IUCr 1997 Report - Journal of Synchrotron Radiation

This year saw the fifth anniversary of JSR. A total of 51 articles were published in 1997 (45 in 1996) and the total number of pages increased to 405 (326 in 1996). The median publication time of 2.9 months was unchanged, and represents the best performance of all of the IUCr journals. This year also saw the first entry of JSR into the citation ranking tables; on impact factor JSR was third out of 37 journals covering instruments and instrumentation, eighth out of 46 covering optics and eighteenth out of 60 covering applied physics. We acknowledge here then the excellent papers submitted by authors, and thank the referees who have served the journal so well.

The biggest event of all in the year was SRI'97, and associated with it the Congress Proceedings. A total of approximately 1100 journal pages are now in proof for SRI'97. The refereeing was carried out to the standards expected of all JSR papers and these will be appearing in an excellent, bumper, issue of JSR in 1998.
