Conical intersections are to be found in a range of different physical systems, and it seems that the importance of them has often been analysed independently in the different communities. Thus,the physics of conical intersections can be regarded as yet another example for where the wheel has been reinvented. Even if the concept of conical intersections as such is the same in the different communities, there are still differences between conical intersections in say molecular and in condensed matter physics. In this monograph we gather and discuss various systems where conical intersections have played an important role. The similarities and differences are highlighted, as well as drawing attention to the origin of the physics.
