About the Journal
The Journal of Advanced Instrumentation in Science (JAIS) is a peer-reviewed open access journal specialized in advanced instrumentation both for experimental research in basic science and for technological developments and applications in different environmental and bioengineering fields. JAIS aims to span over a large variety of items, from the new generation of gas and silicon detectors for particle and astroparticle physics to innovative sensors for environmental monitoring and medical diagnostics, also with laser-driven technologies. Since the important role in the instrumentation development is related to the readout electronics and data processing, JAIS also intends to offer its platform to review frontier achievements in the area of microelectronics and machine learning algorithms. The goal is to provide the community of physicists and engineers involved in the above-mentioned fields with a platform to publish informative summaries of important findings.
For readers, JAIS offers a single, authoritative source where instrument builders and users across physics, engineering, chemistry, biology, and computer science can discover cross-cutting principles and unexpected solutions. A technique first developed for X-ray astronomy might revolutionize biomedical imaging. A noise-reduction algorithm from LHC tracking could transform autonomous vehicle LIDAR. You will find those connections here.
For authors, JAIS provides rigorous, constructive peer review focused on technical depth and reproducibility. We welcome:
• Original research on novel instrument design, characterization, and validation.
• Open-source hardware and software papers, including detailed bill-of-materials and CAD files.
• Benchmarking and intercomparison studies (metrology for AI, detector calibration).
• Replication studies and negative results that inform the community.
The JAIS Editorial Board comprises academics from institutions all over the world. Collaboration of each member of the Editorial Board increases the quality of the peer review process, which supports our vision through making sure that every submitted manuscript is reviewed under high ethical standards and following through with fair decisions on publication.
The journal is published by Andromeda Publishing and Academic Services, Ltd., London, UK. Andromeda ensures that every submitted manuscript will have perfect editorial and production services. Accordingly, when a manuscript is submitted, it passes through many different stages handled by Andromeda's editorial, production, and technological teams.
To maintain the quality of our stages, Article Processing Charges will be charged for every accepted manuscript to cover the costs of the different stages from submission to publication. The Article Processing Charges of ‘‘300 GBP’’ are clearly displayed in the submission preparation checklist of the journal and are the only fees that should be charged per article (i.e., there are no submission fees or any other fees).
