Proposals for review papers are encouraged and will be considered by the Editor on an individual basis. Four copies of submissions and an abstract (not exceeding 400 words) should be sent. The abstract should be a summary not an introduction. Papers accepted become the copyright of the Journal unless specifically agreed otherwise. Authors are responsible for obtaining any necessary permissions. English is the official language of the journal. Editorial assistance will be provided to authors whose native language is not English. Send all manuscripts to: Dr. Gay E. Canough phone/fax= 607 785 6499 radio call sign: KB2OXA e-mail(Intemet): CANOUGH@BINGVAXA.CC.B1NGHAMTON.EDU mailing address: Space Power c/o ETM Solar Works, Inc., POBox67, Endicott NY 13761 Papers should be of general and lasting interest and written so as to make them accessible to technically educated professionals who may not be familiar with the specific area discussed in the paper. Letters and notes are used to air particular points and concepts when a lengthy paper is not required. Comments allow workers in the field to respond to, elucidate and expand particularly interesting points in previously published papers. Editorial and opinion pieces of approximately one journal page in length are published if they are well argued and pertinent to the content of the journal. Topical books, journals, proceedings and meetings are reviewed when considered to be of high standard. A standard journal article format, including summary, introduction, discussion, conclusion, acknowledgments and references is strongly encouraged. If possible, include the names and addresses of 3 people with the technical expertise to review your paper. Send papers on 8.5" x 11" or A4 sized paper. They should be typewritten, double spaced with 1" margins. Papers may also be submitted by electronic mail. References: Use the following format for references: Journals: ref number in square brackets, last name, first initials, article title in quotes, journal title in italics, Vol. #, No. #, year, pp. #begm-#end. As an example: [1] Brookner, E “A Review of Array Radars”, Microwave Journal, Vol. 24 No. 10, 1981, pp. 29-35. Books: ref number in square brackets, last name, first initials, chapter or section title (if any) in quotes, book title in italics, edition, Vol. #, publisher, location of publisher, year pp. #begin-#end. Reports: ref number in square brackets, last name, first initials, report title in quotes, institution from which it originated, report number (if any), city, state, country, date Transactions/proceedings: ref number in square brackets, last name, first initials, article title in quotes, proceedings title in italics, Vol. #, name of organization, location, year, pp. #begin-#end. Illustrations: Line drawings must be clear and sharp. Use black ink on white paper. Lettering on figures should be at least 14 point (0.15" or 4 mm.). The number of each figure and your name should be written in the margin of the figure. Figure captions should be on a separate sheet. Photos may be black and white or color, however, we cannot currently publish in color without much added expense. Tables: Limit the width to 5" (—13 cm) Symbols and units: Use the international standard units. If you need to know what these are, see NAS 10001, NASA SP-7012, ASTM E 380-76 or IEEE Std. 322 1971. The final version of a paper should be submitted electronically, by e-mail or on disk. Disk format can be IBM or Mac, 3.5" or 5.25", and the format of most word processors is acceptable. Always include a text-only version along with the word processor file type. If you would like to make the final format as close to the journal format as possible, we will send you the format rules. Doing this will speed along the publication. If you have no means of creating an electronic version, a paper copy will be accepted.
