Workshop - Topological Quantum Matter in Magnetic and Synthetic Platforms
Topological quantum matter plays a central role in both modern condensed matter and quantum statistical physics and has many exciting applications including, potentially, quantum computation. This workshop will bring together researchers working on various fronts of topological quantum matter, both experimentally and theoretically, and to stimulate interdisciplinary discussions and collaborations.

Workshop - Non-equilibrium Many-body Physics Beyond the Floquet Paradigm
Understanding non-equilibrium quantum many-body systems is a key challenge in modern physics. Exploring dynamics through periodic (Floquet) drives has been a significant approach, revealing intriguing Floquet phases with unique properties. Recent research has extended to quasi-periodic and structured-random driving, and explored the interplay between Floquet driving and dissipation. This workshop aims to brin togehter researchers in this dynamic field, discussing foundational concepts and sharing the latest ideas, with a focus on classifying non-thermal pathways and broadening the scope of non-equilibrium phases of matter.

Quantum Computing: What Does the Computer of the Future Look Like?
The quantum computer is associated with hopes for a revolution in the digital world: It is expected to solve tasks that even the largest supercomputers today fail to tackle. By using quantum bits, it could become faster, more accurate, and more efficient than any existing computer. But how does a quantum computer actually work? What challenges does research face? And what opportunities, but also risks, does it entail for politics, economy, and society? These and other questions will be discussed by the director of the Walther Meißner Institute of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities (BAdW), Stefan Filipp, the theoretical physicist Ronny Thomale, and the academy member and experimental physicist Laurens W. Molenkamp – and they would be delighted to discuss them with you!
