Conference Description
The Correlated Electron Systems GRC is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes a diverse range of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide, concentrating on the latest developments in the field. The conference is five days long and held in a remote location to increase the sense of camaraderie and create scientific communities, with lasting collaborations and friendships. In addition to premier talks, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field.
The physics of quantum systems with many interacting electrons holds a myriad of surprises and challenges. Conventional paradigms of condensed matter physics, such as concepts of broken symmetry and electronic quasiparticles, appear to have limited validity as a general framework to discuss these systems. This conference will focus on modern developments in a quest to understand the many ways in which correlated many particle quantum systems defy familiar paradigms. Examples include unconventional insulators and metals characterised by either novel quasiparticles or an absence of quasiparticle excitations. Topics to be covered will include recent results in areas that have proven long-standing mysteries such as high temperature superconductors, as well as in nascent fields such as quantum simulators. Sessions will include discussions of new experimental methods/probes that are well suited to exploring unconventional physics. We have also scheduled time to cover late-breaking developments.
We particularly encourage participation from groups under-represented in science and engineering.
The conference chair is currently developing their preliminary program, which will include 9 sessions and the names of the invited speakers and discussion leaders for each of these sessions. Please check back regularly for updates to this information.
