Our publication bridges cutting-edge research and the broader scientific community.

2. Who is the target audience for Event Horizon Review?

Our primary audience includes researchers, physicists, academics, science journalists, graduate students in astrophysics and theoretical physics, and enthusiasts of theoretical and observational astrophysics. We strive to make complex physics accessible while maintaining technical rigor that professionals expect.

3. How can I submit an article or contribute to Event Horizon Review?

We welcome contributions from researchers and science writers. Please send your pitch or manuscript to info@eventhorizonreview.org with a brief description of your background and the proposed topic. Include an outline or draft if available. Our editorial team reviews all submissions and typically responds within 2-3 weeks.

4. What are your editorial standards and fact-checking procedures?

We maintain rigorous editorial standards. All articles undergo technical review by our editorial board members, who are experts in relevant fields. We verify scientific claims against peer-reviewed literature, consult with active researchers when necessary, and ensure proper citation of sources. Our goal is to provide content that meets the accuracy standards expected by professional physicists.

5. How should I cite Event Horizon Review articles in my research?

When citing our articles, please include: Author name(s), Article title, "Event Horizon Review" (publication name), Publication date, and URL. For example: "Schneider, M. (2025). The Formation of Black Holes: From Stellar Collapse to Singularity. Event Horizon Review. https://eventhorizonreview.org/blog-article-black-hole-formation.html"

6. Are your articles peer-reviewed?

While Event Horizon Review is not a peer-reviewed academic journal in the traditional sense, all our content undergoes editorial review by our board of expert astrophysicists and theoretical physicists. We ensure scientific accuracy and technical correctness, though our articles are analytical and journalistic rather than original research publications.

7. Can I use your content for educational purposes?

Yes, you may use our content for educational and academic purposes with proper attribution. This includes using articles in courses, citing in research papers, and referencing in presentations. However, please review our Terms of Service regarding restrictions on commercial use and republication.

8. How often do you publish new content?

We publish new articles and analyses on a regular basis, typically several times per month. The frequency varies depending on significant developments in the field and the availability of high-quality content. We also provide rapid response coverage of major observational discoveries and theoretical breakthroughs.

9. Do you offer collaboration opportunities with research institutions?

Yes, we actively seek partnerships with research institutions, observatories, and academic departments. Collaborations may include specialized coverage of research projects, advance briefings on upcoming observations, or coordinated science communication efforts. Please contact us at info@eventhorizonreview.org to discuss potential collaborations.

10. How can I stay updated on new publications?

Currently, you can bookmark our website and check back regularly for new content. We are developing a newsletter subscription service that will notify subscribers of new articles and major updates. You can also follow us on professional social media platforms including LinkedIn, ResearchGate, and Twitter.

11. What technical level should I expect in your articles?

Our articles assume readers have at least undergraduate-level knowledge of physics and mathematics. We explain advanced concepts clearly but do not shy away from technical details when they are essential to understanding. We aim for a level appropriate for graduate students and researchers while remaining accessible to informed non-specialists.

12. Do you cover topics beyond black holes?

While black holes are our primary focus, we cover related topics in astrophysics, general relativity, quantum mechanics, and cosmology when they intersect with black hole physics. This includes gravitational waves, neutron stars, quantum field theory in curved spacetime, and observational astronomy techniques relevant to studying compact objects.
