The project on independent on-line library of Blackhorse Scientific Publishers has been intorduced as early as in 1999 when Blackhorse became an independent publishing house. During previous Springer time, several efforts was made to create the up-to-date scalable and relayable database. However, on that time no such similar on-line library existed in Poland. So, the new venture to offer the full text database containing all manuscripts published at Blackhorse\'s journals started in June 1999. Just amonths thereafter, Blackhorse became a registrant of The Digital Object Identifier Foundadtion, Inc. (Washington, DC) and started to collect the manuscripts accordant to the DOI standards. The special numbering system providing and assuring the full control over several manuscripts and unifing them was developed and introduced into the standarized company's workflow.

Particuology, an international bimonthly journal, is jointly sponsored by the Chinese Society of Particuology and the Institute of Process Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and is published by Elsevier B. V. and Science Press.The word Particuology was coined to parallel the technical terminology for the science and technology of particles by combining the Latin prefix particula for particles and the Greek suffix logia denoting subject of study. Particuology is built upon all related branches of the physical sciences (especially physics and chemistry) and mathematics, and connects their fundamental laws to engineering particle systems, spanning a wide range of chemical, petrochemical and pharmaceutical industries, functional materials, and human activities dealing with energy and the environment.This Journal purports to present the best papers in research, engineering and application in the overall field of Particuology, ranging from the molecular level to the system level, including:Particle characterization and measurement;Particle preparation, synthesis and modification;Granular system and bulk solids technology;Fluidization and particle-fluid system;Aerosol;Applications of particle technology.The editors particularly welcome contributions on newly emerging topics that fall within the broad scope of Particuology.
The James Clerk Maxwell Young Writers Prize 'I feel deeply honored and humbled to have received such a prestigious award...[It] represents to me yet another proof that the scientific community does not overlook hard work and high research standards. Looking to the future, having received this recognition will certainly be a source of motivation for me to keep up doing quality research' - Dr Julian J. Rimoli (Georgia Institute of Technology, USA), 2010 winner For more information about past winners, their papers and for details on how to apply for the next $1000 prize go to the prize website The Editors of Philosophical Magazine consider for publication contributions describing original experimental and theoretical results, computational simulations and concepts relating to the structure and properties of condensed matter. The submission of papers on novel measurements, phases, phenomena, and new types of material is encouraged. Part A (Materials Science) carries papers where, in general, the phenomena and interpretation are on a microscopic or atomic scale, for example physical, mechanical and defect-related properties studied by techniques such as electron microscopy, indentation, differential scanning calorimetry and infrared spectroscopy. Part B (Condensed Matter Physics) carries papers where, in general, the phenomena and interpretation are on an electronic scale, for example optical and electrical properties studied by techniques such as electrical conductivity, magnetic susceptibility, nuclear magnetic resonance and photoemission spectroscopy. The above division is not binding and papers on quantum-related phenomena, even if on the atomic scale, are more likely to be classed as 'physics' and be published in Part B, whereas papers reporting optical measurements to characterize the behaviour of, say, glassy alloys as a function of composition will be considered as 'materials science' and appear in Part A. Philosophical Magazine Letters is the rapid communications part of Philosophical Magazine and publishes short and timely contributions in the same fields. Manuscripts are considered on the strict condition that they have been submitted only to Philosophical Magazine, that they have not been published already, and that they are not under consideration for publication elsewhere.

The scope of Physica B comprises all condensed matterphysics, including both experimental and theoretical work. Papers should contain a new experimental, calculated, or theoretical result of which the physics is properly discussed.The requirement of the presence of some new condensed matter physics means that typical materials science papers which, for instance, mainly concern a new more efficient or cheaper preparation method of a material or the optimization of an already known physical property of a material with the aim of application, fall outside the scope of Physica B.Note: Plagiarism, or copying text or results from other sources, is unethical behavior and is not tolerated at Physica B.
