The conference proceedings will be published in the journal Interactions, formerly known as Hyperfine Interactions, published by Springer Nature. Invited talks as well as oral and poster presentations can be included in the conference proceedings. All manuscripts will be peer reviewed according to standard international procedures before being accepted for publication in the conference proceedings. 

Submission

Deadline: last day of the conference (Sep. 5th, 2024)

The procedure for submitting manuscripts is the same as for other conference proceedings published in Interactions (formerly Hyperfine Interactions).  It is important to notice that there is no a priori page limit.  Authors are free to use as many pages as necessary.  Referees might object to manuscripts which are unnecessarily long.

Submissions to Interactions (formerly Hyperfine Interactions) take place via an online submission system.  Papers have to be submitted via the Interactions (formerly Hyperfine Interactions) website https://www.springer.com/journal/10751 by clicking on the button “submit manuscript”.  Under the “Details” tab the authors should choose the name of the conference from the drop-down list (ISIAME 2024).

The standard deadline for the electronic submission of manuscripts is noon on the first day of the conference.  This deadline might be extended with a couple of weeks, but it is advised to stick to the first deadline to ensure prompt publication of your manuscript. 

Open Access

With the consent of Springer Nature, publisher of Interactions (formerly Hyperfine Interactions), the final accepted version of all peer reviewed and accepted conference manuscripts will be available on the website of the Mössbauer Effect Data Center together with all the manuscripts of recent ICAME, LACAME, MECAME and ISIAME conferences.  All the conference manuscripts can be downloaded from this website free of charge.  Please notice that this free open access offered to the conference participants and their community is different from the open access offered to the authors, against payment, by Springer Nature upon publication of their manuscript.

About the journal Interactions (formerly Hyperfine Interactions) 

Hyperfine Interactions was created in 1975 as a scientific journal with a strict peer review procedure, with the main purpose to publish conference proceedings in the border region between nuclear physics, atomic physics and solid-state physics.  The present publisher, Springer Nature, decided to broaden the scope of the proceedings-only-journal, from January 1, 2024 on, to the whole field of physical sciences, and changed the name of the journal to Interactions.  All conference proceedings collections, published in Interactions, are listed separately under the title of the conference, on the journal’s website https://www.springer.com/journal/10751. 

Articles published in Interactions are listed and fully indexed by search and indexing databases such as Web of Science, Google Scholar and Scopus.  In 2008 Web of Science split their journals database into two: the traditional journals part and a new proceedings part, and they moved all journals they decided to be proceedings journals into that new database.  Since then, Web of Science only publishes impact indices for journals in their journals database, not for journals in their proceedings database.  However, citations to articles in Interactions (formerly Hyperfine Interactions) are still measured and included as they had been before, and journal metrics values for the journal can be found at the websites of different ranking agencies.
