They send in the editorial staff: one thoroughly read and signed by the author (co-authors) copy of article, the information about author(s), the meta-data in Russian and English (title, surname and the place of the work of the author, the mailing address of the organization, the e-mail address, the abstract, the keywords, the list of references), documents, indicated on the site.

An article can be accepted for examination only provided that it corresponds to the profile of the periodical and meets requirements to the author's originals of articles placed on a site of the periodical; it should be of open character. The presence of a restrictive signature stamp forms the basis for a material deviation. An article has to be original, not published earlier and not submitted to the publication in other editions.

An article is registered with the date of entering, the title, and the full name of the author(s), place of work of the author(s). The article is assigned a unique registration number. These details are entered into the database. The author is notified of the article registration.

The scientific articles, which entered into the editorial staff, are checked against the presence of borrowings from the open sources (plagiarism). Checking is carried out with the aid of the system “Antiplagiat.VUZ”. Further, the manuscript is sent to the member of the Editorial board in charge of this section, which evaluates research objectives, authenticity, and completeness of factual materials, structure of the article, logic of the construction, lingual-stylistic qualities.

Then all articles pass through reviewing Institute. Reviewers are notified that the manuscripts sent to them are a private property of authors and treat the data which are not a subject to disclosure. Reviewers are not allowed to make the copies of articles for their needs. Reviewing is carried out confidentially. All articles pass two forms of reviewing:

- Internal (reviewing manuscripts of articles by members of the Editorial Board);

- External (reviewing manuscripts of articles by leading experts in the relevant fields)

The reviewer has the right: to recommend the article to the publication; to recommend the article to the publication after modification taking into account remarks; not to recommend article to the publication.

If the reviewer recommends the article to the publication after modification remarks taking into account or does not recommend the article to the publication, the reasons of such decision must be indicated in the review. Reviews should meet the requirements established in the institution, where the reviewer works.

The final decision of the acceptability of the article for publication is made by the editorial board of the periodical after receiving the review on the article.

The article sent, by the author to editorial office after the elimination of remarks, is discussed in the general terms. The date of the new version of the article is registered. The date of the return of the modified article is considered to be the date of receipt.

If the article according to the recommendation of the reviewer has been considerably modified by the author, it is sent for re-reviewing to the same reviewer, who made critical remarks.

The editorial board reserves the right to reject articles in case of impossibility or unwillingness of the author to consider the wishes of reviewers. In case of a rejection of the article from the publication the author is sent a motivated refusal.

In case of two negative reviews of the manuscript or one negative review of its modified version the article is not accepted for publishing if it has already been published or is sent to other editions; the authors have not submit all necessary documents or the design of the text does not meet the requirements of the edition.

The originals of reviews are stored in the editorial board for three years from the day of the publication of articles and are provided in Advisory Councils of VAK by inquiries.

Manuscripts are printed, as a rule, as a sequence of their receipt in the editorial office. In exceptional cases, the editorial board has the right to change the sequence of the publication of articles. The editorial office reserves the right to make necessary amendments and abridgements in the manuscript.

The article has been assigned the DOI index after the publication.

The editorial office has the right to publish the letters of the readers containing an assessment of published manuscripts. If the editorial board does not share completely views of the author of the published manuscript, it has the right to make about it the interlinear note. The manuscripts printed as discussion, can be supplied with the corresponding interlinear note. The editorial office of the periodical is not responsible for doubtful data in articles. The author is responsible for the reliability of the data stated in article.
