The journal *ANRI* (Instrumentation and News of Radiation Measurements) publishes scientific articles on topical issues in radiation monitoring and radiation safety, as well as information on significant developments in this field. The editorial board and reviewers are committed to upholding standards of scientific and publication ethics. This includes the mandatory peer review of all submitted articles by independent experts or members of the editorial board, transparent communication between the editorial office and authors, the assignment of a DOI to every publication, and open access to abstracts and selected articles.
The editorial office adheres to the following core principles:
- Peer review process. All articles published in the “Scientific Articles” section of the journal undergo mandatory peer review by members of the editorial board or independent experts. All manuscripts go through the necessary preparation procedures prior to publication.
- Transparency. The journal’s website provides open access to information regarding the publisher, the editor-in-chief, and the editorial board. It also includes the journal’s editorial policy, publication ethics, guidelines for the submission, review, and publication of scientific articles, as well as abstracts and keywords (in both Russian and English) for all published scientific articles. Full texts of selected articles (at the discretion of the editorial board and with the authors’ consent) are also available, along with other information in accordance with Russian and international standards for transparency in academic publishing.
- No fees are charged for the editorial processing or publication of articles.
- Ethical criteria for authorship. An author must be an individual who has made a significant contribution to the creation of the work. Copyright is respected in accordance with the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and other relevant legal regulations.
- Engagement with the professional community.
- The journal’s editorial team strives to engage with professional scientific communities—primarily those within the Rosatom State Corporation—to ensure the high quality of its scientific publications.
- Prevention of ethical misconduct. The editorial board, reviewers, and other participants in the publication process are committed to preventing unethical behavior, as well as addressing and rectifying any violations of the journal’s ethical principles, including conflicts of interest among those involved in the publication process.
