"Articles naming" counts the research articles (of up to 200 from the last 24 months) whose funder list names European Space Agency. *Impact factor calculated from OpenAlex open data, not the official Clarivate value. Review time: median days from submission to acceptance, from the dates publishers deposit in Crossref.

Frequently asked questions

Which journals publish the most European Space Agency funded research?

In the recent research articles we checked, the journals that name European Space Agency as a funder most often are New Astronomy, Surveys in Geophysics, Atmospheric measurement techniques, CEAS Space Journal, Journal of Space Weather and Space Climate. In all, 28 journals name it.

Does publishing in these journals help my European Space Agency grant?

These journals already publish work supported by European Space Agency, so editors and reviewers know this kind of research. Whether a journal suits your paper still depends on its scope, indexing and review time, shown for each journal in the table.

Does European Space Agency pay the article processing charge (APC)?

Many funders pay or reimburse open access fees under their open access policy, but the rules differ by funder and by grant. Check European Space Agency's open access policy and your grant terms; for country-based waivers, use the free APC waiver checker.

Where does this data come from?

From the funder information publishers deposit with each article in Crossref. For each journal, ScholarsColab looked at up to 200 research articles from the last 24 months and counted the funders they name. Not every publisher deposits funders, so a journal can be missing.
