From March 11th to March 15th, BU Physics will be hosting the Non-thermal Quantum Systems Conference. This conference, located in the Rajen Kilachand Center, will emphasize short talks, long open discussion periods and a large number of junior participants including speakers.

This BU-CUNY workshop continues in this tradition and aims to bring together a group of creative experts, young and old, to push the non-equilibrium frontier. In this workshop there will be two main topics which will be discussed. The first is the attempt to unify concepts between classical mechanics and high energy physics on glassiness, scrambling, chaos and thermalization in the context of many-body quantum systems. The second topic is theoretical ideas in dynamical control of quantum information motivated by recent exciting experiments in superconducting and quantum optical platforms demonstrating small-scale coherent quantum computation.

The workshops will be organized by BU Physics professors Chris Laumann, Anushya Chandran, Anatoli Polkovnikov, BU Physics student Phillip Weinberg as well as CUNY professors Vadim Oganesyan and Sarang Gopalakrishnan.
