Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Researches in black hole physics cover now a vast territory ranging from general relativity to observational astrophysics to cosmology. Black holes are not only theoretical predictions of relativistic gravity theories, they may well be abundant in our universe, which enhances the motivation for their theoretical study and observation. The present “special issue” is to focus on these objects from different viewpoints, thereby adding to the physical understanding of the black holes. We would like to call for papers sharing ideas on a diversity of topics, including but not restricted to:
- black hole radiation and information loss
- dynamical black holes and trapping horizons
- black hole solutions in theories of modified gravity
- black hole formation in high energy collisions
- black holes in an expanding universe
- mathematical aspects related to black holes and the theory of horizons
- brane world black holes, stringy black holes
- conformal symmetry and black hole entropy
Review papers are also welcome.

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. Galaxies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 1400 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.
