Copyright and Licensing

Copyright and Licensing Policy

The International Journal of Physics Research and Applications (IJPRA) is committed to upholding the principles of open-access publishing, ensuring that research in physics and its applications is freely accessible to a global audience. To support knowledge dissemination, IJPRA follows a licensing policy that safeguards author rights while allowing unrestricted sharing and distribution.

Copyright Ownership

Authors publishing in IJPRA retain full copyright ownership of their work. This ensures that researchers have full control over their intellectual property and can:

  • Distribute and share their work without restrictions.
  • Reuse and modify their content for future research projects.
  • Deposit their research in institutional repositories, preprint servers, and personal websites.
  • License their work for educational or non-commercial use while ensuring proper citation.

Authors grant IJPRA a non-exclusive license to distribute and archive their research, increasing its visibility and discoverability.
