| Description |
An ICTP virtual meeting
Stochastic thermodynamics has revolutionized our understanding of far-from-equilibrium statistical physics over the last few decades and continues to result in profound, powerful results, ranging from fluctuation theorems to speed-limit theorems to thermodynamic uncertainty relations.
With this series of online workshops, we aim to provide a platform to everyone with an interest in stochastic thermodynamics to present and discuss their current research, fostering collaboration among communities and promoting the field to a broad range of scientists. We aim to have a wide-ranging cross-section of the stochastic thermodynamics community present their current research in one forum. We aim to support academics from under-represented groups working in the field, and we especially encourage junior researchers to submit their work for 10 minute lightning talks. Topics:
Speakers: TUTORIALS Massimiliano Esposito (U Luxembourg) Hugo Touchette (Stellenbosch University) Vijay Balasubramanian (UPenn) FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES Colloquium: Edgar Roldán (ICTP) Aljaz Godec (MPI NAT) Salambo Dago (ENS Lyon) Olga Movilla Miangolarra (UC Irvine) Jan Korbel (CSH Vienna) PHYSICS & CHEMISTRY Colloquium: Hong Qian (U Washington) John Bechhoefer (Simon Fraser U) Daniel Busiello (MPIPKS) Sosuke Ito (Tokyo U) Annwesha Dutta (IISER Tirupati) COMPUTATION AND INFORMATION PROCESSING Colloquium: John Baez (UC Riverside) Gülce Kardeş (CU Boulder) Adolfo del Campo (U Luxembourg) Shin-Ichi Sasa (Kyoto U) QUANTUM STOCHASTIC THERMODYNAMICS Colloquium: Sebastian Deffner (UMBC) Kay Brandner (U Nottingham) Dvira Segal (U Toronto) Nicole Yunger Halpern (U Maryland) Obinna Cosmas Abah (QUB) BIOPHYSICS AND ACTIVE MATTER Colloquium: Christian Maes (KU Leuven) Nikta Fakhri (MIT) Michael Hinczewski (CWRU) Pieter Rein ten Wolde (AMOLF) Riccardo Rao (CeMSIIS) Call for Contributed Abstracts: All applicants are encouraged to submit an abstract for a poster presentation and/or a contributed talk.
