After the indication of the place of work, the city is surely specified.

STRUCTURE OF THE MANUSCRIPT

Article has to be structured. The most widespread model of structure of scientific articles — IMRAD — an abbreviation from "introduction, materials and methods, results and discussion". At the end of article Conclusion follows. If article is devoted to a theoretical research, then the section Methods (Methods) is replaced with Theoretical Basis (Theoretical bases). Each part has to be allocated in the main text separately.

The manuscript of article has to contain the abstract (summary) and keywords. Articles without abstract (in the Russian and English languages) aren't considered. The paper shouldn't contain references and abbreviations. Volume is limited by 250-300 words. Are surely specified in the abstract: Purpose, Methods, Results, Conclusions (on 1–2 offers for each point). Keywords can be from 4 to 7, usually — 5–6 words. Terms phrases are considered as one keyword. It is desirable to avoid compound keywords. It isn't recommended to include the words which are contained in names of article in structure of keywords.

Introduction

Introduction has to define a key part of the problem, specify a research objective and represent his hypothesis and scientific approach, prove importance of a research. Introduction would typically include current state of the field of understanding (often it is a literature review)

Materials and Methods

The purpose of this part — to carry out assessment of reliability of the used methods and their influence on results. Here the plan and the sequence of process of researches, protocols of an experiment, the used materials, objects, the equipment, ready statistical data, the software, etc. are provided; and also technique of assessment of results. If the key moment in work is the experiment methodology, it is necessary to describe her processes in details

Results

This part represents results of a research in the accurate logical sequence, without interpretations of results. Exactly here tables, drawings and schedules are most often used. It is necessary to avoid duplication of data in tables and schedules (in case of their existence), it is only necessary to comment on such data from the point of view of trends or the most important points.

Discussion

Discussion has to be focused on interpretation of results of a research and other related materials. Emphasize new and important observations. Explain value of observed opinion for a research objective. Connect results with the offered hypothesis. Any unexpected results or observations; which took place, can be explained exactly here.

This part comes to the end with the detailed conclusion (allocated separately). It is necessary to generalize result and its value, to describe consequences and practical application of a research, to make possible recommendations.

Reductions and abbreviations have to be deciphered at their first use (in brackets in the text or under the text).

When writing article it is necessary to avoid personal pronouns, including scientific "we". Same concerns references: at references to own works it is worth avoiding " offers as shown in our work". First of all, this requirement of anonymity.

Conclusions

References

The list of references at the end of article is given in alphabetical order.

The list of references recommends at least 15 sources, and all of them should be cited in the text of the article. It is recommended to use modern literature sources (up to 5 years), foreign sources, in particular, indexed in the Scopus database. In the case when an English-language work is cited, it is recommended to refer to the original source.

Academic degree:

Doctor of Law

Doctor of Law Sciences (Dr. Sc.) - Higher scientific degree

PhD in Law

Candidate of Law Sciences (PhD)

Positions:

Professor

Reader

Professor, Department of Criminal Law (if applicable), Ensk State University (if applicable), Doctor of Law, City, Country

Ivan I. Ivanov,

Professor of the Criminal Law, Enskiy State University, Doctor of Law Sciences (Dr.Sc.), City, Country

When specifying contact information, we recommend to indicate contact e-mail. Contact details are required for possible scientific correspondence. The email address of the author is subject to publication unless the author makes a special indication to the contrary.

3. Title, abstract and keywords

The title should reflect the main content of the article, be capacious, concise. The title must be indicated in English and Russian.

Abstract - a brief description of the article - should reflect a description of the main topic, problem, object of research; the purpose of research, the results obtained and their value, to be informative, original and concise enough.

The volume of annotations in Russian should not exceed 100 - 200 words, the estimated volume of annotations in English is 100-250 words.

It is acceptable that the annotation in English be more detailed than in Russian: it is desirable that the English-language annotation provide for an introduction and conclusion (bullet points), the structure of the article, the purpose and main results of the study, and their scope are disclosed.

The main meaning of annotations in Russian and English should match.

Avoid using both the title and the annotation of introductory phrases, common words, for example:

in the title - "On some features ...", "On some problems ....", in the annotation - "The author explores a number of problems ...", "the article gives examples from practice ...", etc.

It is unacceptable to limit oneself to the scope of the study without any specifics: the annotation should make it possible to establish the main content of the article, determine its relevance and decide whether to refer to the main text.

Repetition of the title in the annotation is not allowed.

