Finding Article Template for New Journal - PRX Quantum I've undertaken some novel work as part of my undergraduate thesis and have been advised that this work goes sufficiently beyond the brief of an undergrad thesis and is novel enough to submit for publication. Since this will be my first paper and my supervisor is a subject matter expert, we've decided that we will coauthor an article based upon this research.
The most relevant fields are Quantum Electronics and Quantum Optics, so the logical place to publish this would seem to be Physical Review X's new spinoff PRX Quantum, launched last month.
However, I've been unable to find a LaTex template for articles in this new journal.
Would anyone know where I could find this? If not, would it be inappropriate to email the editor and ask if one exists?
I suggest you use the prx option included in REVTeX-4.2, e.g. using
\documentclass[prx,twocolumn,english,superscriptaddress,floatfix,longbibliography]{revtex4-2} (Without having compared too closely, the style used by PRX Quantum seems to be the same as in PRX.) If you have an earlier version of REVTeX that doesn't support prx, just use the preset for another APS journal. Either way, they'll handle the minutiae of formatting should the manuscript be accepted.
It's not inappropriate to ask journal staff about templates, but they state that submissions in REVTeX or MS Word are preferred, and I think using prx is the closest you can get using REVTeX at the moment.
