Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on experimental and theoretical studies of molecular spectra and structures. Submissions should be dedicated to high-resolution molecular spectroscopy techniques in the gas phase over the whole spectral range, from microwave to ultraviolet. We welcome studies whose results may enable the accurate determination of molecular structures and/or the simulation of spectra and radiative transfer. Applications may be related to atmospheric or (exo)-planetary studies, the interstellar medium, or industrial studies requiring remote sensing approaches for the detection of gas-phase molecular species.
Prof. Dr. Vincent Boudon
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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
