# Author publication charges
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Finally some information about the AAS Journal's publication charges.
|
||
|
|
In April 2011 the traditional way of calculating author charges based on
|
||
|
|
the number of printed pages was changed. The reason for the change
|
||
|
|
was due to a recognition of the growing number of article items that could not
|
||
|
|
be represented in print. Now author charges are determined by a number of
|
||
|
|
digital ``quanta``. A single quantum is 350 words, one figure, one table,
|
||
|
|
and one enhanced digital item. For the latter this includes machine readable
|
||
|
|
tables, figure sets, animations, and interactive figures. The current cost
|
||
|
|
for the different quanta types is available at
|
||
|
|
\url{https://journals.aas.org/article-charges-and-copyright/#author_publication_charges}.
|
||
|
|
Authors may use the ApJL length calculator to get a *rough* estimate of
|
||
|
|
the number of word and float quanta in their manuscript. The calculator
|
||
|
|
is located at \url{https://authortools.aas.org/ApJL/betacountwords.html}.
