About the workshop

Venue

Congressi Stefano Franscini (CSF), Monte Verita, Ascona, Switzerland

Organizing Committee

Prof. Dr. Andrey Zheludev (ETH Zürich)
Dr. Kirill Povarov (ETH Zürich)

Topics

  • Frustrated systems
  • Low dimensional systems
  • Disordered systems
  • Spin-orbit physics
  • Multiferroics and magneto-elastic effects in quantum magnets

Quantum magnetism is a mature yet very active field of modern solid state physics, much boosted by F.D.M. Haldane’s 2016 Nobel Prize.
Recent breakthroughs in new materials synthesis, new experimental measurement techniques and new numerical methods have lead to a
vast diversification of the field . Old standing puzzles got solved but many more complex problems suddeny appeared to be within our
reach. Which directions of research are at the moment the most promising and exciting?

The aim of the “Trends in Quantum Magnetism” Workshop is to bring together the leading researchers from Switzerland and across the
globe to promote an exchange of new results, new ideas and new challenges in both theory and experiment.
