Robert's correct the StandardAnalyzer will split the input text at the "&&"
characters so your index will not contain them. As in this simple example:
StandardAnalyzer aa = new StandardAnalyzer();
System.IO.StringReader srs = new System.IO.StringReader("aaa bbb test&&test ccc
ddd");
Lucene.Net.Analysis.TokenStream ts = aa.TokenStream(srs);
Lucene.Net.Analysis.Token tk;
while( (tk = ts.Next()) != null )
{
System.Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Token: \"{0}\": S:{1}, E:{2}",
tk.TermText(),tk.StartOffset(),tk.EndOffset()));
}
The output looks like this:
Token: "aaa": S:0, E:3
Token: "bbb": S:4, E:7
Token: "test": S:8, E:12
Token: "test": S:14, E:18
Token: "ccc": S:19, E:22
Token: "ddd": S:23, E:26
You can see that the "&&" characters were identified as separators and two
"test" tokens were emitted not the single "test&&test" you expected.

I believe the issue has nothing to do with your query
syntax. StandardAnalyzer is skipping chars like "&" during
the indexing process, so you can't search for them.