Keywords are individual terms (words or their combinations) that are key to understanding the content of the article. For example, these are the names of the studied legal institutions (“vindication claim”, “property right”, etc.), stable terms that are used by the legislator and law enforcement practice and which the author analyzes (“controlled foreign companies”), as well as commonly used in the doctrine, although not named in the legislative text (“shikana”).

The use of general terms is not recommended if the article addresses a specific aspect.

When formulating keywords, the following test can be used: having chosen an article for a keyword, the reader should find an analysis of the corresponding term in it, conclusions regarding its essence and application.

4. Design tables, figures, diagrams and formulas

Materials may contain the tables and black-and-white schemes executed in the editor of Word (for Windows). Application of objects of Word Art in schemes isn't recommended. All pictures, charts and schemes included in the text of article in the electronic version have to be submitted by also separate files in those formats in which they have been made (objects have to give the chance of editing). Each table and picture should be supplied with the serial number and the heading/signature duplicated into English. All columns in tables also have to be named.

Formulas have to be gathered in the editor of Microsoft Equation where their set is more correct; a set of formulas in MathType …Equation is also possible .

If you gather a formula, gather it completely, it isn't necessary to leave one symbol and an equal-sign text set, and then to pass in the formula editor.

It is desirable to gather simple lower case formulas from the keyboard, without using the formula editor.

 Illustrations (drawings, graphs, diagrams, computer printouts, diagrams, photographs) should be placed in the text immediately after the text of the article, where they are mentioned for the first time, or on the next page (as close as possible to the relevant parts of the text of the article). All illustrations must be referenced in the text. When referring, you must write the word "figure" and its number, for example: "in accordance with figure 2", etc. Illustrations, if necessary, may have a name and explanatory data (figure text). The word "Figure", its number and the name through a dash are placed after the explanatory data and placed in the center under the figure without a dot at the end.

5. Footnotes and References

The number of footnotes should be appropriate for the type of material presented.

In footnotes, if possible, only sources are indicated. When making footnotes on materials posted on the Internet, be sure to indicate the full address and date of reception (referring to the source).

When quoting an exact quote, the footnote indicates the specific page of the source that is being cited. When using paraphrase (retelling, expounding the thoughts of the quoted author in his own words), the footnote indicates the range of pages of the publication of the source.

Sources of publications of normative acts to which the author refers as a general rule are not indicated, or indicated at the beginning of the first reference to the text of the normative act. For example, “hereinafter, the texts of normative acts are used and (or) cited by ATP Consultant plus”.

If the source has a DOI number, it is recommended to indicate it at the end of the source in the References.

Retraction

Retraction of articles

1. General Provisions

1.1. Retraction (or retraction) is a withdrawal of a text (article) from publication, which indicates that the publication contains serious flaws or erroneous data that cannot be trusted.

1.2. The retraction procedure is carried out in order to prevent cases of:

• duplicate publications (when authors submit the same articles or data (without appropriate citations) in several publications);

• plagiarism;

• hiding conflicts of interest that could affect the interpretation of data or recommendations for their use.

1.3. Unreliable data and duplication can be the result of both delusion, unintentional error, and deliberate violations.

1.4. The revocation does not mean the deletion of the article from the website of the journal "Russian Journal of Biological Physics and Chemisrty", from bibliographic databases. The article remains in all of these resources with a clear notice of retraction and preservation of the digital object identifier [doi] or other permalink that locates it. This is necessary because the researchers may already have accessed and cited the paper, and therefore need to be warned about its retraction.

2. Reasons and grounds for retracting the article

2.1. The grounds for the retraction of the article are the violation of the ethical principles of the journal "Russian Journal of Biological Physics and Chemisrty".

2.2. The grounds for retracting the article are:

• detection of plagiarism in a publication;

If only a small part of the article (for example, a few sentences) is plagiarized, editors should consider whether it would be better for readers (and for the author of the work) if the article is amended with correct citations than a full retraction of the article.

• duplication of an article in several publications;

If a duplication of a publication is detected, the editors of the publications discuss the situation among themselves and can go one or two ways: 1. the text is withdrawn, simultaneously by all the publications that published the material received by them as a result of the fan distribution; 2. A consensus is reached on one version of the text that will not be withdrawn from publication (usually the earliest). In exceptional cases, when duplicating an article serves a specific purpose, you can not withdraw a repeated article, but make an edit, giving a footnote to the original source and the reason for duplication, for example, expanding the readership due to the specific thematic audience of the publication.

