Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the process of getting a research paper published, with a focus on challenges, requirements, and considerations in the context of particle physics and academic publishing.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation, Debate/contested, Meta-discussion

Main Points Raised

  • One participant suggests that improving English proficiency is essential for publication, questioning the intended level of publication.
  • Another participant emphasizes the broad nature of the original question and mentions that only Quantum theory is typically accepted in particle physics, highlighting the necessity of a sponsor.
  • A different viewpoint discusses the limitations imposed by current publishing practices, referencing Lee Smolin's critiques regarding constraints on progress in the field.
  • One participant proposes that submitting the paper to a journal is necessary, indicating that the quality of the content will influence the likelihood of publication and invites further elaboration on the question.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants express differing views on the requirements and challenges of publishing research papers, indicating that multiple competing perspectives remain without a consensus on the best approach.

Contextual Notes

Some limitations include the broadness of the initial question, the dependence on specific journal requirements, and the unresolved nature of the challenges discussed regarding the publishing system.

If you're a native English speaker, improve your English first! At what level are you planning on publishing?

any level, but as big as possible.
 
Your question is far to broad, but to deal only with particle physics basics, only Quantum theory is allowed and usually a sponsor is required. The pitfalls of the current system have been raised many times by professionals, the latest being Lee Smolin in the closing chapters of The Trouble with Physics.
Details of layout etc can be found on the websites of journals, usually the 'online' journals are easier to use they allow full colour and are not so restrictive spacewise, but you must still comply with the 'accepted limits' that according to Smolin and many others; are now placing unjustifiable limits on progress.
 
Submit it to a journal, if it's any good then there's a chance it could get published.

It depends what the content is. Would you like to elaborate on your question?
