\section*{Introduction~}

{\label{777578}}

State the objectives of the work and provide an adequate background,
avoiding a detailed literature survey or a summary of the results.%

\section*{Material and methods~}

{\label{224718}}

Provide sufficient detail to allow the work to be reproduced. Methods
already published should be indicated by a reference: only relevant
modifications should be described.

\section*{Theory/calculation~}

{\label{909902}}

A Theory section should extend, not repeat, the background to the
article already dealt with in the Introduction and lay the foundation
for further work. In contrast, a Calculation section represents a
practical development from a theoretical basis.

\section*{Results~}

{\label{355639}}

Results should be clear and concise.

\section*{Discussion~}

{\label{619438}}

This should explore the significance of the results of the work, not
repeat them. A combined Results and Discussion section is often
appropriate. Avoid extensive citations and discussion of published
literature.

\section*{Conclusions~}

{\label{163211}}

The main conclusions of the study may be presented in a short
Conclusions section, which may stand alone or form a subsection of a
Discussion or Results and Discussion section.

\section*{Appendices~}

{\label{645369}}

If there is more than one appendix, they should be identified as A, B,
etc. Formulae and equations in appendices should be given separate
numbering: Eq. (A.1), Eq. (A.2), etc.; in a subsequent appendix, Eq.
(B.1) and so on. Similarly for tables and figures: Table A.1; Fig. A.1,
etc.

\section*{Vitae~}

{\label{579909}}

Include in the manuscript a short (maximum 100 words) biography of each
author, along with a passport-type photograph accompanying the other
figures.
