Submission of a manuscript indicates a tacit understanding that the paper is not actively under consideration for publication elsewhere and that the copyright will be transferred to the Editor. The Copyright Transfer form is available at our WWW site.

1. A covering letter, signed by one of the authors, requesting publication should accompany the paper.
2. Manuscript should be sent to the Editor of Acta Physica Polonica B. LaTeX (preferably) or TeX text files and EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) figures should be e-mailed to

   acta.phys.pol.b@uj.edu.pl

   One file packed by the tar-gz or zip utility is highly recommended. Authors are encouraged to use the Acta Physica Polonica B LaTeX style.

3. The author's name, initials, affiliation, and address should be given.
4. The manuscript should be as concise as possible with an abstract not exceeding 200 words. Just below the abstract the PACS Index numbers should be given.
5. The manuscripts, including the abstract, references, and captions neatly typed in double spacing, on a good quality paper with ample margins are also accepted. Poor reproductions are unacceptable as originals. Unclear or excessive handwritten insertions are not acceptable.
6. One should avoid detailed derivations of mathematical expressions and formulae. It is generally sufficient to indicate the method of treatment and the final results.
7. Figures must be of a quality good enough for printing. In general, scanned figures and pictures copied straight from the computer screen are not acceptable. Figures can be printed in colour when they are judged by the Editors to be essential to the presentation. The publisher and the author will each bear part of the extra costs involved.
8. References should conform to the conventions used in Acta Physica Polonica B. Abbreviations should follow conventions of Physics Abstracts (PA). Comments or remarks should be made in footnotes rather than in references.
9. A Guide to Authors of Papers in Acta Physica Polonica B can be found at our WWW site (For Authors section).
