ياد حرف شاهين افتادم وقتي كه به استنفورد رفتيم. گفت استنفورد دوجور استاد و شاگرد و پست داك داره. دسته ي اول كه مي نازند كه در استنفورد هستند و از اسم استنفورد براي خودشان اعتبار مي خرند و دوم دسته اي كه استنفورد مي نازه كه چنين افرادي را داره و استنفورد از نام آنها اعتبار براي خودش مي خره. من و تو بايد تمام كوشش خود را بكنيم كه از دسته ي دوم باشيم.

الغرض! در زير اطلاعيه ي رسمي مجله را مي توانيد بخوانيد:

Dear EPJ C Editors and colleagues,

The new impact factors (IF) have just been published and with a highly
impressive IF of 5.25 we have overtaken PRD (4.69), NPB (4.33) and PLB
(4.57), with only JHEP (5.62) slightly ahead. At the same time we are
staying ahead, in terms of IF, of many if not most related astroparticle
and gravity journals, as we are actively expanding our scope into these
areas.

Of course, please keep in mind that the IF is relative - for every
journal only a comparatively small fraction of papers determine the IF.
However, it definitely demonstrates the continuously growing potential
of EPJ C to attract excellent papers.

It is a pleasure to thank all of you for contributing to the ongoing
effort to further establish EPJ C among the highly valued journals in
the field.

With best regards

Ignatios Antoniadis, Jos Engelen and Gino Isidori, Editors-in-Chief
Christian Caron, Publishing Editor
