Dear Colleagues,
As Editor-in-Chief of the journal Universe (ISSN 2218-1997), it is my honor to invite you to join the 1st International Electronic Conference, Universe 2021: 1st Electronic Conference on Gravitation, Cosmology, Field Theory, High Energy Physics, and Astronomy, from 22 to 28 February 2021, which will enable you to share and discuss your most recent findings with the worldwide community of scientists and researchers in these fields.
At this point of restricted travel and personal contact, it is a pleasure to still be able to collaborate electronically via this online venue. This internet conference is designed to allow you to present your research to colleagues and to interact as fully as possible with all those involved in it. I also hope you will meet old friends and make new ones here. There will be many fascinating papers to spark everyone’s interest.
I hope this conference will bring together major contributions at the forefront of research in the fields of gravitation, cosmology, field theory, high energy physics, and astronomy, and I am confident that yours will be among them. Universe 2021 will make your presentation accessible to hundreds of researchers worldwide, with active engagement of the audience in question and answer sessions and discussion groups that will take place online.
Submitted abstracts will be reviewed by the conference committee. The authors of accepted contributions will be invited to produce an extended abstract for the conference proceedings along with a slide presentation of their work. Following the conference, outstanding contributions will be invited to be submitted for publication in the main journal.
The conference has been divided into ten themes. Please submit your articles as soon as possible, indicating which theme you think best fits your submission.
Session 1: General Relativity and GravitationSession 2: Quantum Field Theories
Session 3: Black Holes
Session 4: Dark Matter and Dark Energy
Session 5: High Energy Physics
Session 6: Compact Objects
Session 7: Deep-Space Probes
Session 8: The Universe of Andrei Sakharov
Session 9: Teaching Relativity and Modern Physics in General
Sessions 10: Posters
Thank you for your kind attention.
We look forward to welcoming you at this exciting meeting online.
Best regards,
Prof. Dr. Lorenzo Iorio

During the e-conference, four live sessions have been scheduled. We have invited some speakers to share their latest research. Also, a number of excellent submissions have been selected, and these works will be presented during the live sessions by the authors. During each live session, the participants will have the chance to ask questions in the “open for discussion” section.
The live sessions are free for authors. The authors who submit submissions to ECU 2021 will have priority for the registration (with no extra cost) to the live online sessions with our keynote speakers. If it is not completely full, the registration will be opened for unregistered participants.

Selected Papers from the 1st International Electronic Conference on Universe (ECU 2021)
Guest editors: James A. Isenberg, Gerald B. Cleaver, Lijing Shao, Gonzalo J. Olmo
Deadline for manuscript submissions: 30 April 2021.
Dear Colleagues,
The 1st International Electronic Conference on Universe (ECU 2021) will be held from 22 to 28 February 2021 (https://ecu2021.sciforum.net), verifying the great interest of the related community in this Conference Series.
During the event, a large number of excellent contributions covering key areas of opportunities and challenges will be presented. More specifically, the following areas were covered:
- General relativity and gravitation;
- Quantum field theories;
- Black holes;
- Dark matter and dark energy;
- High energy physics;
- Compact objects;
- Deep-space probes;
- The Universe of Andrei Sakharov;
- Teaching Relativity and Modern Physics in General
This Special Issue welcomes selected papers from the ECU 2021 that promotes and advances the exciting and rapidly changing field.
Submitted contributions will be subjected to peer review and—upon acceptance—will be published with the aim of rapidly and widely disseminating research results, developments, and applications.
Submitted manuscripts should be:
- Title and Abstract should be substantially different with that of conference paper, so that they can be differentiated in various databases.
- 50% new data should be added to make it a real and complete journal paper.
- The conference proceeding should be mentioned and discussed in the introduction section.
- Conference paper link should be provided in the cover letter.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