• detection of falsifications or fabrications (for example, manipulation of experimental data) or serious errors in the interpretation of the results;

When it is not possible to obtain conclusive evidence of the credibility of a publication (for example, if authors provide contradictory information; the institution where the authors work refuses to investigate alleged violations or make public the results of such investigations; if investigations were not conducted fairly or took an unreasonably long time), editors should publish doubts in regarding the text, rather than retract the publication. Such information should be submitted to the Council on Publication Ethics. If, over time, convincing confirmation of doubts is obtained, the article should be withdrawn from publication; if doubts are not confirmed, it is necessary to give an appropriate comment and inform the Council on the Ethics of Scientific Publications.

• incorrect composition of authors (there is no one who is worthy of being an author; persons who do not meet the authorship criteria are included);

• hidden conflict of interest (and other violations of publication ethics);

• republishing the article without the consent of the author.

2.3. The reasons for retracting the article are:

• the author's request to withdraw the article;

• presentation by the editor-in-chief of the journal "Russian Journal of Biological Physics and Chemisrty".

3. Procedure for withdrawing an article

3.1. The decision to withdraw the article is made by the Editorial Board of the journal "Russian Journal of Biological Physics and Chemisrty" on the proposal of the editor-in-chief, containing information about the existence of a reason for retracting the article specified in these Regulations.

After the indication of the place of work, the city is surely specified.

STRUCTURE OF THE MANUSCRIPT

Article has to be structured. The most widespread model of structure of scientific articles — IMRAD — an abbreviation from "introduction, materials and methods, results and discussion". At the end of article Conclusion follows. If article is devoted to a theoretical research, then the section Methods (Methods) is replaced with Theoretical Basis (Theoretical bases). Each part has to be allocated in the main text separately.

The manuscript of article has to contain the abstract (summary) and keywords. Articles without abstract (in the Russian and English languages) aren't considered. The paper shouldn't contain references and abbreviations. Volume is limited by 250-300 words. Are surely specified in the abstract: Purpose, Methods, Results, Conclusions (on 1–2 offers for each point). Keywords can be from 4 to 7, usually — 5–6 words. Terms phrases are considered as one keyword. It is desirable to avoid compound keywords. It isn't recommended to include the words which are contained in names of article in structure of keywords.

Introduction

Introduction has to define a key part of the problem, specify a research objective and represent his hypothesis and scientific approach, prove importance of a research. Introduction would typically include current state of the field of understanding (often it is a literature review)

Materials and Methods

The purpose of this part — to carry out assessment of reliability of the used methods and their influence on results. Here the plan and the sequence of process of researches, protocols of an experiment, the used materials, objects, the equipment, ready statistical data, the software, etc. are provided; and also technique of assessment of results. If the key moment in work is the experiment methodology, it is necessary to describe her processes in details

Results

This part represents results of a research in the accurate logical sequence, without interpretations of results. Exactly here tables, drawings and schedules are most often used. It is necessary to avoid duplication of data in tables and schedules (in case of their existence), it is only necessary to comment on such data from the point of view of trends or the most important points.

Discussion

Discussion has to be focused on interpretation of results of a research and other related materials. Emphasize new and important observations. Explain value of observed opinion for a research objective. Connect results with the offered hypothesis. Any unexpected results or observations; which took place, can be explained exactly here.

This part comes to the end with the detailed conclusion (allocated separately). It is necessary to generalize result and its value, to describe consequences and practical application of a research, to make possible recommendations.

Reductions and abbreviations have to be deciphered at their first use (in brackets in the text or under the text).

When writing article it is necessary to avoid personal pronouns, including scientific "we". Same concerns references: at references to own works it is worth avoiding " offers as shown in our work". First of all, this requirement of anonymity.

Conclusions

When specifying contact information, we recommend to indicate contact e-mail. Contact details are required for possible scientific correspondence. The email address of the author is subject to publication unless the author makes a special indication to the contrary.

3. Title, abstract and keywords

The title should reflect the main content of the article, be capacious, concise. The title must be indicated in English and Russian.

Abstract - a brief description of the article - should reflect a description of the main topic, problem, object of research; the purpose of research, the results obtained and their value, to be informative, original and concise enough.

The volume of annotations in Russian should not exceed 100 - 200 words, the estimated volume of annotations in English is 100-250 words.

It is acceptable that the annotation in English be more detailed than in Russian: it is desirable that the English-language annotation provide for an introduction and conclusion (bullet points), the structure of the article, the purpose and main results of the study, and their scope are disclosed.

The main meaning of annotations in Russian and English should match.

Avoid using both the title and the annotation of introductory phrases, common words, for example:

in the title - "On some features ...", "On some problems ....", in the annotation - "The author explores a number of problems ...", "the article gives examples from practice ...", etc.

It is unacceptable to limit oneself to the scope of the study without any specifics: the annotation should make it possible to establish the main content of the article, determine its relevance and decide whether to refer to the main text.

