Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special issue of Symmetry, entitled “Symmetry in Ultracold Gases and Superfluidity”, seeks to explore new frontiers in ultracold atoms. This Special Issue will particularly focus on investigating novel quantum phases and quantum phase transitions in ultracold atomic quantum matter and also its applications to quantum information and metrology. Recently, systems of bosonic or fermionic quantum gases allow for a very high level of experimental control concerning all ingredients of the underlying many-body Hamiltonian. Therefore, ultracold atomic or molecular quantum gases are considered to be ideal quantum simulators, that is, they are best capable to simulate difficult problems in quantum many-body physics.
Contributions are invited for cutting-edge researches that simulate many known condensed matter phenomena such as superfluid-insulator transition, BEC-BCS crossover, as well as reveal many completely new physics, like discrete time-crystal, many-body localization and etc. This Special issue will be tied closely to the latest developments in this direction and to address major challenges as well as to discuss new directions. The aim of the present Special issue is to exchange ideas and boost new approaches, techniques, and perspectives.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Symmetry is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
