ANNOUNCEMENT — phasing in of article publication charges

Acta Physica Polonica A is introducing article publication charges (APCs) at a minimum level that will allow us to continue to maintain the journal for the community. The detailed regulations and the license agreement for this change are publicly available and apply legally.

APC applies for published manuscripts submitted from 3 September 2025 and is 400 Euros/1600 PLN per paper not longer than 10 printed pages and 25 Euros/100 PLN per each additional page. It is possible to waive the publication charge upon request for manuscripts submitted during the transition period, i.e., from September 3, 2025, till December 31, 2025, but the manuscript will be then processed at a lower priority and its publication may be delayed by up to three months.

How submissions proceed:

1. the paper at the time of submission should be prepared according to the Guide for Authors;
2. during submission, an email declaration of the corresponding author is required that the submitted article is not under consideration in any other journal and that the authors are aware of the obligation to pay APC within the timeframe;
3. once the paper is accepted please send us the completed license agreement;
4. payment details and amount will be sent to the corresponding author after acceptance of the paper and receipt of the publication and license agreement.
