<p class="MsoNormal">This means that from January 2026 the procedure to cover Article Processing Charges (APCs) for MNRAS papers will change. Funding for APCs for UKRI-funded research can be requested from the Institutional block grant, administered by the
University (see <a href="https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/library/research/open-access/requesting-oa-funding/funding.aspx">
https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/library/research/open-access/requesting-oa-funding/funding.aspx</a>). Note that, currently, all our research is at least partially funded by UKRI since we all use Phil Parry’s computing support, and he is funded by UKRI. Please
make sure you acknowledge the Nottingham Astronomy consolidated grant in your paper and quote it in your request (of course, if you have additional UKRI funding, you should also acknowledge it). The details of the consolidated grant are:<o:p></o:p></p>
