About the Workshop

The area of quantum matter has developed into a playground of competing interactions and various electronic and magnetic orders, which has been observed and discovered through the emergence of various hot topics like topological states, 2D materials, and Dirac and Weyl interactions. In the end, the combination of these discoveries has helped shape quantum matter into a new and exciting area of condensed matter physics.

Some of the most interesting discoveries in the area of Dirac quantum matter are being made when systems are driven out of their equilibrium, where the static state is perturbed by an outside source or field. From this, surprising properties are discovered and investigated using time-dependent stimuli to force systems into their excited states, which provides the basis for dynamic quantum matter.

Developments in dynamic Dirac quantum matter have been stimulated by a host of new ideas based on unconventional correlated, entangled, and topological orders, where they struggle to be understood and modeled with traditional approaches, but also offer great potential for new functionalities tuned by varying external conditions. Microscopic features like correlations, entanglement, and novel orders in time domain like odd frequency superconductivity and topology determine the properties of quantum materials. These interactions determine transient correlations and coherences in quantum materials and matter.

In this conference, the recent developments in the dynamic new and exciting field of quantum matter will be showcased. At this conference, key researchers active in a broad range of topics will come together and provide the latest details into the realization of these materials. Overall, the goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers from all over the globe to discuss and highlight emerging topics and ideas that help drive our understanding of quantum matter and that are stimulating the growth of Dynamic Dirac Quantum Matter.
