Chinese Astronomy and Astrophysics translates articles predominantly from Acta Astronautica Sinica (AAnS) and Acta
Astrophysica Sinica (AApS),
and occasionally from other related Chinese-language journals such as Chinese Journal
of Space Science
(CJSS). All these journals employ a peer referee system. Contributions
come mainly from the following centres of research and increasingly
more papers originate in
international cooperative work.

Observatory, Academia Sinica, Beijing.

Astronomical Observatory, Academia Sinica, Shanghai.
Department of Astronomy and
Astrophysics, Nanjing University, Nanjing.
Centre for Astrophysics, University of

It is our
aim to cover all the significant
papers and our translation generally appears within four to six
months of the Chinese original.
Notes on Chinese Romanisation, the
way Chinese names
are written and the traditional sexagenary cycle are given on the inside back cover.
