Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The 14th International Beam Instrumentation Conference (IBIC 2025) will be held in England in the beautiful city of Liverpool between 7th–11th September 2025. The conference will be jointly hosted by STFC, the Cockcroft Institute and the John Adams Institute. IBIC is dedicated to exploring the physics and engineering challenges of beam diagnostic and measurement techniques for particle accelerators worldwide. It brings together the international community of experts in instrumentation for particle accelerators. The conference programme includes tutorials on selected topics, invited and selected talks, as well as poster sessions.
The scientific programme is complemented by an industry exhibition featuring product manufacturers and service providers as well as social events to encourage informal knowledge exchange. We are delighted to announce that this Special Issue of Instruments will allow conference delegates to publish an expanded version of their conference proceedings in a peer-reviewed journal with global reach and impact.

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. Instruments is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1400 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.
