The Journal of Radiological Protection is issued free of charge to members of the Society and is available on subscription to non-members and institutions.

The Journal publishes articles (in English) on all aspects of radiological protection, including non-ionising as well as ionising radiation, from fields of operational interest, research and development to education and training. The very wide spectrum of its research topics includes: dosimetry, instrument development, specialised measuring techniques, epidemiology, biological effects and environmental impact and risk assessments.

Reports that are not available to the general public will not be regarded as prior publications. Articles based on theses or dissertations for degrees may be submitted.
