Registration closes 19 June 11:59 P.M. CET.
In the present edition of the "Critical stability of few-body quantum systems"
workshop the contributions shall come from a number of sub-fields like quantum chemistry, mathematical, atomic, molecular, condensed matter, hadron and nuclear physics. Each field will be represented by lively participants from many different countries with broad interests in few-body physics. A preliminary list of topics includes:
Universality in Few-Body Physics
Finite-range corrections to universality From few to many degrees of freedom
One- and two-dimensional systems
Dimensional crossover and constrained systems Multicomponent systems Effective Field Theory formulations Structure and Reactions in weakly bound systems.
We intend to have a total of 9 sessions, each session with around three speakers.
Starting on Monday (arrival on Sunday) and finishing on Friday afternoon. In each session we plan talks of 30 minutes followed by 15 minutes of discussions. After the first two talks a break of 30 minutes, and a discussion session of 30 minutes at the end.
One of the aims will be to promote discussions between experimental and theoretical colleagues.
The topical workshop "Critical Stability of Few-Body Quantum Systems" has a broad scope embracing few-body quantum systems at the edge between stability and instability, in atomic, nuclear and hadronic physics. The main purpose is to bring people together from the different communities, experimental as well as theoretical researchers, to focus on the interdisciplinary aspects of techniques, methods, concepts and ideas surpassing the specialization of the different sub-fields of physics. Inside the critical stability region many systems show universal behavior and, in spite of the difficulty to identify similarities among the approaches in several fields, the effort in this direction may be very useful. The progress in science would clearly be faster if we could "speak the same language" and immediately distribute the knowledge from one field to another. Developing collaborations crossing the sub-field barriers is an efficient method to spread new insights. The aim of this workshop is the improvement of the flux of information between the subareas of Few-Body Physics and, at the same time, between the experimental and the theoretical research.
