Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The concept of symmetry is fundamental in constructing a theoretical model in field theory and is strongly implemented in the dynamics of the observables associated with that theory.

Starting from the global symmetries associated with particles or fields and moving to the more intricate local symmetries that extend to the space-time continuum, symmetries or their breaking are central to the progress made in theoretical physics. For example, the spontaneous breaking of the electroweak group in the standard model is crucial for endowing all particles with masses and has been spectacularly confirmed at the LHC.

The aim of the present Special Issue is to present the advances in field theories regarding the role of known symmetries or the implementation of new ones in modern field theories.

We are soliciting contributions (research and review papers) concerning local or global symmetries and their role in theoretical high-energy or gravitational physics, including, but not limited to, the following:

  • An extension to the Poincare algebra and  recent advances in supersymmetry;
  • Space-time extensions with their symmetries;
  • Dualities and equivalences in field theories, either particle or gravitational;
  • The modern role of gauge symmetry with applications;
  • Conservation laws in gravity, including new concepts and advances;
  • New geometrical structures and symmetries in field theories.

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.

Abstract
We investigate Collins asymmetry in the Λ hyperon produced semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering (SIDIS) process based on the kinematical region of Electron-ion collider in China (EicC) and Electron–ion collider (EIC) within the transverse momentum dependence (TMD) factorization framework at next-to-leading-logarithmic order.

We investigate Collins asymmetry in the Λ hyperon produced semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering (SIDIS) process based on the kinematical region of Electron-ion collider in China (EicC) and Electron–ion collider (EIC) within the transverse momentum dependence (TMD) factorization framework at next-to-leading-logarithmic order. The asymmetry is contributed by the convolution of the target proton transversity distribution function and the Collins function of the final-state Λ hyperon. The TMD evolution effect of the corresponding parton distribution functions (PDFs) and fragmentation functions (FFs) is considered with the help of parametrization of the non-perturbative Sudakov form factors for the proton PDFs and Λ fragmentation functions. We apply the parametrization of the collinear proton transversity distribution function and the model results of Λ Collins function from the diquark spectator model as the inputs of the TMD evolution to numerically calculate Collins asymmetry in Λ produced SIDIS process at the kinematical configurations of EIC and EicC. It can be shown that the asymmetry is significant and can be measured at EIC and EicC. The flavor dependence of transversity distribution functions could be further constrained by studying the Λ hyperon produced SIDIS process in the future to improve our understanding of the spin structure within nucleons.
