Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recently, chiral magnetic effects have drawn a great deal of attention in relativistic heavy ion collisions as a possible way to detect the P and CP violation of strong interaction. Chiral magnetic effects and many related topics, e.g., the novel chiral transports, chiral magnetic waves, and chiral kinetic theory, etc., have been widely studied from theoretical and experimental sides. The applications of those chiral phenomena have also extended to astrophysics and condensate matter physics. However, it is still challenging to get a clear signal of P and CP violation of strong interaction through chiral magnetic effects in relativistic heavy ion collisions due to the contributions from background interference. Therefore, new strategies, methods, and possible applications are urgently needed. This Special Issue is aimed at providing selected reviews on current developments related to chiral phenomena and selected contributions on the new strategies and methods.

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.
