Metrics
“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric. Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline.
Is this the right journal for your paper?
The AI Journal Finder ranks the best-matched journals for your paper’s topic — with tier, open access, citation rate and predatory flags. Free to start.
Responding time
Turnaround figures are indicative, not a guarantee: DOAJ values are self-reported by the journal (average weeks, submission to publication); library estimates are medians of the received/accepted dates printed in papers we hold. Editorial times vary by article type and season — confirm on the journal’s own site.
Indexing & access
Access status: gold. Where this comes from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic — confirm on the journal’s own site, especially regarding any article processing charge.
Free to publish — DOAJ lists no article processing charge (APC).

Frequently asked
Is Nuclear Engineering and Technology a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Nuclear Engineering and Technology. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.
Is Nuclear Engineering and Technology indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Nuclear Engineering and Technology appears in: DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is the impact factor of Nuclear Engineering and Technology?
Papers in Nuclear Engineering and Technology are cited about 2.6 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q2, with an h-index of 82. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.
What Scimago quartile is Nuclear Engineering and Technology (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
Scimago places Nuclear Engineering and Technology in Q2 for its subject category. Quartiles split the journals in a field into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; Nuclear Engineering and Technology is cited about 2.6 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 82. A journal is ranked per subject category, so one spanning several fields can sit in different quartiles depending on the category.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Nuclear Engineering and Technology?
The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for Nuclear Engineering and Technology. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q2, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.
Is Nuclear Engineering and Technology open access?
Our index records its access status as "gold". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.
Is Nuclear Engineering and Technology free to publish in?
Free to publish — DOAJ lists no article processing charge (APC). So there is no fee for authors to publish in Nuclear Engineering and Technology. Fee policies change — confirm on the journal's own site before relying on it.
How long does Nuclear Engineering and Technology take to publish a paper?
Submission to publication for Nuclear Engineering and Technology takes about ~32 wk — DOAJ self-reported. Treat it as indicative rather than a guarantee: editorial times vary by article type, reviewer availability and season, and a self-reported figure is the journal's own. We do not hold a peer-review acceptance rate for Nuclear Engineering and Technology.
