Special Issue: ISPC25

We are pleased to announce a special issue of Plasma Chemistry and Plasma Processing (PCPP) on “Papers by Plenary and Invited Lecturers at the 25th International Symposium on Plasma Chemistry (ISPC 25), 21–26 May 2023, Kyoto, Japan”.

ISPC 25 was originally planned for 23-28 May, 2021. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, ISPC 25 has been postponed two times. At last, we expect ISPC 25 to take place successfully in Kyoto, Japan this year.

A special issue in PCPP is published regularly after every ISPC, highlighting a collection of plenary and invited lectures. Submission of plenary and invited papers is not mandatory; however, as always, the conference Chair strongly recommends the submission of a manuscript as an important milestone in the activity of ISPC, presenting the most recent progress of plasma chemistry research.

The title of the manuscript and the list of authors can be modified slightly from the original contribution to ISPC 25 within the same scope of your plenary/invited lecture. The paper is submitted via the PCPP submission system and evaluated by a peer-review process upon submission. The submission deadline is set to the 1st of June 2023, shortly after ISPC 25: the special issue will be published without significant delay from the symposium. All papers will be published online shortly after acceptance.

If you have any questions about the special issue, please contact Tomohiro Nozaki (Chief Guest Editor) via nozaki.t.ab@m.titech.ac.jp .

Best regards and we are looking forward to your contribution.

Tomohiro Nozaki, Takayuki Watanabe, Satoshi Hamaguchi
