DESCRIPTION:The registration closed on 04 January 2026.\n \nAn open quant
 um system (OQS) describes a quantum mechanical system which interacts with
  an external environment. In general\, this interaction can significantly 
 modify the dynamics of the system leading to the phenomena of dissipation 
 and decoherence.The formalism of open quantum systems is a powerful tool t
 o describe non-equilibrium processes\, which are fundamental to many pheno
 mena in nuclear- and high-energy physics. \nLately\, there has been remar
 kable progress in the utilization of the open quantum system paradigm to m
 any challenging problems including quarkonium- and jet-physics\, neutrino 
 physics\, and cosmology\, while also emphasizing connections with quantum 
 information.With new applications of open quantum systems appearing on a d
 aily basis\, the time is ripe to bring together experts from different fie
 lds for an interdisciplinary exchange of tools and methods.\nWith this MIT
 P program we aim to address the challenges in the application of OQS metho
 ds shared among the disciplines and enable the study of new systems and ph
 enomena with this toolset. This promises to enable the study of important 
 problems in the context of high-energy physics and cosmology. \n\nhttps:/
