Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Though the standard model provides an elegant description of particle contents of the matter, it suffers from the hierarchy problem. Furthermore, the cosmological observations strongly suggest that dark matters and dark energy exist, implying new physics beyond the standard model exist. One of the best candidates for the new physics is the supersymmetry theory which can solve the hierarchy problem, maintain gauge coupling unification, and provide a suitable dark matter candidate. However, the experimental search for supersymmetric models still remains elusive. Thus, a profound study on the phenomenology of supersymmetry theory is essential in order to discover more about new physics. Other applications of supersymmetry, such as supersymmetric quantum mechanics and mathematical studies of supersymmetry, are also encouraged in this Special Issue.

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.
