Now with Online First there is no reason to wait for printed issues or the completion of an issue.

Using DOIs, articles are available on line as soon as they have been corrected and proof read by the author. On Online First the articles are published in their final form. Online First is not a pre-print service, articles are peer-reviewed and author corrected.

In consequence:

• e-form = final form


• faster publication


• proper citation via DOIs

At the time being, Online First is available for EPJ A, EPJ B, EPJ C, EPJ D and EPJ E.
