Transition Metal Chemistry is an international journal dealing with all aspects of the preparation of transition metal-based compounds of all kinds, their structural, physical, kinetic and biological properties, their use in chemical synthesis as well as their application in the widest context, their role in naturally occurring systems and more.
The award-winning WIREs (Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews) series combines some of the most powerful features of encyclopedic reference works and review journals in an innovative online format. They are designed to promote a cross-disciplinary research ethos while maintaining the highest scientific and presentational standards, but should be viewed first and foremost as evolving online databases of cutting-edge reviews.

This international journal is dedicated to the rapid publication of high quality papers on the important subjects of wear and friction, together with papers on closely related aspects of lubrication, contact phenomena or surface characterization.The scope includes all aspects of physics, chemistry, materials science and mechanical engineering which relate directly to the subjects of wear and friction; papers may approach the subject from a fundamental or technological viewpoint.Thorough refereeing of all papers, in accordance with normal procedures for international journals in science and engineering, and with a specific focus on the novelty and signficance of the work presented, ensures that Wear is an international forum of high quality for multidisciplinary communications on topics which include:• The fundamental understanding of wear and frictional phenomena, including nanometre and atomic scale aspects of tribology;• Interactions between chemical processes (e.g. corrosion) and wear, and chemical aspects of lubrication (e.g. boundary lubrication);• Design and materials selection for the control of wear and friction;• Tribology of natural biological and artificial implanted materials;• Contact phenomena in the context of friction and wear;• New materials and their tribological behaviour;• Wear and friction in cutting and forming processes;• Lubricants and mechanisms of lubrication in the context of wear and friction control;• Topics in surface physics and chemistry related to wear and friction.The following types of manuscripts on all topics within the scope of the journal are welcomed:• Full-length papers containing original research work.• Short Communications giving a complete description of a limited investigation.• Reviews (with the prior approval of the Editor-in-Chief).
The main scope of eXPRESS Polymer Letters (Express Polym Lett; ISSN 1788-618X) is to provide a very fast first publication possibility related to the following topics: polymers; polymer composites; blends and alloys; nanomaterials; molecular engineering; tailor-made polymers; biodegradable and biocompatible polymers; smart materials; polymer gels and membranes; reinforcements and fillers; polymer processing technologies; rubbers and rubber technologies; interfaces, interphases and adhesion; thin layer technologies; material testing and properties; recycling; modeling and simulation. We are ready to publish any short original publication, new research result as well as review articles covering broader topics. The strict peer reviewing and editing process is very short, the publication may appear even within 3-4 months after submitting the manuscript. The journal is electronically published and indexed, is printed at the end of every year, and the printed version can be found in several libraries all over the world. eXPRESS Polymer Letters is an open access journal, the published articles can be downloaded free of charge. eXPRESS Polymer Letters is, however, not only a journal, it contains data related to other periodicals dealing with similar topics, as well as announcements of planned conferences. Therefore this journal is recommended to researchers, teachers and students active in the field of polymer science and related multidisciplinary topics. The journal is published at latest on the 1st of each month.
physica status solidi is devoted to the thorough peer review and the rapid publication of new and important results in all fields of solid state and materials physics, from basic science to applications and devices. Being among the largest and most important international publications, the pss journals publish review articles, letters and original work as well as special issues and conference contributions. physica status solidi a - applications and materials science covers the preparation, structural analysis, and numerical simulation of advanced materials, nanostructures, surfaces and interfaces, as well as properties of such materials and structures relevant for device applications (magnetic, electromechanical, or electronic devices, photonics, spintronics, sensors...). The pss journal family is one of the largest international platforms and most important publications in solid state and materials physics. In all, more than 20,000 citations to pss articles appeared in the literature throughout 2011. Article access reached the level of annually 1 million full-text downloads in 2012. The 2012 Impact Factor of physica status solidi (a) is 1.469. Total pss (a) cites have further increased to 9,404 in 2012, proving the high visibility and broad relevance of its content. Among the recent citation highlights top reviews and original research articles on, e.g., oxide and flexible electronics, nitride LEDs as well as advanced photovoltaic applications can be found (see Most Cited).
