The kind of journal that gives submissions to outside scientists read and comment upon is called a peer-reviewed journal.

Here's how it works:

1. Submission: A scientist submits their research paper to the journal.

2. Peer Review: The journal editor sends the paper to other experts in the field (known as "peers") to evaluate it. These reviewers are usually anonymous to ensure impartiality.

3. Feedback: The reviewers provide feedback, including suggestions for improvements, potential flaws, and whether the research is sufficiently novel and important to be published.

4. Decision: The editor considers the reviewers' feedback and makes a decision:

* Accept: The paper is published as is.

* Revise and Resubmit: The author needs to make changes based on the reviewer's feedback and resubmit the paper.

* Reject: The paper is not suitable for publication in the journal.

This process, known as peer review, ensures the quality, rigor, and validity of published research. It helps weed out flawed studies, improves the quality of accepted papers, and fosters scientific progress.
