Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With great pleasure, we would like to announce that, based on presentations at “Testing Gravity 2023” (TG2023) (https://www.sfu.ca/physics/cosmology/TestingGravity2023/), selected papers will be published in this Special Issue of Particles, an MDPI open access journal. Manuscripts submitted to this Special Issue should contain original work or be a review of the field of expertise of the author(s). All submissions will be peer reviewed by internationally recognized experts.
“Testing Gravity 2023” is the 4th in a series that aims to bring together leading experts on various ways of testing the laws of gravity. Testing gravity remains a topical theme because of the unexplained nature of dark matter and dark energy in addition to the long-standing failure to reconcile gravity with quantum physics. TG2023, similarly to the previous meetings in 2015, 2017, and 2019, will feature the latest updates from gravitational wave and astrophysical observatories, lab-based experiments, as well as discussions of recent theoretical advances. The conference aims to provide theorists working on extensions of General Relativity with a realistic perspective on what aspects of their theories can be tested. On the other hand, experimentalists and observers will get a chance to learn new ideas that can be tested using their experiments.
We invite you to submit accounts of original research relevant to this topic for publication in this Special Issue of Particles. The article processing charge (APC) for submissions from the conference will be waived, meaning that publication will be free of charge.

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. Particles 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 1600 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
