Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Technological development relies on novel magnetic materials, the design and characterization of which constitutes a highly challenging task for the contemporary magnetochemistry community and, more generally, for condensed matter scientists. In particular, the needs of nanotechnology stimulate the progress in magnetochemistry and prove that the most promising materials may include molecule-based systems (incorporating, for example, single-molecule magnets and metal–organic frameworks), various classes of magnetic nanostructures, and a plethora of related systems. Their existing and future applications can be as diverse as quantum information processing and magnetocaloric cooling. Maintaining the progress requires the development of novel theoretical models to describe the existing materials and optimize their properties as well as emergence of new theoretical ideas to invent and design innovative magnetic systems with unique attributes. On the other hand, their characterization stimulates mastering the relevant experimental techniques. The broad and interdisciplinary field of magnetism calls for concerted efforts of theoreticians and experimentalists focused on achieving a complete understanding of the highly promising materials.
The aim of this Special Issue of Applied Sciences entitled “Modern Magnetic Systems: Theory and Experiment in Concert” is to collect works deepening our knowledge on modern magnetic materials. The scope of this issue includes but is not limited to the following theoretical and experimental topics: the theory of modern magnetic systems; contemporary models useful for their description, understanding, and prediction of the properties; relevant computational methods in the field of magnetism; and experimental approaches and techniques for characterization of modern magnetic materials. Papers focused on either theoretical or experimental results are welcome, whereas studies combining both approaches would be especially valuable.
It is my great pleasure to invite you to submit your manuscripts presenting recent original results to this Special Issue of Applied Sciences.
You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Magnetochemistry.

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. Applied Sciences 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 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.
