exception. Sources of
recommendations on symbols, terminology, and units are the following:
Quantities and Units, ISO Standards Handbook, 3rd ed. (International Organization for Stan-
dardization, Geneva, Switzerland, 1993).
Quantities, Units and Symbols in Physical Chemistry (the Green Book), 3rd ed. (IUPAC, RSC
Publishing, Cambridge, 2007).
Symbols, Units and Nomenclature in Physics, IUPAP Document IUPAP 25, 1985. [Reproduced
in Physica A 146, 1 (1987)].
A. Thompson and B. N. Taylor, Guide for the Use of the International System of Units (SI), NIST
Special Pub. 811, 2008 edition (NIST, Gaithersburg, MD, 2008).
The International System of Units (SI) should always be employed unless the Editor has granted
an exception. The nomenclature practices of Chemical Abstracts, or those based on the IUPAC
recommendations, should be followed. If you are preparing compound indices for your paper,
please consult the current CA Index Guide. It is desirable to include CAS Registry Numbers in
papers that give data for multiple chemical compounds.
Please follow the conventions for using Roman and italic type. Roman (non-italic) type is always
used for chemical formulas, units, numbers, mathematical constants and operators (π and ln),
and descriptive terms. Italics are used to denote variables, physical quantities, and functions.
The following are some examples of correct usage:
T
min
= 273 K (italicize physical quantity temperature, not descriptive “min” or unit “K”)
(Do not italicize operator “exp” or subscript “B” for Boltzmann.)
12
12
38
Avoid the ambiguous term “log”; natural logarithms should be written “ln” (preferred) or “log
e
”
while base-10 logarithms should be written “lg” or “log
10
”. Please use a minus sign (−) rather
than a hyphen (-) to denote negative numbers or subtraction. Superscripts or subscripts should
be formatted through the font group rather than raising or lowering the individual characters.
List of symbols
A list of symbols is optional. It is recommended to use a list of symbols if the paper contains
many symbols, whose meaning is not obvious, especially if the paper is relatively long. Other-
wise, symbols should be defined when they first appear in the text.
Headings and Subheadings
Headings and subheadings in the text should have a minimum of three levels and should be
numbered as follows:
• 1. (Main level)
• 1.1. (Second level)
• 1.1.1. (Third level)
The first level is normally “1. Introduction” and the last is “References.” Refer to the sections
in text as Sec. 1.1., etc., except at the beginning of a sentence where “Section 1.1.” should be
used.
Physics of Fluids (PHF)
Letters
The purpose of the Letters section is to provide rapid dissemination of important and time-
sensitive new results in the fields regularly covered by Physics of Fluids, in the form of a con-
densed communication. Results of extended research should not be presented as a series of
Letters in place of comprehensive articles. Except for length, Letters manuscripts are governed
by the same criteria as for longer articles. However, ordinarily there is a three-month time
limit, from date of receipt to acceptance, for processing Letters manuscripts.
Timeliness, current importance of the subject matter, and brevity and clarity of presentation
determine the acceptability of contributions. Feasibility studies and proposals for future re-
search are not appropriate for the Letters section and seldom will be accepted.
When submitting a manuscript, you must include a brief statement justifying its rapid (and
time-critical) publication in the Letters section. Each Letter should be self-contained and may
on occasion be followed by a comprehensive article in Physics of Fluids or elsewhere. Letters
are limited to seven (7) printed pages in length, including space for title, figures, tables, refer-
ences, and an abstract limited to 100 words; Letters do not have section headings.

Guidance is provided for page limitations if you use the LATeX template. In 2012, Physics of
Fluids had a format change. The “reprint” option has been changed to reflect the new format;
single column, single spaced.
Reference List
Note that including the article title within all references on the list is preferred by the
community. As such, we ask that you please style your references, as follows:
D. A. Lockerby, J. M. Reese, and M. A. Gallis, “The usefulness of higher-order
constitutive relations for describing the Knudsen layer,” Phys. Fluids 17 (10), 100609
(2005).
Physics of Plasmas (PHP)
Manuscript Length for PHP Letters and Brief Communications
Manuscripts for Letters in Physics of Plasmas, as well as for Brief Communications, should not
exceed 3500 words (approximately four printed journal pages). Please note that the abstract,
title, author list, references, and acknowledgments are all excluded from the 3500-word limit.
Figures, tables, and equations, however, are included and must be accounted for by calculating
a word count equivalent to the space they occupy.
Please use these guidelines for estimating length of PHP Letters and Brief Communications.
TeX users
Authors are advised to use the REVTeX 4.1 PHP style file. If the double-column version of the
manuscript obtained using the “reprint” option fits on approximately four pages (excluding
abstract, title, author list, references and acknowledgments), the length is acceptable.
Word users
Highlight the manuscript text, excluding abstract, author list, acknowledgments and
references, and note the word count at the bottom of the screen. Add to that the word-count-
equivalents for figures, tables and equations as follows:
• Figures: An average single-column figure will displace 200 words. An average double-
column figure will displace 400 words.
• Tables: 6.5 words per line, plus 13 words for single-column tables. 13 words per line, plus
26 words for double-column tables
• Equations: 7 words per line for single-column equations. 13 words per line for double-
column equations.

