Nuclear Science and Engineering is the oldest peer-reviewed journal in its field. Our aim now is the same as when we started publication in 1956, which is to provide the leading source of information on fundamental and applied research in all scientific areas related to the peaceful use of nuclear energy for the benefit of all. We publish technical papers, technical notes, critical reviews, rapid communications, book reviews, and letters to the editor.Technical papers present archival, original contributions to the field of knowledge.Technical notes describe preliminary results or limited extensions of previously reported work.Critical reviews combine a focused topical overview with an extensive literature review to critically evaluate the state-of-the-art, but do not necessarily add new knowledge to the field.Rapid communications provide speedy publication, after accelerated review and processing, of innovative work of high and immediate interest to the journal readership.Book reviews give an overview of a recently published book, including a brief summary and statement of value to the community.Letters to the editor provide an expeditious medium for comments on editorial policies and for discussions on the content of other contributions.We welcome submissions that explore the following topics:Fundamental physics related to nuclear systemsTheoretical physicsRadiation physicsReactor physicsNuclear criticalityNuclear data and reactionsNeutron transportReactor core analysis and modelingUncertainty analysis and quantificationReactor and fuel performance analysisTransient analysisFluid dynamics/multiphase flowHeat transferFission product yieldsWaste product analysisDepletion/burnup of nuclear fuelsOnce your article has been assessed for suitability by the editor, it will be single-blind peer reviewed by expert referees.

核科學(xué)與工程是該領(lǐng)域最古老的同行評(píng)審期刊。我們現(xiàn)在的目標(biāo)與1956年開始出版時(shí)的目標(biāo)相同，即為所有人的利益提供和平利用核能的所有科學(xué)領(lǐng)域的基礎(chǔ)和應(yīng)用研究的主要信息來源。我們出版技術(shù)論文、技術(shù)說明、評(píng)論、快速溝通、書評(píng)和致編輯的信件。技術(shù)論文存檔，對(duì)知識(shí)領(lǐng)域的原始貢獻(xiàn)。技術(shù)說明描述了先前報(bào)告工作的初步結(jié)果或有限擴(kuò)展。批判性評(píng)論將重點(diǎn)主題概述與廣泛的文獻(xiàn)綜述結(jié)合起來，以批判性地評(píng)估最先進(jìn)的技術(shù)，但不一定為該領(lǐng)域增加新的知識(shí)。快速通訊在加速審查和處理后，為雜志讀者提供了對(duì)其感興趣的創(chuàng)新工作的快速出版。書評(píng)概述了最近出版的一本書，包括對(duì)社區(qū)的簡(jiǎn)要總結(jié)和價(jià)值陳述。給編輯的信件為評(píng)論編輯政策和討論其他貢獻(xiàn)的內(nèi)容提供了一個(gè)快速的媒介。我們歡迎討論以下主題的提交：與核系統(tǒng)有關(guān)的基礎(chǔ)物理學(xué)理論物理學(xué)輻射物理學(xué)反應(yīng)堆物理核臨界性核數(shù)據(jù)和反應(yīng)中子輸運(yùn)反應(yīng)堆堆芯分析與建模不確定性分析與量化反應(yīng)堆和燃料性能分析瞬態(tài)分析流體動(dòng)力學(xué)/多相流傳熱裂變產(chǎn)物產(chǎn)量廢物分析核燃料消耗/燃燒一旦你的文章被編輯評(píng)估適合性，它將是由專家評(píng)審的單盲同行。
