Conference Proceedings

Invited talks will be published as a special issue of the Canadian Journal of Physics. All papers will be peer reviewed.

We do not place a page limit on the length of individual contributions. The length of your paper should be driven by the topic and the space needed to produce a paper that will be cited for years to come. This is especially true for papers reviewing a particular subject matter. We roughly suggest that Progress Reports do not exceed 10 journal pages and that Reviews do not exceed 25 printed pages.

In order to provide enough time for the preparation of your manuscript, the deadline for submitting your manuscript is February 16, 2007.

The Manuscript

Instructions on how to prepare your manuscript are given on the Instructions to Authors page of the Canadian Journal of Physics. In many ways the instructions are the same as for many other journals.

Manuscripts may be prepared using LaTeX (or REVTeX). Authors are encouraged to use the CJP LaTeX style file nrc1.sty, which can be downloaded and installed from ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/nrc/. A link to this web site, and other information for authors, including the Copyright Transfer Form, can be obtained by starting from the CJP web page http://cjp.nrc.ca and following the links indicated there. Manuscripts can also be prepared as WordPerfect or MS Word files. Please submit figures in form of eps files.

All manuscripts, except those prepared using nrc1.sty, must be typed double-spaced, on one side only of quality paper 8.5 ? 11  in. (or ISO A4) with 1  in. (2.5  cm) margins. A manuscript printed on a dot-matrix printer is not acceptable. The manuscript will include, in the following order, the title page, the abstract, a brief introduction, main text, concluding section, acknowledgments, reference list, any appendices, tables (each starting on a separate page and including a title), and figure captions (typed on a separate page in numerical order). Each page of the manuscript must be numbered at the top of the page, beginning with the title page. Use an italic font for material that is to be set in italics. Manuscripts that do not conform to this format may be returned to the author for correction before review.

Submitting the Manuscript

Please submit your manuscript via the OSPREY online submission at the Canadian Journal of Physics web page. Make sure to select "Electron Beam Ion Trap" under the pull down menu under "Special Issue". Alternately, you can send a manuscript file (LaTfex, MS Word, or WordPerfect) and eps figure files to EBIT@llnl.gov. Submissions before the deadline (February 16, 2007) are very welcome.
