Authors are encouraged to submit electronic files. Any software can be used for text and pictures preparation, but LaTeX is preferable. For these purposes, the mhd package is provided. Please submit your manuscript as a PDF file by e-mail to mhd@lu.lv .
To prepare a manuscript for Magnetohydrodynamics, you must have available a working TeX installation, complete with LaTeX, BibTeX, text editor, previewer and any auxiliary applications needed to operate it. Commercial and shareware TeX distributions for most computers can be found through the TeX Users Group (http://www.tug.org). These distributions usually contain the LaTeX document preparation system upon which our system is based. For Windows users we recommend MikTeX distribution, and teTeX distribution for UNIX compatible systems. teTeX is included in most major Linux distributions such that Red Hat, Linux-Mandrake and SuSE.
The manuscript preparation system for Magnetohydrodynamics consists of the following parts:
The simplest solution requires the copy of file mhd.cls into the directory where your documents are placed. Keep it there while preparing the document for Magnetohydrodynamics.
The complete installation procedure contains following steps:
Start your document with a shell as follows
\documentclass[twoside]{mhd}
In next the title of your contribution should be coded as follows
\title{Your contributed title}
Title should be in sentence style. Capitalized only first and special words. Titles have no end punctation.
In next the name(s) of the author(s) names must be given:
\author{author(s) name(s)}
The first name initial is followed by the surname.
Next the address(es) of institute(s), company etc. is (are) required.
\institute{name of institute}
If there are more than one address, the entries are numbered automatically with \and, in the order you type them.
\institute{name of institute}
\and name of next institute
\and name of last institute}
In this case with different affiliations of authors each name has to be followed by \inst{<no>}, where <num> matches the number of institute(s). For example
\author{ F. Author\inst{1}, S. Author\inst{1,2}}
Document text starts with
\begin{document}
In next the command
\maketitle
formats the complete heading of your article.
The abstract is enclosed by \begin{abstract} and \end{abstract}.
Section headings are input as in standard LaTeX article syle.
\section{Title text}
\subsection{Title text}
Use directional quotes for quotation marks arround quoted text (``text''), not straight double quotes ("text").
Vectors must be typed as bold and slanted. For these purposes the operation \bvec is been introduced and must be used instead of the standard LaTeX \vec or RevTeX \bbox operations.
Vector field operations must be typed as \Div, \Rot and \Grad.
References are cited in text using the \cite{<key>} command and are listed in the bibliography using the \bibitem{<key>} command. Put the list of references after the main body of the paper using one of two alternative methods.
If you are using BibTeX, give command
\bibliographystyle{mhd}
\bibliography{<bib files>}
where <bib files> is a comma-separated list of BibTeX bibliography database files.
Alternatively, you may use an explicit thebibliography environment:
\begin{thebibliography}{10}
