Asia Pacific-Nordita Meeting on Quantum Matter

We will host a APCTP-Nordita one week workshop with the focus on Quantum Matter. Asia Pacific Center for Theoretical Physics (APCTP) and Nordita are conducting a joint workshop on Quantum Matter to explore recent developments and new connections between condensed matter and high energy physics

What it is about

Recent exciting developments in topological matter, newly discovered AdS and condensed matter connections, advances in quantum materials and machine learning applications to quantum matter open opportunities for a joint research in these directions. The aim of the meeting is to bring together researchers working on different aspects of entanglement and dynamics in quantum matter. We aim in a collaborative effort to distill the key aspects and develop common approaches to these concepts. For the online meeting we plan to have short talks and a longer general discussion for each of the sessions (below).

Quantum materials hold a promise as an important class to expand the class of materials for sensors used in a search for Dark matter. We will have lectures dedicated to the impact QM might have on a search for DM.

While the workshop will focus on theoretical aspects we will seek connections with  the experiments  on new probes of matter, most prominently, MAX iV and ESS, that are capable of revealing a new and exciting behavior of quantum matter at the short time scale with high spatial resolution.

 

Goals

The aim of the meeting is to bring together researchers working on different aspects of entanglement and dynamics in quantum matter. We aim in a collaborative effort to distill the key aspects and develop common approaches to these concepts. We expect to have few speakers from each of these fields, with plenty of discussions in a small scale meeting with an open and interactive atmosphere.

While the workshop will focus on theoretical aspects we will seek connections with  the experiments  on new probes of matter, most prominently, MAX iV and ESS, that are capable of revealing a new and exciting behavior of quantum matter at the short time scale with high spatial resolution.
