History

edit

RACSAM was created on March 7th, 2001 by the mathematics department of the Spanish Royal Academy of Sciences.[1] The journal publishes one volume per year, and all papers are in English. Its first editor-in-chief was Prof. Jesús Ildefonso Díaz (2001-2005). It is a series of the journal Revista de la Real Academia de Ciencias Exactas, Físicas y Naturales, founded in 1905, a generic journal covering physical and natural sciences as well as mathematics. As a result, both journals have the same volume numbering. In 2005, Prof. Manuel Lopez-Pellicer became the editor-in-chief of the journal. It was published by the Royal Academy until 2010, then by Springer in 2011. It entered the Journal Citation Reports in 2011 and was ranked 56th out of 309 journals in the Mathematical Sciences Section of the 2017 Journal Citation Reports. The RACSAM papers in the years 2001-2010 appear in open access at the website. As from 2008, they appear at the Springer journal site.
