On October 2nd, my first first-author paper was accepted for publication in Icarus! The title of the paper is “Gravity constraints on the age and formation of the Moon's Reiner Gamma magnetic anomaly”.
The timeline of work was as follows:
Initial submission: 21 June 2019
Reviews received: 20 August 2019
Resubmission: 16 September 2019
Accepted for publication: 2 October 2019
I am interested to see how the next process, copyediting/typsetting/etc. proceeds, and excited to see my work in the final, journal-ready format!
Before the initial submission of the paper, my advisor and I went through sixteen drafts! I made this gif to give a better sense of how much the paper changed over time.
