Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The International Conference on Atomic and Molecular Data and Their Applications (ICAMDATA) is a continuing series of international conferences that promote the use of atomic and molecular (AM) data in various fields of science and technology, providing a forum for the interaction of AM data producers and users and for information exchange on AM data needs and availability, and fostering cross-disciplinary cooperation between the AM data producers and users and the coordination of AM data activities and databases worldwide.
The 13th International Conference on Atomic and Molecular Data and Their Applications (ICAMDATA 2024) https://icamdata.nwnu.edu.cn, hosted by the Northwest Normal University (NWNU) Lanzhou, China, is organized in cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
New papers or extended versions of papers presented at the 13th International Conference on Atomic and Molecular Data and Their Applications (ICAMDATA 2024) are welcome.
Submissions must not be currently under review for publication elsewhere. Conference papers may be submitted only if they are substantially extended (more than 50%) and must be referenced. All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed using the normal standards of the Atoms journal, and accepted based on quality, originality, novelty, and relevance to the theme of the Special Issue.
The topics covered by the Special Issue are as follows:
- Application and needs of atomic and molecular data:
- Astrophysics and atmospheric physics;
- Inertial and magnetic fusion;
- Low- and high-temperature laboratory plasma and industrial plasmas;
- Lighting sciences and technology;
- Biomedicine and biophysics;
- Combustion and environmental sciences and technology;
- Surface physics, gaseous electronics, solid-state optics and spectroscopy, optoelectronics, etc.
- Atomic and molecular data production:
- Data collection, assessment, exchange, and dissemination;
- Standardization of data formats and industrial plasmas;
- AM databases and activities of data centers.
- Experimental and theoretical methods for atomic and molecular data generation:
- Atomic and molecular structure, spectroscopy, and radiative processes;
- Electron and photon collisions with atoms and molecules;
- Heavy particle collisions;
- Particle–surface interactions.

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. Atoms is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 1500 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.
