Aims and Scope | ||||
Natural science and technology are
increasingly governed by quantum phenomena. For the world as a whole as
well as in connection with its details, matter is of basic relevance
having properties that are fundamentally based on quantum laws. The
quantum idea connects all physical aspects and effects at the ultimate
level on which the properties of the world emerge. Therefore quantum
matter is in the focus when we observe phenomena in natural science and
also when we develop sophisticated technologies. Clearly, within the
frame of usual, macroscopic technological constructions (cars,
mechanical machines, etc.) we do not need the quantum picture, but all
those constructions are based on materials whose properties are
fundamentally dictated by the quantum laws. The quantum picture is
equally important for each relevant phenomenon in the world, that is, it
is essential from gravity to materials science. The journal QUANTUM
MATTER would like to reconcile all these different aspects that
appear in connection with theory, experiments and technologies; quantum
matter in connection with all its aspects will be in the focus. On the
other hand, the existing basic quantum laws seem not be formulated in
final form. This is particularly reflected by the fact that more than
eighty years after its formulation the interpretation of the quantum
formalism is still a controversial problem and divides the physical
community into numerous opposing schools of thought. There is an immense
diversity of opinion and huge variety of interpretations, and this is
unsatisfactory. The journal Quantum Matter is also open for
research articles that deal with the basic laws of quantum theory and
the interpretation of the formalism. Quantum Matter covers all
theoretical, experimental and technological aspects from cosmology to
materials science.
