A(n) [Undergraduate/Master’s/PhD] Level Submission

The abstract is to be no more than 150 words. The required full paper is to be submitted in Microsoft Word format. Papers for the 38th Annual Conference of the Canadian Nuclear Society (CNS-2018) should be submitted directly to:

1.Introduction

The following should be applied to the entire paper:

-Font type: Times New Roman

-Font Size: 12

-Margins: Normal (1” on top, bottom, left and right)

2.Body text formatting

Paragraphs should be separated by one line space (with no indentation).

All body text should be fully justified

Section headings (refer to the format shown in this document):

-One line space between previous paragraph and section headings

-Bolded with the number and period for the heading followed by a tab space of 0.5” from the left margin

-The first letter of the heading should be upper case and the rest of the heading is lower case unless the word requires upper case (e.g., Super-Critical Water-cooled Reactors)

2.1Subheading in a heading section

The rules outlined for section headings should be applied to SUB-section headings with the following exception: only one line space should appear between the previous paragraph and the sub-section heading title

2.1.1Sub-subheading in a subheaded section

In case a sub-subheading is required, the same principles apply, except that the sub-subheading title is to be in underlined instead of bolded.

3.Formatting for figures and tables

Figures should be numbered consecutively throughout the paper from 1 onwards. All figures should be centred and the caption should appear below the respective figure (REFER TO THE CAPTION FORMAT SHOWN IN THE EXAMPLE FIGURE). Leave one line between the body text, the diagram and the caption. References to figures within the text should also appear consecutively and should be formatted as Figure 1 or Figures 2 and 3 (when referring to multiple figures in a sentence).

The same principles apply to tables except that the caption should appear ABOVE the table instead of below

Figure 1 Example of a diagram. Figure captions should adhere to this format.

4.Formatting for equations and references

Equations should be numbered in their order of appearance using round brackets as shown below. Referencing equations such as Equation (1) within the text should follow the format used in this sentence.

(1)

References in the text can be made to literature listed in the reference section, located at the end of the paper, by numbering the literature with numbers in square brackets e.g., [1]. The references are incremented in sequence of appearance in the text. Repeated references to the same literature can be made using the same reference number [1]. In this case, the reference number will be incremented on the next new literature cited. The format for references should be the same as what is shown in Section 7 of this document.
