This  list  is common  to  Monthly  Notices  of the Royal  nuclear reactions,  nucleosynthesis, abundances 
Astronomical  Society,  Astronomy  and  Astrophysics,  plasmas 
and  The  Astrophysical  Journal.  In order  to ease  the  polarization 
search,  the key words are  subdivided  into broad cate-  radiation  mechanisms:  non-thermal 
gories.  No  more  than  six  subcategories  altogether  radiation  mechanisms:  thermal 
should be listed for a paper.  radiative transfer 
The  subcategories  in boldface  containing  the word  relativity 
‘individual’  are  intended  for use  with  specific  astro-  scattering 
nomical objects; these should never be used alone, but  shock waves 
always in combination  with the most  common  names  turbulence 
for the astronomical objects in question. Note that each  waves 
object  counts  as  one  subcategory  within  the  allowed 
limit of six.  Astronomical  instrumentation,  methods and
