Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Heavy-fermion systems, as a prototype of correlated electron systems, feature a rich variety of quantum ground states, including unconventional superconductivity, antiferromagnetism, ferromagnetism, non-fermi liquid states, spin liquids, and topological states. Due to the relatively low energy scale in heavy-fermion systems, these quantum states can be easily tuned with multiple methods, and the study of heavy-fermion physics has been a frontier in the fundamental research of quantum materials.
The aim of this Special Issue is to collate world-leading research on the latest exciting theoretical and experimental results in the field of heavy-fermion systems. We hope to provide a platform to present emergent phenomena, discuss the underlying physics, and suggest future research directions. Therefore, we seek original research articles and reviews in this Special Issue. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the above-mentioned research fronts.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Magnetism is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 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.
