The second Acta in my academic career, focusing on materials metallurgy. Going through the entire submission process, I feel that Acta is becoming increasingly difficult to get into, with higher demands for innovation. Perhaps this is because some of the submissions are now being directed towards the new energy sector? However, Acta's position in the field of metals is still unshakeable. I share my submission experience with everyone, hoping that both you and I can excel in our future research endeavors!

Has the time changed with the editor, or does it go directly to under review after with editor?

Good luck to all the experts for the first external review article during the master's period, whether it's major revision, minor revision, or just revisions.

The review process was very fast, taking about a month each time. The editor was Emmanuel Clouet, and there were two reviewers who carefully examined the article, providing over 30 comments in total. The timeline details are not remembered, but it was roughly as follows:
1-3 submitted
1-4 with editor
1-6 under review
1-13 under review
2-6 major revision
4-2 resubmitted/with editor
4-3 under review
4-28 minor revision (Comments: accepted after format and symbol modifications)
5-7 resubmitted/with editor.

I would like to ask how fast Lu Lei is at processing articles and whether he can submit them for review.

Submitted on December 17, 2024, with editor that evening.
The date changed to December 25, 2024, with editor, didn't expect foreigners to work on Christmas.
On December 26, 2024, with editor, the date changed again, this time it was said to be assigned to the executive editor Stefano Curtarolo. Not sure about this editor, hoping for a smooth review process!

I asked my supervisor, and he said that November 25, 2024 is the "with editor" status. It was probably with the editor before, and now it has been assigned to the responsible editor.

There was another we in the middle, but I didn't note the time. Does acta only show the final status time? Do we need to keep track of the ones in between?

This time the work feels okay, last time was a bit off and I've already suggested transferring it...
