Answer:

The academic research journal

Explanation:

Academic research journals are written by professionals in the relevant fields  and usually reviewed and edited by knowledgeable professionals in the same field before being published.

On the other hand, science news magazines are written and edited by professional journalists that may have little or no knowledge about the subject. The magazine publications are usually for general audience and as such simplified accordingly, a situation that might lead to loss or misrepresentation of vital information.
