The results of individual studies are published in a pamphlet called the Adelphi Papers , and in the bimonthly journal Survival . Providing information is also an important part of the institute's activities, and its annual publications, the Military Balance and Strategic Survey , are considered to be among the most authoritative sources on the world's armaments and military situation.
