Astronomy & Astrophysics Publication Guide
Evaluates manuscript fit, methodological rigor, and submission readiness for the European flagship journal Astronomy & Astrophysics (A&A).
Astronomy & Astrophysics Publication Guide assists astronomers and astrophysicists in preparing high-quality manuscripts targeting Astronomy & Astrophysics (A&A) published by EDP Sciences. It encodes the journal's rigorous standards for data reduction, error propagation, instrument descriptions, and CDS/VizieR data archiving. By providing pre-submission checklists, desk-reject diagnostics, and venue re-routing recommendations across alternative outlets like ApJ or MNRAS, this skill ensures manuscripts adhere to the required aa.cls LaTeX formatting, structured abstract conventions, and reproducibility expectations.
