This workshop focuses on the study of co-localization and strong coupling between elementary wave excitations in condensed matter systems, including spins, magnons, phonons, and photons. By exploring the shared dynamics of these hybrid particles, the conference aims to advance our understanding of their interactions and their potential applications in next-generation information technologies. Participants will discuss recent breakthroughs, emerging challenges, and future directions in the field, with a particular emphasis on the integration of these phenomena into scalable devices. The workshop will serve as a platform for fostering collaboration and innovation at the intersection of condensed matter physics and quantum information technology.

Magnetismus, Spintronik,    Festkörperphysik

This binational Wilhelm and Else Heraeus Seminar organized by ICTP-SAIFR will bring together primarily scientists from Brazil and Germany to discuss both the challenges and the prospects for quantum gases in spatial dimensions lower than three. Scientists from other parts of the world will also participate and provide a global perspective of recent developments. In addition to plenary sessions, where leading experts on quantum gases will present their latest work, the seminar will have contributed talks by some young participants and poster sessions to disseminate widely the research of all attendees.

Altermagnetism has emerged as a truly interdisciplinary topic due to its many connections with interesting problems in condensed matter physics. Indeed, the various communities working on this topic include spintronics, strongly correlated electronic systems, topological matter, superconductivity, frustrated magnetism, and quantum criticality. Moreover, the many investigations on this problem have encompassed a broad range of techniques and methods involving computational physics (e.g., first-principles, dynamical mean-field theory), theoretical physics (e.g., microscopic models, phenomenology, spin-group theory), and experimental physics (e.g., spectroscopy, anomalous Hall effect, x-ray scattering).

Spin Phenomena Interdisciplinary Center (SPICE)

Unconventional superconductors are materials that exhibit superconductivity beyond the framework of BCS or Migdal–Eliashberg theories, often characterized by novel broken symmetries in addition to the usual U(1) gauge symmetry breaking. A parallel development has recently emerged in magnetism with the discovery of altermagnets—materials with collinear but compensated magnetic order that defy classification as either conventional ferromagnets or antiferromagnets. Together, these phenomena highlight some of the most exciting frontiers in quantum materials research, offering both fundamental challenges and promising pathways toward future quantum technologies. This workshop will bring together leading experimentalists and theorists to discuss the latest developments in unconventional superconductors and magnets across a broad range of materials platforms.

Atomphysik,    Optik und Laser

The Young Atom Opticians (YAO) conference is a yearly gathering run by PhD students and aimed at Master’s and early PhD students in atomic, molecular, optical, and quantum physics. Since 1995, it has traveled across Europe, bringing together young researchers in an informal and friendly setting. YAO is less about formal presentations and more about connecting with peers, sharing ideas, and building a strong international network within the AMO and quantum community.

Since the first experimental realization of Bose-Einstein condensation in ultracold atomic gases in 1995, there have been several substantial breakthroughs. Today, systems of bosonic or fermionic quantum gases allow for an unprecedented high level of experimental control concerning all ingredients of the underlying many-body Hamiltonian. Therefore, ultracold atomic or molecular quantum gases are considered to be ideal both for quantum simulators and quantum computations. Thus, they are best capable to simulate difficult problems in quantum many-body physics as they occur in condensed matter physics and other fields of physics and at the same time allow for developing architectures for quantum computers, which will ultimately surpass classical computers. In response to the occurrence of many new research directions in recent years, it is highly desirable to give a coherent overview over the diverse facets which are now appearing, and to reflect upon the future perspectives of the field.
