Scope:
Held as an Australian workshop of ICAM-I2CAM Institute for Complex Adaptive Matter: http://icam-i2cam.org/
The aim of the workshop is
to build on initial discussions between the condensed matter
and quantum physics community in 2013. We hope to have a cross-fertilisation of researchers
working in the areas of quantum gases, quantum information,
and condensed matter physics.
Note that there are a limited number of
places available - please make sure you apply before the
deadline so that you are considered.
The
scope is a range of topics on emergent phenomena, including
but not limited to:
- Novel superfluids
- Topological
matter
- Quantum
magnetism
- Strongly correlated
systems
- Nonequilibrium
quantum dynamics
- Quantum turbulence
- Quantum thermodynamics
There will be a number
of invited speakers, and contributed talks, with plenty of
time allocated for discussion.
There will be poster sessions as well.

alternative accommodation arrangements.
We have configured the research station
to accommodate a total of 50 people.
- Twin share, with shared ensuite bathroom (or Postgrad Cabin, Researcher House): 30 people.
- Quad share: 20 people (PhD students/postdocs).
You will be able to

accommodate your preferences. If this is not to your
taste, you may organize external accommodation (at extra cost).
Plenty of accommodation is available at Point Lookout

submission and preregistration
Even if you do not want to present a talk
or poster, you should submit the preregistration form before
the deadline of 18 September 2014 so that you are considered
for the workshop.Abstract submission has now closed.
Please remember that this is a cross-disciplinary workshop. If you would like to present a talk - please make sure you provide an introduction to your field of research, and discuss its context and some of its big questions. How can researchers from other fields contribute to your burning questions? This should be reflected in your abstract submission. Please do not use talk slots to discuss your latest narrow or technical research results. However, you are strongly encouraged to ALSO present your latest research in the poster sessions.
