Proceedings
Authors of accepted abstracts to SCES'07 are invited to submit a manuscript to be published in a special (but consecutively numbered) issue of Physica B. All papers will be subject to standard refereeing procedures. Each registered participant is entitled to submit one paper for publication. Full participants will receive a CD copy of the Proceedings. A hard copy may be purchased separately for 95US$.
- We will start accepting submissions on March 1st, 2007.
- The deadline for submission of manuscripts is April 1st, 2007.
The length of each paper must not exceed 2 printed pages for contributed poster/oral contributions, and 4 pages for invited oral contributions. Contributions should reflect the work presented during the conference, they should be original and not being considered for publication elsewhere. Papers which were not presented in the conference, either in oral or poster form, will not be published in the proceedings. The presence of the competent author in the poster session will be confirmed by the chairperson(s) of the session.
The corresponding author of each contribution will be provided with either a PDF file of the final article or free offprints (Elsevier will contact the authors to make that choice). Additional reprints may be ordered from the publisher at the standard rate.
Submission of the manuscripts and all the correspondence thereafter should be made electronically through the conference website. The submitted manuscripts are not allowed to be revised after the deadline for submission until results from the reviews have been communicated by the publication committee.
Questions on the proceedings should be e-mailed to scespubs@phys.lsu.edu

Instructions for Paper Preparation
Manuscripts should be submitted in either LaTeX (recommended) or MS Word, and be prepared according the guidelines, styles and templates provided by Elsevier:
Manuscript Guidelines: Instructions_SCES07.pdf
LaTeX: elsart.cls, elsart5p.cls, Example_Latex.tex, Example_Latex.pdf
MS Word: Example_Word
Paper Submission Guidelines:
- Elsevier has provided conference styles and templates for submissions using LaTeX or MS Word. You must use one of these to ensure that the length of the submitted manuscript is within the stated limits. Paper submissions in MS Word should use the example and fill in the text etc. as given in the template. Do not change format settings like font size, page layout, etc.
- Authors should follow the file naming convention indicated in the paper-upload area of the conference website. The maximum length is 2 pages for a contributed poster or oral presentation, and 4 pages for an invited talk. We will not review a manuscript if the length is more than the specified one.
- After your manuscript has been reviewed, please respond to the referee's comments and, if necessary, resubmit using the same online procedure. The status of your manuscript can be seen also online by accessing the participant’s area of the website. The final version of the article must be within the prescribed length limits.
- Notes on Submitted Figures:
- If you are submitting your manuscript as a LaTeX file that includes the figures directly with the \includegraphics[…]{…} command, these figures must be standard-conforming ASCII encapsulated postscript (EPS) files. Please ensure that the names of uploaded files match those used in the manuscript.
- If you rename the files before uploading, please remember to change the names inside the LaTeX manuscript if relevant.
- If you are submitting the manuscript as a Word file, please import the figures into the file (at the very end of it) so that they will be available on the PDF file that will be sent out to the referees for reviewing. Only TIFF-files or (Encapsulated) PS-files are accepted. Please convert all figures into TIFF, PS or EPS files and upload them separately as well.
- Color figures will be published free of charge on line. In case an author wants color figures in the printed version, he will be charged. The author should let the publisher know and a ‘color letter’ will be sent to him for this purpose.
