Open Access Statement
Advancing Physics Research through Open Access
The International Journal of Physics Research and Applications (IJPRA) is committed to fostering free and unrestricted access to cutting-edge research in physics and its applications. Our mission is to promote the global dissemination of scientific discoveries without financial or institutional barriers, ensuring that groundbreaking research is available to all.
As an open-access journal, IJPRA provides immediate online access to all published articles, enabling researchers, academicians, students, and industry professionals to explore new advancements in the field of physics without limitations.
Open Access and Creative Commons Licensing
IJPRA follows an open-access publishing model under the Creative Commons Attribution License (CC BY 4.0). This allows:
- Unrestricted use: Readers can freely download, share, and build upon published research.
- Academic and industrial application: Research findings can be utilized in academic studies, experimental physics, and technological advancements.
- Author rights protection: Authors retain copyright while allowing widespread distribution of their work.
Why Open Access?
Publishing under an open-access model enhances the impact and reach of scientific research. Key benefits include:
- Wider Readership: Researchers, educators, and students worldwide can access IJPRA articles without restrictions.
- Higher Citation Rates: Studies show that open-access articles receive more citations and engagement.
- Accelerated Scientific Discovery: Free access to research speeds up innovation in physics and its applications.
- Cross-Disciplinary Impact: Open access facilitates collaborations across physics, engineering, and computational sciences.
Article Processing Charges and Funding Support
To sustain high-quality open-access publishing, IJPRA applies an Article Processing Charge (APC) for accepted manuscripts. These fees support peer review, editorial services, and digital preservation. However, we provide:
- APC Waivers and Discounts: Available for authors from developing countries and those with limited funding.
- Institutional and Grant-Based Support: Many universities and research institutions fund APCs.
- Transparent Pricing: Fair and clear fee structures ensure accessibility.
Indexing and Long-Term Digital Preservation
All published research is permanently preserved and indexed in leading academic databases, ensuring its long-term availability. Our indexing partners include:
- CrossRef – Assigns DOIs for article citation tracking.
- Portico – Ensures long-term digital archiving.
- DOAJ (Directory of Open Access Journals) – Enhances the discoverability of physics research.
- BASE (Bielefeld Academic Search Engine) – Indexes open-access scholarly content.
