Procedure for Submitting Summaries

Authors must conform to the following requirements:

1. Prepare a single Adobe Acrobat file consisting of an informative two to four page summary describing results appropriate for 12-minute oral or a poster presentation. The summary must include sufficient detail about the work to permit a meaningful technical review. In the summary, clearly indicate (a) the purpose of your work, (b) significant new results with supporting technical material, and (c) how your work advances the state of the art. Show key references to other related work. The summary must be no less than two and no more than four pages in length, including figures and tables. All figures and tables must be large enough to be clearly read. Note that this is more than an abstract, but do not exceed four pages.

2. Prepare your summary in single-column format, using 11 point or greater font size, formatted for either U.S. Standard (8.5 x 11 inch) or A4 (21 x 29.7 cm) page layout, with 1 inch (2.5 cm) margins on all four sides. The use of the IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science standard two-column format is also allowed.

3. Obtain all corporate, sponsor, and government approvals and releases necessary for presenting your paper at an open attendance international meeting.

4. Summary submission is electronic only, through www.radecs2018.org. The submission process consists of entering the paper title, author(s) and affiliation(s), and an abstract no longer than 35 words. Authors are prompted to state their preference for presentation (oral, poster, or data workshop poster) and for session. The final category of all papers will be determined by the Technical Program Committee, which is responsible for selecting final papers from initial submissions.

Papers accepted for oral or poster presentation at the technical program will be eligible for publication in a special issue of the IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science based upon papers from the Conference. Selection for this issue will be based on a separate submission of a complete paper. These papers will be subject to the standard full peer review given to all papers submitted to the IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science. Further information will be sent to prospective authors upon acceptance of their RADECS summary.
