Planetary Research is devoted to publishing original scientific research in the field of planetary science. We welcome work that is based on analyses of data derived from spacecraft and Earth-based observatories, laboratory measurements of extraterrestrial materials, theoretical and numerical modeling of planetary phenomena, and analyses of terrestrial analog sites and materials. Studies about solar and stellar phenomena that impact planetary objects are welcome, as are studies in the field of astrobiology when they have consequences for the interpretation of planetary data. Manuscripts that focus on studies of Earth are welcome, but only when they are presented in a comparative planetology context. The journal does not publish papers exclusively focused on reporting astronomical observations of exoplanets or exoplanetary systems, but it does welcome studies that draw on exoplanetary data to address questions in planetary science, as well as theoretical works that yield testable observational predictions. Original research can be presented in the form of research articles or short letters, and additional article types are provided for reviews, the description of planetary missions and instrumentation, numerical codes, and datasets. Commentaries that express a point of view on a topic, or that discuss issues that may be of interest to the readers of the journal, are also welcome.
Planetary Research is a community-led diamond open access journal that publishes original peer-reviewed scientific work in the broad field of planetary science. All articles are free to access without subscription, and authors pay no fees. Authors retain the copyright to their work which can be used by others under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license (CC BY 4.0).
