This volume reports on the latest developments in the field of superfluidity. The phenomenon has had a tremendous impact on the fundamental sciences as well as a host of technologies. In addition to metals and the helium liquids, the phenomenon has now been observed for photons in cavities, excitons in semiconductors, magnons in certain materials and cold gasses trapped in high vacuum. It very likely exists for neutrons in a neutron star and, possibly, in a conjectured quark state at their centre. Even the universe itself can be regarded as being in a kind of superfluid state. All of these topics are discussed by experts in the respective subfields.
