Preprints and Nature
Abstract
Exposure of preprints on servers does not preempt their submission to this journal.
In some scientific disciplines it is common for draft papers to be circulated to colleagues before publication — a practice that has become formalized with the advent of electronic preprint servers pioneered at the Los Alamos National Laboratory. Superstring theorists and others working at high energies were in the vanguard, and it may be relevant to note that these communities are, within the spectrum of disciplines, unusual in their approach to peer review — for example, many high-energy physics experimental papers are refereed extensively within the large teams of collaborating authors before being circulated.
