FQMT22 — Frontiers of Quantum and Mesoscopic Thermodynamics 2022

FQMT’22 is the next event of the series of the previous, successful Prague conferences "Frontiers of Quantum and Mesoscopic Thermodynamics". The main goal of the conference is to contribute to a better understanding of the behavior of quantum systems out of equilibrium. To reach this aim we also need to improve our knowledge of systems in equilibrium and steady state situations. The conference will thus address foundations of quantum physics, quantum many body physics, statistical physics, and thermodynamics relying on the theoretical and experimental methods of condensed matter physics and quantum optics. The systems considered will be mainly on the order of mesoscopic (nanoscale) size, and include those of both natural and artificial origin. Special attention will be given to non-equilibrium quantum systems, physics of quantum information and manifestation of quantum effects in biological systems. Subjects from astrophysics, gravitation or cosmology related to the above scope will also be included.

Topics: Non-equilibrium quantum phenomena, Foundations of quantum physics, Quantum measurement, entanglement and coherence, Dissipation, dephasing, noise and decoherence, Many body physics, quantum field theory, Quantum statistical physics and thermodynamics, Quantum optics, Quantum simulations, Physics of quantum information and computing, Topological states of quantum matter, quantum phase transitions, Macroscopic quantum behavior, Cold atoms and molecules, Bose-Einstein condensates, Mesoscopic, nano-electromechanical and nano-optical systems, Biological systems, molecular motors and quantum biology, Cosmology, gravitation and astrophysics
