Page charges

For articles accepted after April 1, 2011, please refer to the new article charges page.

Page charges are required for publication in The Astronomical Journal. These cover some of the costs of publication and allow us to more fairly share charges between researchers and libraries. Please be aware that the journal is published by the American Astronomical Society and does not receive direct funding from any external agencies. Support from page charges allows lower subscription prices and thus a greater circulation for the journal as well as open access after two years.

Page charge forms will be sent automatically on acceptance of an article for publication in the journal. We thank you for your prompt submission of completed page charge forms so that we can publish your paper more quickly and efficiently. Please be advised that we cannot publish papers until we have received completed and signed page charge forms from every institution contributing to the page charges.
