CEDAR email: Clarification on the publication of white papers: Frontiers and BAAS

[Joe Borovsky]

When submitting white papers to the U.S. Solar and Space Physics (Heliophysics) Decadal Survey, there are two options for the publication of the white paper. You may choose both options.

1. The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine are collaborating with the Bulletin of the American Astronomical Society (BAAS) to publish all of the white papers in one collection, and this is automatic when you submit your white paper unless you choose to opt out. This publication will be citable, open access, not refereed, and with no publication fee. https://nas.edu/ssphdecadal and https://baas.aas.org/. As a reminder, submission deadline is midnight, Eastern time, September 7.

2. Publication of the material in the white paper (formatted into a scientific paper) in the special issue of Frontiers “The Future of Space Physics 2022”
https://www.frontiersin.org/research-topics/39204/
This publication will be citable, open access, refereed, and with a publication fee. Frontiers paper formats include Perspectives, Original Research, Opinions, Methods, and Reviews. If the white paper is submitted to BAAS, the BAAS publication must be cited in the Frontiers paper. The nominal submission deadline for Frontiers is October 7, 2022, but there is certain to be an extension.

Note that the Frontiers special issue (international) is open to articles that were not submitted as a white paper to the U.S. National Academy of Sciences.
