Correlated Quantum Matter Workshop
A two-day workshop on “Correlated Quantum Matter” is to be held in IISER Kolkata between 18-19 April 2024. The workshop would bring together leading practitioners of quantum condensed matter physics from the country and abroad to discuss the latest developments in the field.
Correlated quantum many-body systems have played an important role in our understanding of fundamental phenomena in nature from symmetry breaking to topological phases of matter. Emergent properties in these systems have led to diverse phenomena from superconductivity to spin liquids to the quantum hall effect. Correlated quantum matter is also intrinsically tied to the development of modern quantum technologies like quantum computing, quantum sensing, etc. In this context, this workshop will not only lead to a discussion on this timely topic, but it would also be a great opportunity for students and postdocs of IISER Kolkata to be exposed to the frontline research topics in this field.
Among other speakers, Prof. Mohit Randeria and Prof. Nandini Trivedi of Ohio State University, USA, will participate in the workshop and each of them will deliver a DPS colloquium (on 18 and 19 April 2024), which will also be a part of this workshop. We hope that our PhD students, postdocs, and colleagues, particularly those working in the broad area of condensed matter physics, will benefit from the informal academic discussions throughout this workshop.

Bibha Chowdhuri Memorial Lecture by Prof. Aditi Sen De
The 2nd Bibha Chowdhuri Memorial Lecture in celebration of women in science will be delivered by Prof. Aditi Sen De of Harish-Chandra Research Institute, Allahabad.
Dr. Bibha Chowdhuri was the first Indian woman to earn a Ph.D. in Physics. Her work laid down the path towards the discovery of the pion - a short-lived, unstable subatomic particle that showers from high-energy cosmic ray collisions. As a token of recognition for her contributions to astronomy and astrophysics, the International Astronomical Union has re-christened the star HD 86081 as Bibha (a yellow-white dwarf star in the constellation Sextans south of the celestial equator) after her.
Title: Quantum Networks
Abstract: The quantum theory of nature, formalized in the first few decades of the 20th century, contains elements that are fundamentally different from those required in the classical description of nature. Based on the laws of quantum mechanics, in recent years, several discoveries have been reported that can revolutionize the way we think about modern technologies. I will talk about such inventions in the field of communication and some of our recent results in building quantum networks.