Repetition of the title in the annotation is not allowed.

Keywords are individual terms (words or their combinations) that are key to understanding the content of the article. For example, these are the names of the studied legal institutions (“vindication claim”, “property right”, etc.), stable terms that are used by the legislator and law enforcement practice and which the author analyzes (“controlled foreign companies”), as well as commonly used in the doctrine, although not named in the legislative text (“shikana”).

The use of general terms is not recommended if the article addresses a specific aspect.

When formulating keywords, the following test can be used: having chosen an article for a keyword, the reader should find an analysis of the corresponding term in it, conclusions regarding its essence and application.

4. Design tables, figures, diagrams and formulas

Materials may contain the tables and black-and-white schemes executed in the editor of Word (for Windows). Application of objects of Word Art in schemes isn't recommended.

Each table and picture should be supplied with the serial number and the heading/signature duplicated into English. All columns in tables also have to be named.

Formulas have to be gathered in the editor of Microsoft Equation where their set is more correct; a set of formulas in MathType …Equation is also possible .

If you gather a formula, gather it completely, it isn't necessary to leave one symbol and an equal-sign text set, and then to pass in the formula editor.

It is desirable to gather simple lower case formulas from the keyboard, without using the formula editor.

 Illustrations (drawings, graphs, diagrams, computer printouts, diagrams, photographs) should be placed in the text immediately after the text of the article, where they are mentioned for the first time, or on the next page (as close as possible to the relevant parts of the text of the article). All illustrations must be referenced in the text. When referring, you must write the word "figure" and its number, for example: "in accordance with figure 2", etc. Illustrations, if necessary, may have a name and explanatory data (figure text). The word "Figure", its number and the name through a dash are placed after the explanatory data and placed in the center under the figure without a dot at the end.

5. Footnotes and References

The number of footnotes should be appropriate for the type of material presented.

In footnotes, if possible, only sources are indicated. When making footnotes on materials posted on the Internet, be sure to indicate the full address and date of reception (referring to the source).

Retraction

Retraction of articles

1. General Provisions

1.1. Retraction (or retraction) is a withdrawal of a text (article) from publication, which indicates that the publication contains serious flaws or erroneous data that cannot be trusted.

1.2. The retraction procedure is carried out in order to prevent cases of:

• duplicate publications (when authors submit the same articles or data (without appropriate citations) in several publications);

• plagiarism;

• hiding conflicts of interest that could affect the interpretation of data or recommendations for their use.

1.3. Unreliable data and duplication can be the result of both delusion, unintentional error, and deliberate violations.

1.4. The revocation does not mean the deletion of the article from the website of the journal "Russian Journal of Biological Physics and Chemisrty", from bibliographic databases. The article remains in all of these resources with a clear notice of retraction and preservation of the digital object identifier [doi] or other permalink that locates it. This is necessary because the researchers may already have accessed and cited the paper, and therefore need to be warned about its retraction.

2. Reasons and grounds for retracting the article

2.1. The grounds for the retraction of the article are the violation of the ethical principles of the journal "Russian Journal of Biological Physics and Chemisrty".

2.2. The grounds for retracting the article are:

• detection of plagiarism in a publication;

If only a small part of the article (for example, a few sentences) is plagiarized, editors should consider whether it would be better for readers (and for the author of the work) if the article is amended with correct citations than a full retraction of the article.

• duplication of an article in several publications;

If a duplication of a publication is detected, the editors of the publications discuss the situation among themselves and can go one or two ways: 1. the text is withdrawn, simultaneously by all the publications that published the material received by them as a result of the fan distribution; 2. A consensus is reached on one version of the text that will not be withdrawn from publication (usually the earliest). In exceptional cases, when duplicating an article serves a specific purpose, you can not withdraw a repeated article, but make an edit, giving a footnote to the original source and the reason for duplication, for example, expanding the readership due to the specific thematic audience of the publication.

• detection of falsifications or fabrications (for example, manipulation of experimental data) or serious errors in the interpretation of the results;

When it is not possible to obtain conclusive evidence of the credibility of a publication (for example, if authors provide contradictory information; the institution where the authors work refuses to investigate alleged violations or make public the results of such investigations; if investigations were not conducted fairly or took an unreasonably long time), editors should publish doubts in regarding the text, rather than retract the publication. Such information should be submitted to the Council on Publication Ethics. If, over time, convincing confirmation of doubts is obtained, the article should be withdrawn from publication; if doubts are not confirmed, it is necessary to give an appropriate comment and inform the Council on the Ethics of Scientific Publications.
