Energy and Environment Science" published by…

The research results were also printed in the journal "Energy and Environment Science" published by the Royal Society of England, which recognizes and promotes excellence in science.


Shouldn’t there be a comma in front of “published

like "Energy and Environment Science”, published by the Royal Society of England?


Or “published by…”can modify “the journal” without the comma, skipping the word “Energy and Environment Science"?


What do you native English speakers think? Thank you so much as usual in advance

Yes, it seems there should be a comma there, but your alternative interpretation also seems possible, so I would say you could do that sentence with or without the comma.
