Once any changes have been made and the manuscript has been accepted for publication in its final form, the IRASEC editor will send the proofs by e-mail to the author for verification. In all cases, the editor will double-check the proof and endeavour to ensure that all errors are corrected. The Editor reserves the right to make minor changes to the final proof, without further consultation with the author, for reasons of production time.

This contract is checked and co-signed by the author, the IRASEC management and a representative of the CNRS, the supervisory body of IRASEC.
