About Galaxies
Aims
Galaxies (ISSN 2075-4434) is an international, peer-reviewed open access journal that provides an advanced forum for studies related to astronomy, astrophysics, and cosmology. It publishes reviews, research articles, communications and technical notes. Our aim is to offer to interested authors the advantages of a fast and very professional publication of their results, in particular those containing original and creative research proposals and ideas. We encourage scientists to describe their astronomical observations and theoretical results in detail. There is no restriction on the maximum length of papers. In addition, the following are especially welcomed:
- Manuscripts containing original research proposals and research ideas.
- Electronic files or software containing full details of the calculations; if unable to be published in a normal way they, can be deposited as supplementary material.
- Manuscripts containing summaries and surveys on research cooperation (for example, white papers for detecting projects/missions) and in-progress and future projects such as those funded by national governments can be submitted as they provide interesting information for a broad field of users.
