Very few scientific articles are published without severe restrictions on word length. Most scientific articles can expect to be referenced in collections of abstracts and citation indices. Therefore your essay should have a short abstract on the title page, with an absolute upper limit of 50 words. References within the text of a scientific article must conform with the editorial policy of the journal in which it is published. A list of references is essential.
Different journals adopt different formats for references.
If you don't have access to a printer which can handle italic and boldface fonts, the name of the book or journal and volume number should be underlined. If there is some very detailed piece of mathematics, or description of equipment, that you feel cannot be left out, it should be put in an appendix. Page designed by Creative Code .
