Description: These meetings of magnetologists have occurred every three years since the first symposium, held in 1999. During the past 12 years, MISM has grown, from being a local workshop, into the largest international conference on magnetism in Russia. The number of participants, and the scientific level of MISM, make it one of the most significant conferences worldwide.

Multiferroics: that is, materials which simultaneously exhibit both ferromagnetism and ferroelectricity - and also often ferroelasticity - now attract considerable attention because of the interesting physics involved and their promise for important practical applications. Typical multiferroics belong to the perovskite group of transition metal oxides, and include rare-earth manganites and ferrites. Several new multiferroic systems have been developed, during recent years, which exhibit very strong coupling between the ferroelectric and magnetic degrees of freedom. The present volume comprises both review articles, and research papers on various themes; with very little overlap. The authors of the review papers have generally kept in mind the unfamiliarity, of the field of ‘Ferroics and Multiferroics’, to newcomers. They cover the historical development of the field, and add their own contributions.

Description: This special issue of Defect and Diffusion Forum contains selected refereed papers which were presented at the 7th International Conference on Diffusion in Solids and Liquids (DSL-2011) held on the 26 to 30th June 2011 at the Hilton Vilamoura, Algarve, Portugal. The goal of the conference was to provide a unique opportunity to exchange information, to present the latest results and review burning issues in contemporary diffusion research. Young scientists were especially encouraged to attend the conference and to establish international links with established scientists.
