School on Emergent Phenomena in Non-Equilibrium Quantum Many-Body Systems
June 26 – July 7, 2023
São Paulo, Brazil
ICTP-SAIFR/IFT-UNESP
Home
The design of quantum many-body states which elude conventional thermodynamics has become a reality in a number of experimental platforms operating in the far-from-equilibrium regime. This school will gather key experts working on non-equilibrium dynamics ranging from driven open systems to AMO platforms, encompassing interdisciplinary boundaries with high energy physics.
The goal of the school is to provide education both at the basic and advanced level on mainstream themes in current research on non-equilibrium quantum many body systems: (1) dissipative engineering of quantum correlated states at the interface of AMO and solid state; (2) perspectives on theoretical progress in quantum many body information to advance the field beyond the noisy intermediate scale quantum (NISQ) device age; (3) modern ultracold atoms and quantum optics simulators; (4) connections from condensed matter and high energy physics (in particular holography) in the study of scrambling dynamics of quantum information. Our aim is to provide a strong starting package to students interested in taking their first steps in the blossoming research area of quantum many-body dynamics.
There is no registration fee and limited funds are available for travel and local expenses.

Additional Information
BOARDING PASS: All participants, whose travel has been provided or will be reimbursed by ICTP-SAIFR, should bring the boarding pass upon registration. The return boarding pass (PDF, if online check-in, scan or picture, if physical) should be sent to secretary@ictp-saifr.org by e-mail.
COVID-19: Fully vaccinated Brazilians and foreigners are required to present proof of vaccination, printed or electronically before boarding an international flight. Not vaccinated and not fully vaccinated passengers have to present a medical certificate with a negative test result before entering the country. Tests should be taken up to 24 hours before boarding.
Visa information: Nationals from several countries in Latin America and Europe are exempt from tourist visa. Nationals from Australia, Canada, Japan and USA are exempt from tourist visa until October 1st, 2023. Please check here which nationals need a tourist visa to enter Brazil.
Accommodation: Participants, whose accommodation will be provided by the institute, will stay at The Universe Flat. Hotel recommendations are available here.
How to reach the Institute: The school will be held at ICTP South American Institute, located at IFT-UNESP, which is across the street from a major bus and subway terminal (Terminal Barra Funda). The address which is closer to the entrance of the IFT-UNESP building is R. Jornalista Aloysio Biondi, 120 – Barra Funda, São Paulo. The easiest way to reach us is by subway or bus, please find instructions here.
