Details: Deadline Extension for Publication of Results (Form 28)
Deadline: before publication deadline
If you are unable to publish your research results within three years after the end of the research term due to a valid reason, you may request an extension by submitting an Extension Request Form. The form can be submitted starting one year before the original publication deadline. An extension will be granted upon the approval of the SPring-8/SACLA Research Results Review Committee. Generally, an extension will be granted when the following circumstances are given as reasons for application:
Manuscript has been accepted but not yet published.
Failure to obtain expected results (but an additional experiment or analysis during the extension period will help produce publishable results).
Long-term research project (but publication of results is expected during the extension period).
Other inevitable circumstances: serious illness/injury, pregnancy/childbirth, earthquake, fire, flood disaster, etc.
*Note that your request will be subject to review when the scientific and technological significance needs to be reviewed (e.g., manuscripts before acceptance, challenging research that takes substantial time to publish, etc.). Also note that reasons such as obtaining a patent or commercialization of intellectual property are not acceptable. If an extension is not granted, you are required to publish your results in SPring-8/SACLA Research Report by the due date.
