Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, particularly owing to technological progress, there has been increasing interest in radiation and its applications in different sectors: the nuclear industry, medical and biological sciences, diagnostics, space exploration, engineering, and production sectors that use naturally radioactive raw materials in addition to the healthiness of living and working environments. Concurrently, it is becoming increasingly necessary to define protocols that can also guarantee human radiation protection, and for this reason, it is important to have methodologies and techniques for measuring radiation.
Considering the interest in this topic, we are organizing a Special Issue entitled “Latest research in radiation detection and protection”, aimed at reporting the latest discoveries of researchers and professionals in the sector, including the following topics:
- Innovative materials and methods in radiation detection and monitoring;
- New applications in radiation detection and monitoring
- Protocols for radiation protection
- Environmental measurement
- Models and simulations for dose calculation
- Radiation protection
- Review papers and forward-looking scientific research

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
