Editorial Announcement: Withdrawal of Chin. Phys. Lett. 24 (2007) 1821

CHIN.PHYS.LETT.
Vol. 25, No. 8 (2008) 3094

This paper was submitted on 1 February 2007 and appeared in the July issue of 2007 in Chinese Physics Letters. Later it appeared also as arXiv:grqc/ 0707.1776 in July 2007.

As noted recently by the arXiv administrator, this paper plagiarized an earlier arXiv paper (grqc/0508005) by I. Radinschi and Th. Grammenos, which also appeared in Int. J. Mod. Phys. A 21 (2006) 4309.

This article by M. Aygun et al. should not have been submitted for publication owing to such substantial replication of an earlier paper. Chinese Physics Letters hereby declares the withdrawal of this paper ‘Moller Energy–Momentum Complex in General Relativity for Higher Dimensional Universes’ by M. Aygun, S. Aygun, I. Yilmaz, H. Baysal, and I. Tarhan published in Chinese Physics Letters, 24 (2007) 1821.

It is unfortunate that this plagiarism was not detected before going to press. I apologize to the readers of Chinese Physics Letters and to Dr I. Radinschi and Dr Th. Grammenos for such an oversight.

Editor: ZHU Bang-Fen
