NATIONAL CONFERENCE ON PHYSICS AND EMERGING SCIENCES

April 6-7, 2015

Department of Physics Allama Iqbal University, Islamabad

Guidelines for Manuscript Preparation The manuscript of the paper to be presented at the conference should be prepared according

to following instructions, and submitted via email at the following address: jalilawan@gmail.com

INTRODUCTION Each paper, including figures and tables, should be limited to 8 pages. The paper should be

typed as a single-columned text on A4 size using MS WORD, with left, right, upper and

lower margins being 1 inch.

ORGANIZATION OF THE PAPER A short abstract should state briefly the content, methods and the results only. Define

abbreviations and acronyms the first time they are used. Avoid footnotes at the bottom of the

page.

Structure of the Paper Papers should have the following structure: Title, Name(s) of authors(s) and affiliation,

Abstract, Main Text, Conclusions, Acknowledgements (if applicable) and References.

Heading Categories

TITLE (type in bold capitals) MAIN SECTION HEADINGS (type in bold capitals) Sub-headings (Type in bold lower case)

Fonts Title: Time New Roman, 14 points, bold, capital Author(s): Time New Roman, 11 points, bold, lower case Affiliation: Time New Roman, 10 points, regular, lower case Section Titles: Time New Roman, 12 points, bold, capital

Sub-headings: Time New Roman, 12 points, bold, lower case

Abstract: Time New Roman, 11 points, regular, single line spacing Main Text: Time New Roman, 12 points, regular, 1.5 line spacing

Units and Equations Use SI units only. Equations should be typed using MS Equation Editor. In the text equation

should be referred to as Eq.(1). Align left each equation and allow single line spacing above

and below, as:

cos _ + cos _ = 2 cos

__ + __ cos

__ − __ (1)

Tables, Figures and Photographs Briefly and descriptively title each table and caption each figure (Time New Roman, 11

points, regular). Place table title above the table and figure caption below the figure. Each

table and figure should be referred to in the text (e.g., Fig. 1, Table 1); and placed in the order

referred to and as close as possible to the first reference in the text. Allow single spacing

between the table or figure and the adjacent text, and no space between the table title and

table (or figure caption and the figure). Tables and figures should be numbered consecutively

with single Arabic numerals. Examples:-

Table 1. Experimental data. Length (cm) Width (cm) Area (cm

2)

3.0 1.5 4.5 8.3 3.0 24.9

11.0 2.5 27.5

Fig. 1. Hydrogen-plasma emission spectrum

Note: Do not reduce figures or tables to a size that is difficult to read.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION All the results obtained should be discussed in detail.

CONCLUSIONS State the main findings in brief only. Acknowledgement Acknowledgement comes here. (if required) REFERENCES References should be typed using Time New Roman, 11 points. Example of
