投中Joule之经典武功秘籍

Energist 能源学人 2021-12-24

1、Joule的定位:和Cell比肩,做成能源领域的Cell

上周四,Joule主编Philip Earis在访问中山大学和华南理工大学的会议上展示了James Prescott Joule曾说的这句话“My object has been, first to discover correct principles and then to suggest their practical development”,由此我们可以清晰地看到Joule的发展方向。其中“practical development”我认为最能体现Joule的特色。所以,投文章除了一些非人力因素外,我们一定要深度把握期刊对文章内容的要求,可以这样形象地说“萝卜白菜各有所爱”。

James Prescott Joule

(焦耳定律的发现、热功当量的测定、焦耳-汤姆孙效应)

 

2、Joule需要什么 / What does Joule require?

  • Important conceptual advances (概念新不新?)

  • Research with implications across scales

  • Research that withstands scrutiny

  • Focus on the scientific issues and what will help improve the study

  • Find the constructive points and identify underlying issues (Peer review should be helpful and constructive)

  • If you disagree the specific suggestions or overall decision (Discuss the editor) (不服审稿结果?没关系,和主编掰叨掰叨)

  • When resubmitting, provide point-by-point responses to reviewer’s comments (Make sure reviewer feedback makes it into the actual manuscript, not just the point-by-point response) (Joule之审稿态度没的说,棒极了!先Call一下)

 

3、拿到你的稿件后,主编在想啥?/ Editor Considerations

  • Is the research scientifically correct, robust and will stand up the scrutiny?

  • Is the science communicated clearly, in a way that it can be easily understood?(所以说文章写作功底很重要。写作很考验一个人的逻辑思维和表达能力)

  • Does the manuscript present new insights that will genuinely add to the existing literature?

  • Is the research of broad interest? (Will people want to read this?) 被拒稿件后,经常看到的一个审稿评论是“No novelty”。毫无疑问,主编更知道你的文章会不会引起广泛的关注。

  • Will the paper enhance the journal if published? (Is it something the research community will care about and want to cite?) (众人是否会爱你的文章)

  • Will I easily be able to get referees to report on the manuscript? (别让主编找了一圈,没人愿意看咱的文章。这属于两种极端情况,一是全世界没人能看懂你写的那是啥;二是你懂的

 

4、Cover letter怎么写?

  • Your opportunity to sell you research to weary editors: Explain why work is important?

  • Put recent literature in context- what does this work build on? (说说工作的基础是啥。不要告诉我是苹果砸到了脑袋上,擦出了火花后想出来的。我觉得即使秤砣咋了脑袋也不会冒出Good idea,Haha......

  • Explain what has motivated submission to this journal? (是什么让你冲动的去投Joule?不要告诉我是因为爱,爱,爱)

  • If you feel the work will attract many citations say so (with some justification)? (说说你的工作凭啥能让人们都“待见”,众人之爱,乃是主编之深爱)

  • Don’t be afraid to state your own “value judgement” - if you feel this is the best research from your lab in eg. past 2 years, consider mentioning this. (自我审美一下,可以“不要脸”的多说几句)

 

5、Joule的7大文章分类:

  • Electrochemical Storage & Conversion

  • Biological and Bio-inspired

  • Heating and Cooling

  • Policy and Analysis

  • Solar Cells

  • Catalysis

  • MOFs

 

6、Joule每期Article Types数量

  • Research articles 6-9篇

  • Review 1-2

  • Previews 3-4

  • Perspectives 2-3

  • Future energy 1-2

  • Commentaries 1-2

 

7、审稿流程


其实说了这么多,投稿过程和相亲差不多:

1、自身条件得足够好,没钱你也得有张“蔡徐坤”的脸(蔡徐坤是谁?天啊,这你都不知道,暴露年龄了吧);

2、你和姑娘“WB看绿豆”,对上第一眼很重要(能否让主编在人群中多看你一眼);

3、姑娘要是觉得第一印象不错,把你介绍给她周边的人,闺蜜、蓝颜知己、老爸老妈、七大姑八大姨、舅舅舅妈.......要是这帮人都说一个字“!!!”,那八成有戏。(要是有所有人都说中,只有一个人否定的话,此人极可能是“前!男!友!”,继续搬砖啦)。
