Fortschritte der Physik

We are delighted to announce the publication of a special issue of Fortschritte der Physik - Progress of Physics with the title Quantum Physics with Non-Hermitian Operators: Theory and Experiment. The focus of this issue is on (i) discussion and description of unexpected experimental results obtained in different fields of physics that could not be explained, or are not easily treated, in standard quantum mechanics with Hermitian operators, (ii) description of open quantum systems (and systems equivalent to them) embedded into a well-defined environment of scattering wavefunctions, and (iii) discussion of generic features such as the role of exceptional points and of dynamical phase transitions. Details can be found here.
