Guaranteed publication in three weeks!
For authors wishing to have their research published in European Journal
of Mass Spectrometry in the fastest possible time, we are able to offer
guaranteed publication of Letters within three weeks, subject of course
to satisfactory review. Reviewers of Letters are typically drawn from
the Editorial Advisory Board.
Letters
Letters are less than 2500 words; each figure or scheme (or part of
a composite) counts as 100 words. So a Letter with three figures and
two schemes can be no more than 2000 words.
Letters are reports of original research, the conclusions of which represent a significant advance in understanding of an important issue and carry major implication for mass spectrometry as a discipline. Letters have an Abstract, which is a summary designed both to reach readers outside of the specific area of mass spectrometry in question and to convey the main findings of the research.

Terms of guarantee
Manuscripts must be submitted online at http://www.impublications.com/eauthors/
and identified as a “Letter” in the Journal Section in Step
One of the submission process.
Authors must indicate in the Comments for the Editor Section in Step
One of the submission process that they wish to take advantage of the three week guarantee.
The Letter must be suitable for publication with no more than minor
amendments. Authors are expected to submit revised manuscripts within 48 hours
of receiving the referees reports.
EJMS considers publication online as the primary date of publication,
and so the Guarantee relates to publication online as a Just-Published
Paper (JPP). Therefore the author accepts that the initial publication will
be in a form before copy editing and typestting. This version will be replaced
with the copy-edited and typeset version once corrected proofs have been received
from the author.
In the unlikely event that we are unable to publish your paper (subject to
the terms above) within three weeks, we will give you a free year’s subscription
to EJMS.