If the total number of words (text + figures + tables + equations) is 3500 or less, the length is
acceptable.
Physics of Plasmas Data Project
AIP Publishing and Physics of Plasmas has partnered with Zenodo to help you create links to
share the datasets underlying your figures and tables. For more details on this initiative, please
refer to the following:
• Editorial Policy on the Data Accessibility
• PXP Submission instructions

Review of Scientific Instruments (RSI)
Invited Review Articles, Invited Articles and Invited Tutorials
Invited Review Articles, Invited Articles and Invited Tutorials are published by invitation only. If
you are contacted about an Invited article, please consult with the Editor on proposed subject
material.
Articles and Notes
Three types of manuscripts on original material are acceptable: Reviews, Articles (full length)
and Notes. The latter are short contributions limited to three (3) printed pages (not generally
exceeding in length eight double-spaced manuscript pages or six printed columns, including
illustrations, references, and tables). Abstracts are required for both types of manuscript. Com-
ments on previously published articles or other subjects of importance in instrumentation may
be submitted as Letters to the Editor.
Headings in RSI Papers
Please insert section headings to structure the content and guide the reader.
Structural Dynamics (SDY)

Guidelines for Chinese, Japanese and Korean names
Authors may insert the respective characters so their names will also be displayed in Chinese,
Japanese or Korean by following the instructions below. Authors should proof the PDF of the
manuscript as produced by the Peer X-Press system on first submission to ensure that the
manuscript files have been processed correctly. In addition, it is essential that authors check
carefully any production proofs received prior to the publication of the paper.
Fonts
The following font styles will be used when typesetting Chinese, Japanese, or Korean
characters in the final publication:
• Simplified Chinese: SongMT
• Traditional Chinese: SungMT
• Japanese: MS Mincho
• Korean: Batang
Preparing for submission
Microsoft Word
If you are submitting in Microsoft Word, simply add the characters in parentheses after
the name of each author who would like their name shown in their own language. To avoid
potential problems, please use standard the Microsoft fonts for the characters.
TeX Submissions
If you use TeX to prepare your manuscript, you will need to use REVTeX 4 and the CJK language
package for LaTeX. Installing the CJK package can be quite difficult so it is best to use a TeX
distribution (such as TeXLive) that has it pre-installed.
Once the CJK package is properly installed, you will need to use the package to select an en-
coding and a font to use. The CJK markup should be as follows:
• Put \usepackage{CJK} after the \documentclass line
18
26
• \begin{CJK*}{<Encoding>}{<fontfamily>} after the \begin{document}
line
• \end{CJK*} after the \maketitle line.
For example:
\document class line {revtex4}
\usepackage{CJK}
....
\begin{document}
\begin{CJK*}{GB}{} % Use default fonts from CJK (see below)
\title{Title of Paper}
\author{Your Name (characters)}
\affiliation{Your affiliation}
...
\maketitle
\end{CJK*}
The following encodings from the CJK package are supported:
• Chinese: GB, Big5, GBK, and UTF 8
• Japanese: JIS, SJIS (Shift-JIS), and UTF 8
• Korean: KS and UTF8
Because the Big5 and Shift-JIS encodings use some reserved TeX characters, care must be
taken to process files using these encodings (see the CJK package documentation). Files may
be prepared using any of the fonts found in the CJK installation as well as the Cyberbit font for
UTF 8 encodings. Please select one of the standard fonts from the distribution. Because CJK
installations can vary by how the fonts are actually named and installed, it is safest to leave the
font family argument empty and let the TeX installation use its default font for that encoding:
19
38
\begin{CJK*}{<Encoding>}{}
Please be sure to check the PDF produced by the submission software to ensure that the
Chinese, Japanese, or Korean characters were processed correctly. Note that if you are using
UTF-8, you may need to use the
\CJKfamily
macro when processing the file on your local
machine. If using TeXLive and UTF8 as the input encoding, one of the following
\CJKfamily
macros should be inserted right before the CJK name:
• for simplified Chinese: \CJKfamily{gbsn}
• for traditional Chinese: \CJKfamily{bsmi}
• for Japanese: \CJKfamily{min}
• for Korean: \CJKfamily{mj}
It’s possible to call
\CJKfamily
more than once in case this should be necessary (for exam-
ple, to properly insert a Japanese name and then a Korean name). Before the final submission,
all
\CJKfamily
macro calls should be commented out.
Preparing Graphics
Guidelines
• If you embed figures in place in your article-text file, you will be asked to upload individual
figure files should your paper be accepted for publication.
• Number figures in the order in which they appear in text.
• Identify all figure parts with (a), (b), etc. Avoid any large size differences of the lettering
and labels used within one illustration.
• Submit illustrations in the size and resolution you wish them to appear in print.
• For ADV, APM, APP, BMF, JRSE, and SDY (online-only journals)
The maximum published width of figures is 5 3/8 inches (13.65 cm). The maximum
depth of figures should be 8 ¼ in. (21.1 cm). Legends or labels within figures should
be a minimum of 8-point type size (2.8 mm high; 1/8 in. high). A minimum of 0.5 point
width for lines.
• For JMP and PHF (one-column journals)
The maximum published width of figures is 6.69 inches (17 cm).
• For APL, APR, CHA, JAP, JCP, JPCRD, PHP, and RSI
The maximum published width for a one-column figure is 3.37 inches (8.5 cm). The
