Each author summarizes the introductory section in simple terms but in detail for beginners in this field. We wish that many readers familiarize themselves with the general concepts and features of nonlinear and nonequilibrium (or out of equilibrium) complexity theory, which govern a variety of unique dynamic behaviors observed in chemistry, physics, life science and other fields, so that they may discover novel symmetry-breaking phenomena in their own research areas.Research & information: generalbicsscamplification of chiralitydynamic crystallizationDiels–Alder reactionabsolute asymmetric synthesisconglomerateracemizationattrition-enhanced deracemizationViedma ripeningreversible reactionenantiomorphic crystalpolymorphismoff-shell quantum fieldspace-like momentumdressed photonmicro-macro dualityClebsch dual fieldMajorana fermionthe cosmological termWeyl tensordark energydark matterphotomechanicalcrystalright–left symmetry breakingchiral symmetry breakingdissipative structureenergy conversionmechanical workself-oscillationcollective dynamicsautonomous motionself-replicationautocatalysismolecular motormolecular robotamorphous-to-crystal phase transformationdetection of real-time symmetry breakingmechanofluorochromismfluorescence spectroscopyliquid-like clusterevaporative crystallizationquartz crystal microbalancetwo-step nucleation modelchiralcircularly polarized luminescence (CPL)magnetic circularly polarized luminescence (MCPL)spontaneous resolutionchiralityderacemizationpreferential enrichmentthermodynamicsphase diagramskineticssymmetry breakingferroelectricityantiferrolelectricitysubphasesresonant X-ray scatteringvapochromismfluorescencemacrocyclesinclusion crystalshost–guest chemistryspin symmetry breakingmagnetic liquid crystalsmagneto-LC effectnitroxide radicalssuperparamagnetic domainspin glass stateelastic organic crystalsmechanical deformationπ-conjugated moleculesphotoluminescencedeformation-induced photoluminescence changesbiomolecular handednesscircular dichroismcircularly polarized luminescencenon-equilibriumcolloidconjugated polymerResearch & information: generalTamura Ruiedt1338982Tamura RuiothBOOK9910673906503321Chemical Symmetry Breaking3059371UNINA
