Only contributions presented at the hybrid SOFT2022 in the form of talk or poster will be considered for publication.
Proceedings of SOFT 2022 will be published in hybrid journal Fusion Engineering and Design. In addition, we expect to receive some contributions associated with the HORIZON Europe funding. Due to publication restrictions imposed by HORIZON Europe, we offer to the participants the additional option of publishing selected papers in a fully open access journal.
Therefore, we invite the SOFT-2022 participants wishing to publish their work in a fully open access journal to submit their papers to the MDPI Journal of Nuclear Engineering.
The participants opting for full Open Access either in the Fusion Engineering and Design or in the MDPI Journal of Nuclear Engineering should cover all related Open Access expenses, since the Registration Fee does not cover those.
Submission instructions for Fusion Engineering and Design and MDPI Journal of Nuclear Engineering follow.

- The paper submission deadline for the Fusion Engineering and Design journal has been extended to 31st October 2022.
