Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Neutrinos remain a central focus in particle physics due to their role in testing fundamental symmetries and exploring possible extensions of the Standard Model. This Special Issue highlights recent developments in neutrino physics, with an emphasis on the interplay between experimental data and theoretical interpretation.
We invite contributions on topics including the following:
- Neutrino Interactions and Detector Systematics: Analyses of neutrino–nucleus interactions, cross-section measurements, and detector-related uncertainties. Submissions may also focus on the design and performance of detection technologies such as liquid and gaseous argon time projection chambers (TPCs), as used in experiments like the Short Baseline Neutrino program at Fermilab and DUNE.
- Theoretical Perspectives and BSM Physics: Research exploring theoretical models that address neutrino mass generation, CP violation, sterile neutrinos, and connections to dark matter. Additionally, topics that propose novel search strategies in the detector types mentioned above are particularly encouraged. Interpretations of experimental anomalies within BSM frameworks are also welcome.
To frame the scope more broadly, this Special Issue may include contributions that examine the connection between experimental observables and theoretical models in neutrino physics. We look forward to 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. 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.
