AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the challenges of selecting the best astrophysical journal for publishing research. Participants note limited options and the prevalence of publication fees. There is a suggestion to use Arxiv for initial submissions, highlighting its accessibility despite requiring introducers for some journals. The General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology journal is mentioned as a potential fit, but difficulties in contributing are noted. The ongoing review process in the International Journal of Theoretical Physics and Reports on Progress in Physics raises concerns about acceptance timelines.

Which astrophysical journal is the best?

I don't find many choices. Only there are several similar international journals...
Some even need charge for publishing.

Do you have any recommendation?
 
Astronomy news on Phys.org
Best for subscribing? Or best for article submission? For the latter, keep in mind that as a general tendency there is a tradeoff between the selectivity of a journal and its turnaround time for a submitted article.
 
I'd suggest starting with Arxiv if you are looking for a start in getting 'published'.

To publish papers in the Arxiv those journals need introducers. The General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology journal maybe is suitable for my paper, but I can't find any way to contribute to the journal. This is also because the problem----This journal is Arxiv's.

Now my paper is still refereeing by International journal of theoretical journal and the Reports on progress in physics, the two journals seem not suitable for my paper, I can't sure that whether my paper can be accepted. They have reviewed my paper 2-3 monthes, still there is no decision.

Now that they have shared their findings with the larger community someone else might find an explanation - or maybe it was actually made by life.
TL;DR Summary: In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation. In case of failure to detect alien signals, it will further expand the radius of the so-called silence (or rather, radio silence) of the Universe. Is there any sense in this or is blissful ignorance better? In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation.
