Scope of the Journal Physics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors will be devoted to the application of chemistry and physics to studies of the Earth’s crust, mantle and core and to the interiors of the planets. It is hoped that it will attract papers of high originality and, with an international coverage, contribute to the sound development of this well-established field of the Earth and Space Sciences. Types of contributions to be published are: (1) research papers; (2) reviews; (3) short communications, preferably in the Letter Section (see Note to Contributors on the back inside cover); (4) discussions; (5) book reviews; and (6) announcements.
Keywords The authors are kindly requested to supply 4–6 keywords of their choice that can be used for indexing/abstracting purposes. Letter Section The Letter Section is entirely devoted to short manuscripts describing preliminary results, suggestions for new applications of analytical methods, new theories, etc. Communications intended for this PEPI Letter Section should not exceed six printed pages and should be selfcontained. The manuscripts received will be published not later than three months after their final acceptance. Manuscripts should contain a brief summary of approx. 50 words. In order to achieve rapid publication, no proofs will be sent to the authors. Manuscripts should therefore be prepared with the greatest possible care.

Submission of electronic text In order to publish the paper as quickly as possible after acceptance authors must submit the final text also on a diskette, CD-ROM or Zipdisk. Similar to the requirements for manuscripts submission, main text, list of references, tables and figure captions should be stored in separate text files with clearly identifiable file names. The format of these files depends on the wordprocessor used. It is essential that the name and version of the wordprocessing program, type of computer on which the text was prepared, and format of the text files are clearly indicated. Authors must ensure that the disk version and the hardcopy are identical. Discrepancies can lead to proofs of the wrong version being made. Submission of an article is understood to imply that the article is original and unpublished and is not being considered for publication elsewhere. Upon acceptance of an article by the journal, the author(s) resident in the USA will be asked to transfer the copyright of the article to the Publisher. This transfer will ensure the widest possible dissemination of information under the US Copyright Law.
