Cambridge University Press and Chinese Laser Press to launch new open access journal

An international partnership will see the launch of a new journal focusing on high power laser science and engineering.

The new journal, High Power Laser Science and Engineering (HPLaser), will be an international peer-reviewed journal dedicated to strengthening the exchange of information in this area.

Katy Christomanou, Publishing Director for Science, Technology and Mathematics, at Cambridge Journals, said: 'There have been great advances in this field over recent years, and Chinese researchers have been an integral part of the international collaborations behind that progress. It is fitting that the first journal dedicated to the science and engineering of high power lasers is the product of an international partnership, and is an open access publication, making it freely available to all.'

High Power Laser Science and Engineering will be hosted on Cambridge’s industry leading platform, Cambridge Journals Online (CJO), and Chinese Laser Press’s journal online platform.
