Early 2024 we had our first yearly meeting in Ljubljana, during which all students presented their projects. The rest of the year was packed with training activities; the students traveled to five different countries to attend the various courses organized by the consortium. Moreover, the planned QLUSTER summer school took place at the Enrico Fermi International School of Physics in July 2024.
The fourth QLUSTER training series will take place September 16-20 2024, in Innsbruck, Austria. This five-day event will consist of three obligatory QLUSTER course modules, together with a one-day assitance to the IOQOI conference.
This is the program.
Ultrasoft interactions lead to the observed complexity and analogies in the dynamics, structure, and response to external drives of very different entities such as complex polymers, soft colloids, Rydberg atoms in optical lattices, or vortex matter in superconductors. Despite similarities in phenomena and methods, an effort to bring distinct communities in classical and quantum soft matter together has not been yet undertaken. QLUSTER aims at advancing fundamentals beyond the state of the art, creating permanent ties between such communities. In this newsletter we give you an overview of activities and scientific output of our first year.
