This is Elsevier's new document class for typeset journal articles, elsarticle.cls. It is now accepted for submitted articles, both in Elsevier's electronic submission system and elsewhere.

Elsevier's previous document class for typeset articles, elsart.cls, is now over 10 years old. It has been replaced with this newly written document class elsarticle.cls, which has been developed for Elsevier by the leading TeX developer STM Document Engineering Pvt Ltd.

elsarticle.cls is based upon the standard LaTeX document class article.cls. It uses natbib.sty for bibliographical references.
