Advances in Investigation of the Laboratory and Space Plasma: Data, Modeling, and Applications

Dear Colleagues,

The aim of this Special issue is to present cutting-edge research and new theoretical and experimental results connected with the physics of plasmas, including numerous fundamental and applicative processes. All these processes are crucial for comprehension plasma, which is a common and frequently studied state that can be found at almost all scales from the astrophysical scale (stars, interplanetary medium, etc.) to the different types of nanosystems on the atomistic and elementary particle level.  In parallel with this, the efficiency of theoretical analysis and modeling of these environments depends on novel atomic data and their sources.  This SI will bring together physicists, astronomers and geophysicists, as well as data scientists, to review the present stage of research, with the aim of improving our knowledge in this field, and to better understand the significance of this topic.

We invite theoretical and experimental submissions, as well as survey papers and comprehensive reviews. 

Prof. Dr. Vladimir Sreckovic
Guest Editor

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
