Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on the role of symmetry in the study of neutron stars and black holes, two of the most mysterious objects in the universe. Symmetry plays a crucial role in our understanding of the physical laws governing these celestial bodies, influencing their formation, structure, and dynamics. This Special Issue aims to bring together a diverse range of research that contributes to the advancement of our knowledge of neutron stars and black holes. Contributions from theoretical, observational, and computational perspectives are welcome, providing a comprehensive view of how symmetry shapes our understanding of these enigmatic objects.
“Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the universe exists, why we exist”. — The Grand Design, by Stephen Hawking and Leonard Mlodinow.
Key topics covered in this Special Issue include the following:
- Black holes;
- Gravitational waves;
- Stellar evolution and neutron stars;
- High-energy astrophysics.

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.
